Over the past few years, professional wrestling fans have mostly been limited to WWE/TNA games, but not for much longer. There’s a new player in town and they’re bringing a whole new attitude with them. Slang is the first Mexican-based publisher to bring a video game to the mass market. Its initial entry? Lucha Libre AAA 2010: Heroes del Ring, a wrestling game featuring stars from the Mexican-based AAA (Asistencia Asesoría y Administración) wrestling league.

While the game was created by Slang, development has been delegated to Immersion Games for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions and Sabarasa Studios for the Wii, DS, and PSP.  We had the opportunity to ask some questions of Mateo Rojas from Immersion Games about Slang’s freshman effort, and his answers didn’t disappoint.

I don’t have anything against the WWE Smackdown games, but competition always breeds a better product. Another wrestling game coming to the market with a fresh approach will benefit the consumers as well as developers of both games. On top of all that, lucha libre wrestling takes what’s fun about American professional wrestling and triples it: the pagentry, the high-flying moves, and the outrageous characters all seem to be squeezed in to Slang’s first effort (you can check out the game’s trailer below).

Prepare to enter the squared circle on October 12, 2010, when Lucha Libre AAA 2010: Heroes del Ring releases for Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii, PSP, and Nintendo DS.
