Beyer discussed the game, what it means for Latin American game development, and the current state of the Latin American game development industry."
HiTOKEN interviews Mexican developer: Abraham Morales from Slang Studio. He also worked on Vorpal, an Xbox Live Indie Game by TeamRedWolf.

The BitBag: "At E3 earlier this year, the Lucha Libre booth was excellent, with a ring set up for matches featuring AAA stars, actual announcers, and so on. Konami did a great job bringing awareness to a subset of professional wrestling. I was excited to learn a new developer would be able to take a try at making a wrestling game, plus being the first game (non-XBLA/PSN) from Mexican developer is a great story. With a fresh face and a big company behind it, read on to see how Lucha Libre turned out."
PSi: "I have been a wrestling fan for years. To me, part of the fun of following wrestling is more about the backstage antics or the creative input it takes to have a wrestling gimmick "put over." Having an ordinary guy become a megastar doesn't happen overnight (despite what WWE would have you believe.) It takes a lot of work and passion to create personas and characters that really resonate with the crowd. That's why I love Mexican wrestlers, or Luchadors."
This interview has made me far more interested in Lucha Libre AAA than I was before. Damn internet, making me want more games!
