AFL General Manager Commercial Kylie Rogers has this to say about AFL Evolution 2’s announcement:
AFL Evolution 2 will build upon the success of its predecessor, giving footy fans an enhanced AFL video game experience when it’s released in the first half of 2019. Digital platforms give our fans another way to deepen their engagement with the game alongside their involvement in playing, watching or officiating.
Tru Blu Entertainment and Wicked Witch Software have worked tirelessly over the past three and a half years to put in place a great foundation for future video game releases.
