THQ Wireless Presents Two New WWE Mobile Games

THQ Inc. and JAKKS Pacific, Inc. announced that THQ Wireless Inc., a subsidiary of THQ, plans to launch WWE RAW and WWE SmackDown, the newest officially licensed mobile games based on the top-selling World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) brand, this fall on major carriers in the U.S. and Europe.

The WWE RAW and SmackDown titles deliver to wireless devices the hard-hitting and authentic action that wrestling fans from around the globe have come to expect.

WWE RAW features the hottest WWE Superstars, complete with their own signature moves. In addition, for the first time on wireless devices, fans can also play as a WWE Diva, such as Stacy Keibler, VictoriaTM or Trish Stratus. Each Superstar has their own abilities based on five performance categories that enable the player to match move for move with their favorite WWE Superstars. These categories are: strength, submission, endurance, technique and speed. The game is scheduled to launch worldwide on all carriers and is expected to be featured on both Cingular and Sprint/Nextel.

SmackDown from THQ Wireless features seven of the biggest SmackDown Superstars complete with their own signature moves. Each Superstar has their own abilities based on five performance categories: strength, submission, endurance technique and speed. Unique to this game, fans can create their own SmackDown Superstar by selecting the look and performance ratings of the character. The player can also execute classic moves such as the knee strike, spinning kick, back chop, roundhouse kick, kitchen sink and throat thrust; plus character specific "secret moves." The game is anticipated to launch worldwide on all carriers, and is planned to be featured on Verizon Wireless.

Also scheduled for release this fall from THQ and JAKKS Pacific, players can enter the ring for the fight of their lives in WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2006 for the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system and PlayStation Portable (PSP) handheld entertainment system in December. Offering the deepest and most realistic experience to date in the series, WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2006 includes updated fighting and stamina systems, improved graphics and integrated motion capture technology. Players can also take advantage of a power-packed roster featuring new WWE Legends, new and updated game play modes, 100 different match types, a 3D locker room, engaging online play and unparalleled connectivity options between the PS2 and PSP versions of the game.
