Remember
in
September when Ziggurat Interactive announced
World Championship Boxing
Manager 2 would arrive for Windows this year? Well that was so three months
ago, as a new announcement reveals the PC edition will launch on January 17,
2023. That's a near miss, however, so the judges may not even deduct any points.
In the meantime there's a playable demo
on Steam if you want to go a few rounds for free and
teaser trailer with a look. Here's an outline of this sports management
sequel:
Brought to life with hand-drawn 32-bit visuals, World Championship
Boxing Manager™ 2 is the official sequel to its 1991 predecessor. Players will
enlist promising amateur competitive fighters and train them from the ground up
on their path to the world championship. They’ll manage their training schedules
— including fitness training — to create the best balance for their roster. To
keep them on the path to glory, they’ll also need to hire the best staff, gain
supporters at all levels, and promote their fighters. The game features former
pro boxers Rocky Marciano™, Sugar Ray Robinson™, and Sue “Tiger Lily” Fox as
coaches within the game, along with a roster of fantastic fictional fighters,
coaches, and training staff. A well-managed team will rise to the top, but one
misstep will lead to a TKO!
