IGN Xbox has a huge write-up of details revealed to them at Midway's Gamer's Day in Las Vegas, held a couple of weeks ago.
In addition to being able to destroy arenas, certain environments will change on their own, posing new threats and challenges. One such arena is beach that flips continuously throughout the fight. At first it's a bright, cheery day conjuring up images of bikinis and pineapple drinks, and then it flips into a dark, stormy and dangerous map. When it changes to the dark side, different elements of the arena become danger zones, forcing players to adapt quickly. Another fight we saw took place atop a large, crumbling spire of rock. As the battle raged on, rings around the outside of the fighting surface sloughed off, leaving less and less real estate to battle on.
Other highlights include suicide moves to rob the victor of this fatality, along with background fatalities being active at all times during the match. Also, more screenshots are strewn throughout the story. Check it out. Thanks Shacknews.
