THQ announced today that they will be bringing the WWF to PS2 with their newest title, WWF SmackDown! 3, which will hit PS2 this summer. SmackDown! 3 is being developed by Yukes Co. of Japan, which is partially owned by THQ.
"Having sold well over four million World Wrestling Federation videogames to date on multiple platforms, the progression to PlayStation 2 will thrill our fans," stated Alison Locke, executive vice president, North American Publishing, THQ. "We can\'t wait to show off the look and feel of the World Wrestling Federation franchise on a system as powerful as PlayStation 2."
WWF SmackDown! 3 will now pick up where the others left off. It boasts 78 styles of matches, 35 superstars and over 1,000 different moves. There will be six-man tag-team matches and up to nine superstars can face off in the ring simultaneously. Players will be able to rush their opponent as they enter the ring, fight with their own tag team partner after a loss, and distract the referee before performing dastardly deeds. All of this comes complete with play-by-play commentary and a solid 60 frames per second!
Let\'s go:D
