Don King game set for late March

2K plot a knockout

2K Games reveal to us today that Don King Boxing is on the way, and will arrive on the Wii and DS come late March. The title promises big things on the Wii in particular, and will include use of the balance board.

Plenty of 'disruptive' control systems are likely, and Don King is said to have had direct input into the game. Unsurprisingly, 2K tout the game as a winner for boxing fans as well as exercisers.

"Don King Boxing is not your prototypical boxing game. What we have done here is truly innovative and provocative," railed the boxing promoter himself.

"Our goal with 2K Sports was to create realistic motions that most closely resemble the actual training regimens of prizefighters for maximum results."

The game is out in Europe on March 27th, and stateside on March 31st.
