If you're getting tired of seeing nothing but screens in our coverage of Snoopy vs. the Red Baron updates, then this post will be a refreshing change to your doggedly tired eyes.

Namco Bandai has just announced the official date for Snoopy's takeoff in the lovable beagle's PSP game, and we got some details here on the role that players will get to take on as Snoopy hits the skies with Woodstock and the other Peanuts characters. Climb into the cockpit and take full control of Snoopy's Sopwith Camel as you hover through six free-roaming fields in search of clues as to where Red Baron's secret hideout lies.

Smart Bomb Interactive made sure that the game won't just be your ordinary Snoopy-themed flight action game by also throwing in an aircraft customization feature where you can choose among 25 weirdly comical weapons and unlockable gadgets (which includes the user-guided Woodstock missile) that you can equip your aircraft with.

The rest of the Peanuts gang will also be there, including Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy, Marcie, and Sally, giving you clues and tips on tracking down the Red Baron. The game also features more than 50 single-player and co-op missions and action-packed dogfights you'd have to claw and dig your way through. Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is scheduled for takeoff on October 24th and will sell for US $ 29.99.

Curse you, Red Baron!


If you've ever found yourself uttering strange lines like "Curse you, Red Baron!" for some unknown reason, then maybe you'll find a reason now. Snoopy is headed straight for the source to find his arch-enemy. And you're going to be in for the ride in Snoopy's greatest dogfight.

Snoopy vs. the Red Baron has much in store for the fans. Flying the Sopwith Camel plane/doghouse, you got over 50 missions ahead of you as you look for clues on where the Red Baron's hideout is. There's team co-op, versus multiplayer, and you can choose characters like Woodstock, Sally, Linus, and the rest of the Peanuts gang.

Now, the question is... Will there be an actual battle with the Red Baron? Because in the Snoopy comics, not once did they ever show the mortal enemy. Could this be the one and only chance for us to actually see him? Well, the trailer below might point to some clues on that. Watch it to find out!
