AKI was responsible for the two WCW licensed games for the Nintendo 64, WCW/nWo World Tour and the critically acclaimed WCW/nWo Revenge, as well as the acclaimed WWF Wrestlemania 2000 and No Mercy. The project seemed promising enough, with Japanese developer, AKI, manning the construction of the game’s mechanics. Publisher, Electronic Arts, initially meant for the Def Jam: Vendetta to be a follow-up to its last 2 wrestling projects, WCW: Mayhem and Backstage Assault. The background of this often forgotten gem stems from its predecessor, Vendetta, a game that, for all intents and purposes, shouldn’t have happened. Video games are weird, and none come any weirder than the hip-hop-influenced fighter, Def Jam: Fight for NY.
