It has been announced in the latest issue of V-Jump magazine that the upcoming Digimon World: Re:Digitize PlayStation Portable game will get a manga adaptation.

This will be the first Digimon game on the handheld console that will be released on July 19th. Durara!! illustrator Suzuhito Yasuda designed the characters.

The manga will be published in the monthly issues of V-jump magazine starting this June. The manga will be illustrated by manga artist, Fujino Kouhei, who was the assistant artist for the Eyeshield 21 manga.

Thanks to a certain incident, the 14-year-old bike loving protagonist got lost in the Digital World where Digital Monsters, a.k.a. Digimon lives. Nicolai "Nico" Petrov will be your rival who owns a stoic Mirage Gaogamon. Akiho Rindō is a cheerful and curious girl whose Digimon is the gentle Garudamon. Apparently, Lili from Tekken series will appear as a guest character.
