With a trailer that makes it look like a cross between Team Fortress 2 and Monday Night Football, here is Uber Entertainment’s Monday Night Combat, coming to Xbox Live Arcade. From the studio with the parkour-loving game developer.
Official description:
Monday Night Combat is a class-based, third-person shooter… and the most popular lethal sport of the future! It blends intense combat, finishing moves, and gameshow-like challenges and rewards to produce an action experience unlike any other. Why fight for “honor” or “duty” when you can fight for the real American dream: cash, fame and endorsements?!
The game features assault, tank, sniper, support, gunner and assassin classes waging combat as sport in arenas that support competitive and co-op play. The game is set for release this year.

Seriously i hope this sells well on XBLA so the developers think of a PC version.
