December 13, 2005 – Following up on 2004’s bling-heavy NBA Ballers, Midway today revealed NBA Ballers: Phenom, currently in development for PlayStation 2 and Xbox. The company is also taking the hoops franchise to the PSP with NBA Ballers: Rebound — a portable version of the original Ballers title.
With NBA Ballers: Phenom, Midway is introducing “an entirely new open world” and richer player customization. Set in Los Angeles and offering a detailed story mode, Phenom will have you working both on and off the court to establish your reputation and hoops skills — with the goal of making it into the NBA. The new Ballers offers 2-on-2 action, in addition to the 1-on-1 matches of the original. Style’s still important, of course: you’ll eventually have a chance to start your own clothing line, record label, and movie deal.
Midway expects to ship NBA Ballers: Phenom this spring. No date has been set yet for NBA Ballers: Rebound on the PSP.
