Rugby Challenge claims to feature more licenses, players and competitions than the competition. In addition, the game will feature such competitions as the Aviva Premiership, RaboDirect PRO12 and the Orange Top 14. Rugby Challenge is also the only game to own the exclusive license to the All Blacks and the Wallabies.
Alternative Software managing director Roger Hulley stated, ”We’re really pleased to be able to satisfy the huge demand from rugby fans across Europe by launching Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge on Friday October 14. Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge isn’t just a game based on international rugby, but is also for Welsh, Irish, Scottish English and French rugby club fans with the official licenses of the Aviva Premiership, RaboDirect PRO12, the Orange TOP 14, in fact every leading European rugby club is officially licensed within the game.” Hulley added, ”With more features, more licenses, more players and more competitions than any other rugby game available, Jonah Lomu Rugby Challenge will be the return to form that Rugby and video game fans have been hoping for.”
