Region locked US only.
We seemed to have missed this when it came out a few days back but it is here now.
Wrestling games are in interesting genre should one decide sociological studies on a game genre is a good use of time. This is as they seem tonot only survive but thrive despite not exhibiting the best gameplay has to offer- clunky graphics, clunkier controls, minimal gameplay when it comes down to it and a whole slew of other features that would be game breaking to most other genres. Still this is billed as a game to spin the genre in a whole new direction there have not been many reviews yet but there does seem to be a split between professional and "user" reviews with a running theme seeming to be that it harks back to the N64 era games of the genre.

Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes del Ring is an action sports game based on Mexican sport of æLucha LibreÆ style wrestling. Featuring all of the most popular æluchadoresÆ from MexicoÆs premiere wrestling federation, the game offers fans of existing wrestling franchises an evolved and unique gaming experience which is more acrobatic and fast-paced than those of existing wrestling franchises. The game also features an evolved popularity-based scoring system which allows players to unlock increasingly acrobatic and devastating moves based on the userÆs ability to gain the support of the audience through the execution of taunts aimed at humiliating oneÆs opponent. Whether playing as any of the 30 real-life AAA wrestlers or as a character they have created themselves, gamers will find the experience offered in Lucha Libre AAA: Heroes del Ring to be a true evolution of the wrestling genre.
