I recently mentioned the Ready 2 Rumble Revolution A-Listers which talks about Celebrities that are in the up and coming Ready 2 Rumble game for the Wii… Well here is your chance for a “Sneak Peek” of the game which is scheduled to come out on March 17th. To check out the “Sneak Peek” just click the boxing glove above for more information.
Here’s a little bit of what to expect when the game comes out…
The hilarious Ready 2 Rumble franchise flexes its muscles for its major, star-studded return to the ring. Bringing the franchise to Wii for the first time, the game retains all the knockout features of best-sellers Ready 2 Rumble Boxing Round 1 and Round 2, while delivering a knockout punch of style and attitude. Tailored to take advantage of the motion-controlled realism of Wii, Ready 2 Rumble Revolution makes landing a punch more fun than ever. Virtual heavyweights can fight from the backstreet gym all the way to the big Las Vegas showdown with vivid new visuals bringing the five spectacular ring environments to life. The arcade experience is made even better thanks to advanced Artificial Intelligence allowing more strategic fights.
