  • Fight Picks: Now, players can make predictions for the main card of every PPV. Climb the community leaderboard with accurate picks and earn the opportunity to attain additional customizable assets.
  • Fight Week Contracts: Players will be presented with a daily fight offer where they compete against AI opponents inspired by the current UFC calendar.

  • Fight Now: A restructuring of the Fight Now experience offers a suite of authentic MMA/UFC match types to the fan-favorite mode, including Main Card, Main Event, Championship, Backyard, and Kumite.

"Experience realistic blow-by-blow damage with hyper-accurate progression as fighter attributes realistically deteriorate over the course of a fight. Feel the power of each impact with more than 64,000 possible facial damage combinations. New fluid physics and particle systems elevate blood and sweat inside the world-famous Octagon for a near 1:1 representation of a Pay-Per-View main event, while the implementation of the all-new face animation tool enhances fighter likenesses. Photorealistic fighter likenesses are accentuated with advanced body sculpting and strand-based hair during marquee UFC 5 moments."

  • Frostbite Engine – Powering EA Sports UFC for the first time in franchise history, Frostbite brings unrivaled graphics upgrades for console games. From dynamic lighting and overhauled character fidelity to realistic strand hair and cloth animations, it brings the action in the Octagon to life.
  • Visual Effects – Improved fidelity means when fighters absorb strikes, the results show on their face and body in an authentic, wince-inducing fashion. Plus, all new fluid physics and particle systems make blood and sweat drip and spray as it does during the heat of the action.
  • New In-Game Cinematics – Using updated cameras, animations, and Frostbite, the cinematic moments pre-fight, between rounds, and post-fight feel fresh, bringing the drama of stepping into the Octagon to a new level.
  • Advanced Fighter Likeness – Thanks to Frostbite and a significant upgrade to lighting and rendering features – including dual-lobe skin and eye shading, strand-based hair, updated fighter body types, and industry-leading facial animation technology – the fighters players know and love have never looked more authentic.
  • Cinematic K.O. Replay – Showcasing UFC's massive presentation updates in a truly compelling way, Cinematic K.O. Replays let players admire their handiwork in stunning slo-mo highlights that turn the finish of a fight into a work of art.
