Midway Games has announced that Blitz: The League II has shipped to stores for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.

Blitz: The League II builds on the fast-paced, over-the-top football action that is a trademark of the Blitz franchise with all-new tackles, gruesome injuries and touchdown celebrations that allow more player control than ever before. The hallmark Blitz brutality can be found throughout Blitz: The League II, including the return of the franchise's trademark late hits.

Cover athlete Lawrence Taylor returns as Quentin Sands, the baddest man in the league and leader of the New York Nightmare. Joining Taylor are comedians Frank Caliendo and Jay Mohr. Caliendo provides the voices for our familiar-sounding color commentator and the prison warden, while Mohr naturally lends his talents as the game's agent. Peter Egan, of ESPN's Playmakers fame, returns to pen the most entertaining Blitz storyline yet.
