World Championship Boxing Manager 2 brings a classic game back and much more

World Championship Boxing Manager 2 will be released on January 17, 2022. This sequel to the 1991 classic by MegaCat Games and Ziggurat Interactive brings back the tycoon and sports simulation gameplay that fans have always known and will always love.

Players will look to sign promising amateur boxers and manage them all the way to the top of the mountain. Of course, winning the world championship is the goal, but the boxers can't get there by themselves.

That's where you come in. You will help schedule your boxer's training regime. Promoting your pugilist and hiring the right team for them will be the key to success. Keeping your boxers popular, fit, and fight-ready is paramount for having a winning streak. You can even hire a few unorthodox members to keep things fresh and interesting in your fight team.

The game also features an extensive skill system, where you can build the boxer you think will be the next big thing. Do you want them to be a one-hit wonder like James "Buster" Douglas, a powerhouse like George Foreman, or do you want the stamina to stick it out until the end like Muhammad Ali? Build your fighter the way you want to.

This boxing simulator has a gorgeous pixel art style, and the addition of a fight cam lets you can watch matches in real time as your team tries to climb to the top of the boxing world.
