Shaquille O’Neil has announced on Twitter that he’ll be attending The Game Awards tomorrow night, and that he will “have a little Shaq Fu surprise.” This implies that Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn, a game O’Neil revealed in May of 2014, will be premiered sometime during the event.
I'm heading to @thegameawards on Thursday in LA, have a little Shaq Fu surprise for you videogame fan.

Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn has been touted as a brawling game that emphasizes a combat system deep enough for online competitive play. Think something along the lines of Super Smash Bros., but with a more Shaq aesthetic. O’Neil himself will be a playable character, in addition to the boss characters he encounters throughout the game. A release date for the game has not been announced. We may get that information tomorrow night, however, along with a new trailer.
The Game Awards have touted that there will be ten big reveals or premieres during the show, in addition to ten major awards given. We already know that there will be reveals for Mortal Combat X characters, along with teases for Far Cry Primal and Quantum Break. The awards have known other exciting reveals in the past, such as No Man’s Sky in 2013 or the explosive reveal of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim in 2010.
The Game Awards start tomorrow night, December 3, at 9 p.m. EST.
