Of pants and penguins.

The sequel to PSP platformer Prinny: Can I Really Be The Hero? has been pegged for release early next year, Sony has confirmed.

Titled, bewilderingly, Prinny 2: Dawn of Operation Panties, Dood!, the sequel to the horrendously cute, rock hard original sees the titular penguin head off in search of a set of underwear belonging to the Demon Lord Etna.

Why? Because if your Prinny fails, said overfiend will skin a bunch of Prinnies to make new ones. Gulp, etc.

Developed by Disgaea studio NIS, it promises all the standard sequel stuff: new stages, new abilities and new characters.

It's due on US PSPs in January 2011. No European release has been confirmed yet, but we've asked Sony for details.
