Cockpit, Austin, TX - November 1, 2007 - Gamecock Media Group announced today that Blazing Lizard's Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball will debut on Xbox LIVE Arcade on Xbox 360 in early 2008. The title looks to answer the age-old question of which much-revered profession is better, by settling the scorewith (dodge)balls.

"It is no secret that Pirates and Ninjas have beef," stated Chris Stockman, Studio Director of Blazing Lizard. "But it turns out both have a great love for dodgeball and unique skills when it comes to playing the game. We are bringing together sworn enemies for what I can guarantee will be explosive dodgeball action."

Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball will have sea-faring thieves squaring off against stealthy martial artists in beautiful environments. The game will allow for up to eight players and offer five teams, including pirates and ninjas and three more that will announced soon. Each team has their own unique style and techniques and is hell-bent on destroying the opposition.
