Reigning Man of Steel Mikey Lewis has the joint-highest overall score on rugby league ’s newest game, Rugby League 26. The latest major instalment in the sport’s gaming franchise was released on Thursday, with the Hull KR star rated 90 alongside Warrington and England skipper George Williams.
UK supporters can now play as their favourite Super League, Championship and League 1 players on Rugby League 26 after its release – the first game in eight years – with ratings based on their statistics.
Produced by Big Ant Studios, the Robins’ ratings range from the highest of 90, to 78. Surprisingly, influential forward Dean Hadley has been given the latter, alongside currently injured centre Oliver Gildart. Hadley, 32, has been a pillar of consistency since Willie Peters’ arrival at Sewell Group Craven Park, and has been a standout again in Super League so far this season.
Australian half-back Tyrone May boasts Rovers’ second-highest score of 86, with centre Peta Hiku and hooker Jez Litten in joint-third with 85.
Starting front-rowers Sauaso Sue and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves hold scores of 79, alongside Papua New Guinea international Rhyse Martin.
Hull KR captain Elliot Minchella is in joint-fourth with a rating of 84, alongside one-time England international Tom Davies.
Overall in Rugby League 26, Warrington’s Matt Dufty, and Wigan pair Jai Field and Bevan French boast the second-highest scores of 89, closely followed by Matty Ashton, Herman Ese’ese, Junior Nsemba and Luke Thompson with 88.
