Master devastating combos, battle outlandish celebrity bosses and take on all comers with an array of weapons, including katanas, shuriken and baseball bats. Channel Shaq’s alter egos, Big Daddy O and Big Diesel, in epic battles in the successor to the worst game ever on a mission to restore Shaq’s legacy.

“We know diehard fans have been waiting eagerly to experience the hard-hitting action of this new take on Shaq Fu, and we’re excited to team up with Wired Productions to get the game physically into the hands of players this spring,” said Saber CEO Matt Karch.

Leo Zullo, Managing Director at Wired Productions, commented, “Shaq Fu has an incredible legacy in the history of video games, and we’re delighted to be part of the team shooting to earn Shaq his place in the future of video games.”

Sometimes while we think "could we", we forget to ask "should we".

Add this to the list of things nobody effing wanted, right there with the bubsy games, and the guys that made action 52 trying to host a kickstarter for nothing more than a bugfixed cheetahmen game.

Aw man, free copy! NBA Playgrounds is great (other than the crappy level grind and scummy $10 unlock all feature), but this game actually looks pretty good for a remake.
