Gaming News - March 2006
Redwood City, CA (March 28, 2006) - Konami today announced that
Rumble Roses XX has shipped to retail stores in North America for the Xbox 360.
From Konami:
Konami’s Xbox 360 debut, the follow-up to 2004’s smash hit all-female
wrestling video game features an eye-catching lineup of beautiful wrestlers with
killer moves, as well as immersive new gameplay modes and online play.
As the “best looking” Xbox 360 game, Rumble Roses XX features more than 20
playable characters including all the popular ladies from the original Rumble
Roses – such as Reiko and Dixie. Dressed in flashy outfits and equipped with
several costume changes, these wrestlers defy the imagination with all-new new
jaw-dropping character models, designed to take advantage of the graphical power
of the Xbox 360.
Rumble Roses XX features a number of modes where players pummel their way
through the game’s many characters to unlock additional opponents and items. The
new Tag Team mode allows for unprecedented group mayhem in the ring, complete
with special combo moves and character relationships that change with the
results of each match. Dangerous curves lie ahead in Battle Royal and Handicap
Match modes, while the all-new Queen’s Match lets two wrestlers battle it out
with the loser performing embarrassing acts such as the limbo. The new Street
Fight mode lets the girls take out their aggression outside of the ring,
unleashing no-holds barred moves as they attempt to knock out their opponent.
Players can now also create their own wrestlers with the game’s new Character
Customization mode, choosing from a large collection of body types, outfits,
accessories and fighting styles to build the ultimate female grappler. Rumble
Roses XX also includes online play for up to four players, so competitors from
around the country can team up with one another or go toe-to-toe.
In addition to traditional wrestling moves such as suplexes, submission holds
and elbow drops, each wrestler has specific attacks linked to her personality
that allow her to string together a number of moves to create unique
combinations. As each character gains experience in the ring, they will become
stronger, developing muscle tone and becoming more proficient in their favorite
moves. With the game’s Superstar system, characters will receive bursts of
energy as the crowd cheers them on to victory. Depending on how they wrestle,
players will develop their character into a “face” or “heel,” each with unique
moves that reflect their personality in the ring.
