Drawing on the tough but accessible Tackle Alley mode in 2009's Backbreaker, Backbreaker Vengeance will give players the chance to return to the visceral experience that the original game pioneered.

NaturalMotion CEO Torsten Reil said: "Backbreaker has changed the way people play football video games. Backbreaker Vengeance for LIVE takes everything weve learnt about truly live gaming and combines it with arcade gameplay for the fastest, most instantly playable football experience anywhere."

Backbreaker Vengeance will be out on Arcade on June the 29th with a release planned for later on in the summer.
