Darmstadt (Germany) / Singapore, 2nd March 2007 - With the third iteration of the arcade style satirical boxing game "Ready 2 Rumble" 10TACLE STUDIOS AG supplements their product portfolio with yet another popular international brand. With sales of almost three million copies worldwide the two predecessors are among the most successful games in the boxing genre. Singapore subsidiary 10TACLE STUDIOS Pte Ltd. will be realising the new title together with licensor, The Buffer Partnership and executive producer Stereo Mode. The new version of "Ready 2 Rumble" is to be released for various videogame platforms. The Japanese experts from AKI Corporation, who have established themselves as one of the leading game development studios within the genre, with hits such as "Def Jam" and "WWF Wrestlemania", have been entrusted with the first development.

For many years, Michael Buffer, the most famous boxing ring announcer in history, has opened the biggest international boxing events with the phrase "Let's Get Ready to Rumble®". Moreover, "Ready 2 Rumble" stands now for one of the most popular brands in boxing games. In this game, caricatures of numerous celebrities take it to the ring, where they have to prove their fighting spirit in battles of epically hilarious proportions. Excellent animation, action-packed moves and ironic commentary have already made the predecessors top-sellers and provided enduring gaming fun.
