WHA Entertainment have announced a new version of their PSN brawler based on the Kick-Ass movie.  Kick-Ass New and Improved is an enhanced version of the two player co-op game we reviewed earlier this year.  

Kick-Ass, the movie based on the graphic novel of the same name, comes out today on DVD and Blu-ray.  To celebrate the occasion, WHA Entertainment has permanently lowered the price of the Kick-Ass game on its exclusive home of the PlayStation Network.  The game is a two player co-op brawler and uses licensed material from the movies quite extensively.

When it comes to licensed games from popular film or other medium, you can consider most of us gamer types to be a bit skeptical. We recently took a look at the PSN co-op title Kick-Ass (of movie and comic book fame) to decide for ourselves which category this beat 'em up brawler fits in.

Kick-Ass hits theaters today, a cheesy movie about a bunch of kids who pretend to be superheroes.  The game however, won't be out for a few more weeks when it hits the PlayStation Network and iPhone.  We just got a fresh batch of screens and a trailer showing off the game - which I can't help but be reminded of the Watchmen game.  Uh oh.
