How many gamers here remember the game 'Punch-Out!!' for the [NES](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retroarch-ios) system? The fun returns (to [iPhones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/assassins-creed-mirage-game) at least) with the 'Mike Tyson's Punch-Out.'

RockLive is the company behind 'Mike Tyson's Punch-Out' and it updates the old classic with [better graphics and additional features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flappy-bird-1). Much like its predecessor, the controller beats opponents from a first-person perspective with a directional touchpad on the side of the screen. The ultimate goal is to beat every character until you face Tyson himself. Some of the new features include special power punches, in-game currency to buy stronger punches and much more.
