‘Real American’ Hulk Hogan is to front a brand new Kinect title from Majesco this autumn.
Called Hulk Hogan’s Main Event, the game "is the first performance-based wrestling game on Kinect for Xbox 360" and "lets players train with mentor Hulk Hogan as they build their own wrestling personalities and learn the art of showmanship to win over the crowd".
Players will be required to pull famous Hulk Hogan poses in front of the Kinect camera as their on-screen avatar climbs the competitive pro-wrestling ladder.
Listen up, people! You will feel the power of Hulkamania when you step into this game,” the Hulkster himself stated, no doubt flexing his 24-inch Pythons at the time.
Whether you are taking the damage or selling the pain, this game will let you unleash your inner wrestler as you hype up the crowd while putting the hurt on anyone that stands in your way!”
Majesco’s far less muscly CEO Jesse Sutton added: Hulk Hogan is much more than a wrestling star; he’s a sports entertainment icon with a huge personality, a massive following on Spike’s IMPACT WRESTLING, and immediate recognition across generations of fans.
Partnering with the Hulkster for Hulk Hogan’s Main Event is a dream come true and we’re looking forward to releasing a no holds barred motion-based experience that offers a full suite of over-the-top moves.”
The game is being developed by Panic Button and will be shown off at E3 by Hulk Hogan himself.
