WWE's Roman Reigns and Sasha Banks Join Ultimate Rivals: The Court

Bit Fry's Ultimate Rivals: The Court features epic arcade-style Basketball, so it only makes sense to bring in some of the larger-than-life superstars from WWE to join in on the fun, and that's exactly what's happened. Bit Fry announced a new licensing agreement that will have WWE Superstars and Legends added to the roster of Ultimate Rivals: The Court, and it kicks off with two Champions. The first two Superstars added to the game are SmackDown Women's Champion Sasha Banks and Universal Champion Roman Reigns, and each star will be throwing down against some of the biggest sports stars ever in Ultimate Rivals exciting brand of three on three basketball.

Even better is the fact that the agreement also includes six additional Superstars, who will be announced in the coming months. As for who those could be, your guess is as good as ours, but we definitely have several we hope to see make it into the game. You can get a look at both Reigns and Banks in the artwork below.
