Vivid Games has announced the forthcoming release of its new game Real Boxing for iOS. Real Boxing is a brand new franchise from Vivid Games and will be available from later this year on iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. Vivid is also well underway to optimise the game in advance for iOS 6.
Powered by the Unreal Engine, Real Boxing represents a high watermark for boxing games on handheld devices. It features ultra-realistic physics as well as motion capture animation that has been filmed at state-of-the-art facilities in Poland using professional boxers. The game features an ‘over the shoulder’ perspective and players will vie to become the World Champion by taking on multiple opponents in order to claim the title. Each opponent will have their own distinctive fighting style with adaptive AI.
Real Boxing’s action will take place over four unique settings - three indoor and one outdoor - all based on real world locations. Players can also opt to personalise their boxer’s appearance, and choose from dozens of possible combinations, including skin colour, tattoos, shorts, shoes and boxing gloves. Once they have selected their character, players can then train their boxer and build him up to take on greater challenges in career mode. In so doing, they can also unlock extras, such as new equipment, opponents and clothing.
