New WWE Game Heading to Stores
SmackDown! Vs RAW complete and shipping.
THQ and Jakks Pacific have announced that WWE SmackDown! Vs RAW has been completed and will be shipped to retailers across the UK soon. This year's instalment in the popular wrestling franchise pits the two WWE divisions against one another and features numerous enhancements over its predecessors.
The most important of the new features are online play and voiceovers by the WWE superstars themselves, but gamers can look forward to improved gameplay and new match types as well.
"The SmackDown! franchise is the best-selling wrestling series of all time and we're backing it with a comprehensive marketing campaign targeting both core wrestling fans and mass-market gamers alike," said THQ's Peter Dille.
WWE SmackDown! Vs RAW will be released exclusively for PlayStation 2 on 12 November.
