Venom Games will be taking up development duties. You might remember them from other boxing games <em><a href="http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/cube/rocky?q=rocky">Rocky</a> </em>and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9NVlBb2muI"><em>Rocky Legends</em></a>.<br /><br />Don King had a couple of things to say regarding the game, stating "In all my years working in professional boxing, I have never seen anything come as close to recreating the thrill, the intensity, the courage and the spectacle of the sport." He goes on further to say it is "more than a game -- it is a glimpse at what life is like in and out of the ring for these incredible athletes."<br /><br />The game is currently slated for a release of spring 2008.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/12/10/2k-pulls-wraps-off-don-king-presents-prizefighter/">Joystiq</a>]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/12/11/2k-to-toss-their-own-boxing-game-into-the-ring/">2K to toss their own boxing game into the ring</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Tue, 11 Dec 2007 20:00:00 EST.
