EA Sports has launched the official reveal trailer for UFC 4. This installment will be featuring Israel Adesanya and Jorge Masvidal on its global cover. As rumored, the game does contain Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua as bonus playable characters.

Although Joshua and Fury are not really MMA fighters but boxers, the UFC series of games have been featuring boxers for quite a while. Even Mike Tyson was a part of the game for quite some time as well. After all, UFC’s President, Dana White, started his combat sports career with boxing.

It was previously known that Joshua and Fury will not be available as playable characters in the game from the very start. But now, the ones who have pre-ordered UFC 4 will get the bonus fighters with the game. UFC fans have been waiting for this game ever since players saw it on the PlayStation servers even before it was announced.

Create a champion and leave a legacy behind in the UFC 4

As gaming journalist Brian Mazique had pointed out previously, the structure of the carer mode in the game is not very different from the ones in the previous installments. However, in this installment, the focus is more on the creative fighter. The game focuses more on how a fighter goes on to make it big, from scratch. The players create a fighter and then enter a career mode. There are options to get your fighter to fight in ranked competitive online championships too.

The more your fighter progresses through the career mode, the more you get to unlock various levels. Players will also be able to earn in-game currencies to upgrade their fighter even further. This game focuses on creating your own fighter and how far you can push him/her to go out and be a legend.

Earlier last month, Tyson Fury had announced that he will be facing Anthony Joshua in the heavyweight division. The fight is scheduled for 2021. Including these two fighters in the game served as a good promotional and marketing strategy for both of them. On the other hand, players who also happen to be boxing fans can simulate the fight on the game before the real one next year.

So, you folks ready to pack a punch?
