Gladiator Begins To Be Brought To The PSP By Acquire

Class of Heroes’ maker, Acquire, has recently earned the right to release a PSP version of the Gladiator series. And first on their list is to take on the Gladiator Begins, and release it to the world of Playstation Portable.

In Gladiator Begins, you will have to play the role of a gladiator fighting just so he can win his freedom. You will also have to create your character (just like with any role-playing games) dressed in nothing but a loincloth. Then, you will have to fight it out in the arena with other gladiators while the crowd is jeering you on. If you are still finding it hard to understand the mechanics of the game, watch Russel Crowe’s Gladiator, and you will definitely see the similarities between the movie and the game.
Check out the screenshots for more exciting details on this new game. The Gladiator Begins will be released in Japan on October 29. No word yet on an American release.
