Brief Game Description:

Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes del Ring is an action sports game based on Mexican sport of ‘Lucha Libre’ style wrestling. Featuring all of the most popular ‘luchadores’ from Mexico’s premiere wrestling federation, the game offers fans of existing wrestling franchises an evolved and unique gaming experience which is more acrobatic and fast-paced than those of existing wrestling franchises.

The game also features an evolved popularity-based scoring system which allows players to unlock increasingly acrobatic and devastating moves based on the user’s ability to gain the support of the audience through the execution of taunts aimed at humiliating one’s opponent.

Whether playing as any of the 30 real-life AAA wrestlers or as a character they have created themselves, gamers will find the experience offered in Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes del Ring to be a true evolution of the wrestling genre.

Key Game Features:
