THQ and JAKKS Pacific today announced that WWE Legends of WrestleMania is currently in development for the Xbox 360 and the PLAYSTATION 3.

THQ and JAKKS Pacific today announced that WWE Legends of WrestleMania is currently in development for the Xbox 360 and the PLAYSTATION 3.
“JAKKS Pacific is pleased to introduce a new WWE videogame property to the fighting genre,” said Nelo Lucich of JAKKS Pacific. “The WWE SmackDown vs. Raw franchise has captured a collective audience of WWE fans, game enthusiasts and casual players, and we are confident that WWE Legends of WrestleMania will be poised for great success.”“We have generated significant year-over-year growth in key global territories with WWE-licensed videogames, including tremendous success with the WWE SmackDown vs. Raw franchise,” said Peter Matiss of THQ. “The development capabilities afforded by next generation hardware, combined with our established history and deep understanding of fighting videogames, allow us to leverage the strength of the WWE brand to further extend our leadership in the fighting videogame genre and bring this new property to market.” We'll pass along details once THQ releases the information, but I think it's safe to assume that the game will feature tons of classic WWE wrestlers such as Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Eddie Guerrero, etc. Now if only they could get The Ultimate Warrior and Macho Man Randy Savage.
