David Haye’s Knockout 2.0

Following its smash-hit success, ‘David Haye’s Knockout’ is back with a vengeance and it’s bigger and better than ever before! The chart-topping iPhone, iPad and iPod touch game has stormed the App Store and is available to buy now!

In ‘David Haye’s Knockout’, former WBA World Heavyweight Champion, David ‘The Hayemaker’ Haye is even more ferocious and fiercely hell-bent on obliterating his new opponents.

Taking no prisoners, the brand spanking new game is faster, ruthlessly bloody and action-packed with lots of new moves, punches and combinations.

All set to get a brutal beating, three new competitors go toe-to-toe with Haye. First in the ring is the unrecognisable and oafish charger ‘D. Boy’; followed by the sharp and exciting ‘Big Bro’; and the final challenger, ready to face the mighty Haye, is the tough and tricky ‘Little Bro’!

‘David Haye’s Knockout’ demands a cunning strategy, dangerous tactics and an evasive game-plan to outwit the rivals, claim the shiny cabinet of pristine trophies and ultimately get the championship belt back! Armed with loads of taunts, rooting fans and callous tricks up his sleeve, Haye is a lean and mean fighting machine ready to blow the head off of every enemy that gets in his way!

Show your friends and foes you’re the boss in the global leader board, grab the gory Game Center achievements and, through rich Retina graphics and High Definition, enjoy smashing your opponents’ faces in.

One-man independent games company, Grubby Hands Ltd is proudly celebrating a special anniversary this month – a year since its official launch.

Having released chart-topping ‘David Haye’s Knockout’ and much-loved ‘Boy Loves Girl’, Grubby Hands has lots to toast as Wednesday 16th May 2012 marks their 1st Appy Birthday!

Since rising from the fall of Activision’s Bizarre Creations, in February last year, Grubby Hands’ Founder and Company Director, Dr Danny Pearce, has been getting his hands dirty by creating the ferociously controversial ‘David Haye’s Knockout’ and cutely unique ‘Boy Loves Girl’.

Moving from being a Senior Programmer at Bizarre Creations where he worked on AAA multi-platform titles: ‘The Club’, ‘Blur’ and ‘James Bond 007: Blood Stone’ to independently releasing iPhone, iPad, iPod touch games has proven to be an instant success. ‘David Haye’s Knockout’ immediately topped the iPhone App Store Charts: reaching #1 in the Sports Chart, #3 in the Action Chart, #5 in the Games Chart and #8 in the App Chart and critically acclaimed ‘Boy Loves Girl’ continues to receive positive recognition: ‘full of charm and originality’ (148apps.com), ‘fiendishly addictive game’ (pocketgamer.co.uk) and ‘cheek-pinchingly charming’ (slidetoplay.com).

Kick-starting their first year with two distinctively different and refreshingly rare games, Grubby Hands are all geared up to begin their new year with continued grit, gusto and innovative games. First on the agenda is a new and explosive ‘David Haye’s Knockout’. Following its notoriously naughty reputation, the game is set to rumble the App Store with its provocative punches, brutal beats and uncompromising fun. Grubby Hands have other ambitious titles up their sleeves that are yet to be revealed and set to be released later this year.

In Ash II: Shadows Chapter 2, the world of Aghaus is once again in peril, and the heroes of old must heed the call to embark on another dangerous adventure. Players join characters Nicholas and Damien as they pursue new quests, discover ancient mysteries, and find unexpected allies.  With a brilliantly original tale and stunning HD hand-drawn graphics, Ash II: Shadows features heart pounding classic RPG gameplay with innovative touch-based controls.

Ash II: Shadows is available now for a new, low price of $2.99 for the gold edition and $.99 for the silver edition on the App Store for iPad, iPhone, and the iPod Touch at www.itunes.com/appstore
