EA Sports will be announcing the highly anticipated game, EA Sports UFC 5, in September 2023 according to a recent Twitter teaser. While no specific platforms were confirmed, it is highly likely that the game will be available on the PlayStation 5. However, a release on the PlayStation 4 cannot be completely ruled out at this point.
There were rumors circulating in 2021 that development on a new Fight Night game had been put on hold in order to focus on the UFC franchise. Initially, the MMA title was expected to launch in late 2022. However, it seems that the game has encountered some unforeseen delays and is only now being officially announced in 2023.
Despite the delays, fans can expect EA Sports UFC 5 to be visually stunning, as its predecessors in the series have consistently pushed presentation boundaries. The previous installment, EA Sports UFC 4, was well-received, particularly for its stand-and-bang aspect. However, the developer may still need to work on perfecting the ground game, which can be challenging to translate into engaging gameplay.
Fans can anticipate further refinements and improvements to be revealed when EA Sports UFC 5 is officially unveiled in September. The game is set to continue the franchise’s tradition of delivering an immersive and exhilarating experience in the world of mixed martial arts.
