A more generous Round 2 sequel, with fifteen fighters and Michael Jackson as a marquee guest. The formula stays first-game pure, with more combos and modes and the same flashy presentation. Less of a surprise than the original, but the collective vent still works in full.

Is Ready 2 Rumble Boxing - Round 2 still worth playing in 2026?
A direct sequel to Midway's arcade boxing, Round 2 enriches the roster with new champions, including Michael Jackson as a guest, polishes the Rumble moves and expands the modes. The formula does not change, but the whole gains variety and finish while keeping its offbeat humour. The ageing shows without denting the cheeky multiplayer pleasure of the versus. For a fan of the first episode or someone after no fuss arcade sport, this sequel stays the most complete and festive edition of the series on the console.
