Hulk Hogan, the legendary professional wrestler, will soon have a mobile game made after him. Gameloft, the France-based international publisher and developer, signed a deal with Hulk's marketing agent in order to create a game named Hulkamania Wrestling. The new title will bring Hulk Hogan's personality to mobile devices and will allow players to experience countless wrestling "moves" as well as the power of mighty Hulk.

Hulkamania Wrestling comes with a 3D isometric view for a complete ring experience, and features realistic fights as well as funny dialog. Gamers will be able to play not only with Hulk, but also with seven other wrestling stars, each coming with their own look and fighting style. During the game, you will use "classic" moves like Doublehand Choke Lift, Strong Clothesline, Pedigree, Spinbuster and so on. Although you'll probably be caught up in the game and want to punch and crush everything, be careful with your handset, since it's only a fragile device after all.

Hulk Hogan said about the future game featuring himself: "Hulkamania is alive and well and I'm excited to give my fans a mobile game that is true to my experiences in wrestling. I'm confident that Gameloft will inject their signature style to produce the ultimate wrestling game for all my fans to enjoy on the go."

Gonzague de Vallois, senior vice president of Publishing, Gameloft, declared: "We are excited to be expanding the Gameloft family of licenses into the wrestling genre and are delighted to do so with a man as renowned as the legendary Hulk Hogan. Wrestling fans are fanatical about having access to their favorite sport and our new Hulkamania Wrestling will let them enjoy it everywhere."

For the moment, there are no screenshots with Hulkamania Wrestling available, but these will most probably appear before the launching of the game, planned for August 2008. Until then, stay strong and don't forget: there's a little Hulk Hogan in all of us.
