Publisher Marvelous boasted in its Tokyo Game Show press materials obtained by Siliconera that the game is estimated for January 2010 in North America and February or March for Europe. Oddly, no Japanese release date was mentioned.

Announced during the Tokyo Game Show, the sequel to the 2007 off-kilter Wii brawler is to be an expanded title focused on revenge, according to designer Goichi Suda.

Despite considering an Xbox 360 version, the game will remain a Wii exclusive on account of the Wii's remote control.
