Rugby League 2 announced for PlayStation 2 and PC

Company

Sydney, Australia - February 25, 2005 - Home Entertainment Suppliers Pty Ltd (HES) announced today the development of "Rugby League 2" for PlayStation2 and PC. The game follows on from the highly successful 2003 release "Rugby League", which debuted in Australasian charts at number one.

Building on the powerful game engine that was embraced by both gamers and people passionate about Rugby League, the game developer Sidhe Interactive has spent over 12 months creating a brand new sequel, packed with all new functionality and refined gameplay, graphics, controls, and competitions. Players, sponsors, and stadiums have all been updated to reflect the 2005 season.

"We are extremely pleased with the achievements of the first title" said David Robles, Business Development Manager for HES. "We have continued to develop our relationships with clubs, players and coaches over the past year and we are all very excited about the new product".

Adding to these comments David Gallop, CEO of the NRL said, "We're excited about the announcement of the new game as we view this as the celebration of our great game. It provides an expansion of the game that allows friends and families the chance to play in the boots of their favourite players and teams."

New features of "Rugby League 2" include -
- Multiplayer online play for all platforms, allowing competitive and friendly play over the Internet, player rankings, and statistics.
- All major teams and competitions including the NRL, SuperLeague, State of Origin, City versus Country, and a range of International Teams.
- Brand new gameplay features including ball stripping, shoulder barges, diving on and kicking the loose ball, contesting the high ball, pass to playmaker and more.
- New multi year Franchise Mode, including player contract management, injuries, judiciary, and mid season representative games.
- Highly realistic, individually modelled likenesses for over 500 players and referees.
- Lifelike animation, motion captured by Weta Digital, the VFX wizards behind The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy.

Mario Wynands, Managing Director of Sidhe Interactive, the development studio behind the title said, "Rugby League 2 will build on the strong foundation we have established, delivering an even richer and more engrossing sports gaming experience. We are committed to creating a title which fans will enjoy even more than the first".
" PlayStation 2 owners will be very excited by the quality of this game and the host of new features that have been included". says Michael Ephraim, Managing Director of Sony Computer Entertainment.

Rugby League 2 is expected for release on PlayStation?2 and PC in the second half of 2005 under "Tru Blu Games", the publishing division of HES.

  • 13. rudi - Friday, August 26, 2005 - 10:50:38 AM
    i bought the first game and i wasnt really impressed by the gameplay or the amount of restrictions it had on it when it was ment to be a replica of the modern game, but anyway rugby league 2 looks a whole lot better with new graphics, simulations and maybe the gameplay is going to be better which will give the consumer hours of fun. the only reson why i liked the first game so much was because it was a rugby league game and that is the only game in the world that i like but all i can say is that it better be improved by 100"(percent) or its just a waste of money

  • 33. Big Noel - Friday, September 23, 2005 - 3:45:50 PM
    I just heard that it was because of the Melbourne Storm not wanting to sign some contract with regards to the game......again, don't quote me on that one

    Its me again, wouldn't be stupid to to reflect the 2005 season when you release it in 2006. And if RL3 coming out Febuary 2006 what is the point of releasing a game three months after RL2. If anything if you really want to piss people off then release them at the same time next year.

Your just a spoiled little brat! And I did mean what I said earlier about you being a girl, because your sure bitchin' like one!

    Now PISS OFF unless you actually want to talk about the game.

    Moving right along are we completely sure about the release date or are we still guessing, has anyone rung the company to enquire?

    Iam blocking it out of my mind, until they ring me because I have exams over the next few weeks.

    the rugby league release date has been put off due to the outbreak of bird-flu in canada you idiots.....You can all stop bitching about when it's coming out because if you read the papers you would know that early next year would be the only safest time to release it.....

    September, then October then November then surprise, surprise December. And what happens in December- it's present time. Why release something in September when the market is going to double in December. Don't matter about what version it is- the money is going to be better for Sidhe Interactive and Sony and Tru Blu games at x-mas. GET TO YOUR GAMES STORE AND COMPLAIN. We preordered at Electronics Boutique for S100 in August- now it is being preordered for S90. Who's a sucker!!!

    man im sorry to write this down and spoil your gay conversation here guys but i hate this so called RUGBY LEAGUE 2, i havnt pre ordered this stupid game like you guys have, cause the game i pre ordered is SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2006, and its waaaaaaaaaay better and more exciting than this so called HOW TO BE GAY 2 and way better in alot of ways.

    1.The graphics in RYGBY LEAGUE 1 is 1 out of 10
    2.The way they kick is not what you guys wanted.
    3.The fans are blurry, they are not 3D
    4.And last and least its not a better game than SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2006.

    And the good things in smackdown vs raw 2006 is :

    1.The fans are 3D and realistic.
    2.The wrestlers are waaaaaay more texture and they look as if they are on tv live.
    3.And last but not least is its better than RUGBY LEAGUE 2.

    PS:SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2006 will kill RUGBY LEAGUE 2 in the ratings
    CAUSE THATS THE BOTTOM LINE CAUSE SMACKDOWN VS RAW 2006 SAID SO.

    THE GAME SHOULD BE CALLED HOW TO BE GAY 2.

    hey mate im a wrestling fan but smackdown vs raw ( the first one ) in season it was pethetic! it was repetitive and the same things happened! i can say rugby league 1 was bad but mate thats the past!
    we are talking rugby league 2 the new and improved!
    and yes im sure smackdown vs raw 2 will be good because the wrestling games are pretty high quality but dont come in a rugby league 2 forum and talk s**t about rugby league!
    P.s. wrestling is boring these days john cena is a crap wrestler and hes been the champ for how long now!
    anyway people lets talk some rugby league ey!
    i apologise on behalf of the wrestling freak!
