With the Rugby League well under way, Alternative software have timed the release of Rugby League 3 perfectly to coincide with the Rugby League main seasons, both here and in Australia.

Bring the action closer than ever, the game boosts over 80 licensed teams from competitions such as the NRL, Super League, Toyota Cup and UK Championship as well as 38 Stadia from Australia, New Zealand, UK and France. Players can also unlock bonus content in the form of different team kits, movies and many more as their statistics progress.

Team manager mode allows the user to comprehensively manage their chosen club and their country’s national team for years at a time. Players can either play the games themselves, or skip them for an auto-generated score, allowing users to purely focus on honing their management skills if they wish.

Players are able to experience not only the atmosphere but also the physicality of Rugby League in their living room with the combination of motion-captured players and the Wii remote controls.  The game also accurately simulates the tactical skill and technical elements of the sport, and features a variety of modes to test gamers to the limit.

With enhanced replay angles, match highlights and excellent in-game commentary from top Rugby League TV commentator Andrew Voss, Rugby League 3 is as close as gamers can get to the real thing.
