Sony has today announced that a sequel to Sports Champions is in the works and is due for release this Autumn.

It is currently under development at Sony San Diego Studio and Zindagi Games. It promises to keep the hugely successful Move support from the first which “was a multi-million unit-seller.”

Speaking to the PS Blog Sony Worldwide Studios producer Jeremy Ray said: “Sports Champions 2 revives favorite features, including the surprisingly deep and challenging single-player Cup Play and the customizable Free Play mode, plus fun arcade Challenge rounds for each event. We’ve made a ton of improvements, too: Three-point PS Move calibration is no longer required (and it won’t sacrifice gameplay; player avatars can be created and customized per event; a new profile system enables everyone in the house to play together with their own avatars and settings; and the photo booth is more customizable and easier to use.”

“There’s also an all-new Party Play mode that I can’t wait to show off because it’s the perfect way to play with your friends and family on game night. You can play matches from any combination of events, including Challenge Rounds, and add up your score to see who reigns as the party champion. You can create your own match playlist, see photos and voices from each player during the game, and draw something humiliating (or nice!) on the hapless loser.”

Sounds very interesting, a trailer was also released which you can checkout below.
