SKILL CHALLENGES

EA SPORTS UFC 2 offers 12 new mini-games that help players learn and perfect their stand-up, clinch, and ground game.


GAMEPLAY

KNOCKOUT PHYSICS SYSTEM

With the new physics-driven hit reaction system, every knockout will feel different from the last. Fighters will fall in response to their momentum and the blow they receive, making each knockout feel responsive and rewarding.

NEXT-LEVEL SUBMISSIONS

Dominate the mat like Ronda Rousey. From chaining your moves, quick transitions, and the ability to do standing submissions, there are more ways to defeat your opponent.

DYNAMIC GRAPPLING

Great names like Fabricio Werdum, Johny Hendricks and Demian Maia have always been incredible on the ground. In EA SPORTS UFC 2, we’re bringing the ground game to life with more variety and responsiveness, featuring freedom and control not seen in any previous MMA game.

ULTIMATE DEFENSE

When you watch a fighter like Jose Aldo, who is able to frustrate an opponent by simply making himself unhittable, it can sway the outcome of a fight. In EA SPORTS UFC 2, we’ve put more control in how you’re able to defend yourself. Greater head movement lets you slip and dodge incoming strikes while our improved blocking and parry system will make your opponent think twice before attempting a strike.

GRAPPLE ASSIST

Using visual aids to help players, we’re making it easier to master the art of grappling. Happening in real-time, the grappling assist display shows you how to seamlessly move from taking down your opponent to submitting them, all while teaching you the nuanced elements of the sport.

ULTIMATE FIGHTER LIKENESS & ANIMATIONS

A new facial model rig, hair physics, and improved strike deformation bring a whole new level of detail to the game and work to make every impact feel and look realistic.

EA SPORTS UFC 2 has over a thousand fighting and signature animations to bring greater personality to each fighter. You’ll automatically recognize iconic moves from some of the best fighters, like Conor McGregor’s high hook kick.

LARGEST ROSTER EVER

Building upon the strong roster of fighters in EA SPORTS UFC, there will be even more talent to choose from. From MMA legends to the current crop of UFC Athletes, and even some surprises, fans will have even more choice.

Having even more fighters to choose from will be a key element for a number of modes, such as the all-new UFC Ultimate Team.
