Midway Games today announced that four-time Super Bowl champion linebacker Bill Romanowski will join Lawrence Taylor as a co-cover athlete for the upcoming Blitz: The League release on the Xbox 360 as well as Blitz: The League Overtime on PSP. Romanowski's involvement will not end with a mere photo shoot, as the athlete will also be featured as the voice of one of the scourges of the league, Bruno Batagglia. Batagglia is a star member of The League's fictional Baltimore Bearcats and will play a crucial role in the storyline of the game.
"With over one million games sold to-date, Blitz: The League has been an enormous success for Midway," said Steve Allison of Midway. "We are excited to have Bill Romanowski, arguably one of the most feared and talented defensive football players of his time, working in conjunction with Midway to bring fans the first Blitz title on next generation systems."
Expect to see Blitz: The League and Blitz: The League Overtime stiff-arm their way onto the Xbox 360 and PSP in October and November respectively.
