Midway Games Inc. has announced that it has started shipping Blitz: The League for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.
Bill Romanowski, a four-time Super Bowl champion joins Hall of Fame man Lawrence Taylor as co-cover athlete of Blitz: The League for the Xbox 360, which delivers a host of new features, including new cities, All-Star teams and achievement points.
Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway said, “With over a million games sold on current generation systems, Blitz: The League proved to the industry that fans desire an alternative in the licensor censored, watered-down sports genre. We’re excited to now offer that alternative title on the Xbox 360, complete with the award-winning quality of gameplay and entertainment Blitz: The League is recognized as having.”
Blitz: The league, the game which revolutionized pro football videogames, is back and better than ever featuring the new bad boy around the corner, Bill Romanowski, as linebacker Bruno Batagglia. Step onto the field with more customization options than ever before, with new players, cities and logos, which will help you to create what could be the greatest franchise in League history.
Take your team online and dominate your opponents using new offensive and defensive evasion moves, or try and defeat the three new division All–Star teams stacked with the best talent on the field. Get ready for another dramatic season of Blitz and experience The League like never before.
Midway’s Blitz: The League Overtime for the PSP is expected to ship in December 2006. Blitz: The League is currently also available for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system and the Xbox video game system from Microsoft.
