Victorious Boxers 2 to hit U.S. shores in just a few days

The original Victorious Boxers (released on PS2 way back in 2001) was a genuinely enjoyable boxing title that, despite glowing reviews and overall outstanding quality of the product, went by almost completely unnoticed due to lackluster marketing and the fact that it was a game based on a completely unknown license in the U.S. Titled Victorious Boxers: Ippo’s Rode to Glory and based on a popular Japanese manga series known as Hajime No Ippu in it’s native land, it was one superb boxing title that, despite being five years old, still stands up to the test of time in terms of overall quality and game play.

Finally, the long awaited U.S follow up to Ippo’s Rode to Glory will hit our shores this Halloween. Titled Victorious Boxers 2: Fighting Spirit, this sequel will feature a staggering seventy (!!!) characters to choose from and an enormous story mode with over sixty fights. Even better is the fact that Fighting Spirit will also ship with a nice budget price - $10. Yep, you read that right – Victorious Boxer’s 2 will be available to purchase for a mere ten bucks. Hopefully Victorious Boxers 2 will receive better success at retail due to its incredibly cheap price, but you might want to consider buying a copy on launch day due to the fact that it will probably receive an extremely limited print run.
