Popular arcade-style boxing game Ready 2 Rumble is to enjoy a third iteration after a deal was struck to release the game on multiple platforms.
With sales of three million worldwide for its predecessors, the latest game in the series is predicted to be a global hit and now Japanese-based AKI Corporation, whose previous hits have included Def Jam and WWF Wrestlemania, have been enlisted to develop the game.
Publisher 10tacle Studios AG CEO Michele Pes explains, “With the release of Ready 2 Rumble 10tacle Studios AG is focusing on one of the major game brands in the market. The family-friendly, humourous realisation of the boxing sport is unique and an ideal supplement to our product portfolio.”
Along with the well-known phrase 'Let's Get Ready to Rumble', the publisher claims the new game will feature "excellent animation, action-packed moves and ironic commentary which have already made the predecessors top-sellers and provided enduring gaming fun".
A release date has yet to be announced.
