GLEN COVE, N.Y., May 10, 2000 - Acclaim Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ:AKLM), a leading worldwide interactive entertainment company announced today that it will release ECW Anarchy Rulz for the PlayStation® game console in August and Sega Dreamcast(tm) in October of 2000.

ECW Anarchy Rulz will feature all-new control mechanics for easy pick-up-and-play action. The game will have over 60 of the most hardcore wrestlers, including the ECW debut of "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes, The Sandman, and the Executive Producer of ECW Paul Heyman, joining the rest of ECW's outrageous stars. New matches include Street Fight, Table Match and the explosive Brimstone Match. And for the first time, ECW Anarchy Rulz' Stable Mode allows players to handpick their own allies and adversaries to battle through career mode.
The audio in ECW Anarchy Rulz leads the wrestling genre. Licensed music cuts include "Debonaire" by Dope and "Holy Man" by One Minute Silence. All wrestlers feature their own recorded voice packages for extreme realism. Plus, double trouble in the broadcast booth featuring the "voice of ECW" Joey Styles and the "Quintessential Stud Muffin" Joel Gertner.
Acclaim's Create your own Pay-Per-View, Create-A-Wrestler and Career Modes have been enhanced for even greater customization including belt defenses, where players can play one another in Title matches.
