  • If you're into sports and gaming, you're pretty much covered - unless you're a boxing fan.
    Since EA discontinued Fight Night in 2011, boxing fans have had little to satisfy their appetite in the virtual world, but a game studio from Sheffield hopes to change that.
    Undisputed's developers have told BBC Newsbeat why they felt it was time for boxing to make a return to the video game ring.

    People need to support this game no matter what, even if it’s not so great.
    They now have a game to build on. You’ve gotta remember EA had Fight Night for years and years so it’s easy to tweak things here and there..
    Steel City have created this game from scratch, this is their first attempt at a boxing game. Support the game, give it constructive criticism and over time we will get an incredible boxing game again.

    It's so good to see a group of dedicated & passionate people who are all focused on making this one game. We used to see this sorta thing in the early 2000's. I'm so happy to see new combat sports games coming out. I could play these types of games and extreme games all the time and it's been so long since we've gotten anything new. I really hope this teams future flourishes and we get to see a bunch of future surprises from them. It's such a shame what Xbox & other mega companies have done to really impact the gaming industry & in a pretty negative way. Which makes me even more happy to see a company such as this full of passion and focus. In my opinion it's dev teams like this that is what makes the best games. I wish you all the best 🥊🥋🥊

I’ll give you a tip use your jab and straight right most the time to many hooks spammed for example will really make things a lot harder for you. I’ve got 260 wins and 120 losses atm so take my tip and will get off to a good winning start when it’s out on console. Use your double direction tap to avoid hook spammers circle ring wait until mid rounds for them to be half dead then smash them to pieces because that will be 90% the people you face online to start with. Obviously use your jab to try nick early rounds in the process. You want to be aiming to be going into round 12 with over 40% stamina left because below that is the point your boxer will just start waddling around with nothing left.

    I was so hyped on the game. Bought it as soon as it came out in early access and oh boy was it terrible. They have made a lot of improvements, although they are constantly behind schedule, and it's now in a pretty good state. That being said, it's no where near as good as fight night champion.
    It just feels off. You can't slip punches well using the upper body movement, and while you can punch using the right stick, it doesn't work well and you are left having to use buttons for each punch type instead.
    The AI is also garbage. Even on the hardest difficulty I find myself using the worst fighters in a division against the best, and it's still too easy. Online pvp has it's own problems. You can't choose the side you're on for some reason which is annoying. Lag will make it look like you landed a punch when you didn't. And balancing issues mean if you want to win you have to fight in a certain way that isn't realistic or fun. Step back straight punches are overpowered, and people cheese tf out of them.
    Career mode is ok, but gets old fast. Especially since you can't move up weight divisions and you become way too overpowered by fight 20 or so.
    It also doesn't run the best. I would imagine ps5 will target 30fps with high settings and 60fps in a performance mode with stuff turned way down.
    6/10.

      Having said that, champion is just about perfect really for a boxing game, and I still enjoy playing it to this day, maybe they didn't have an idea on how to improve on it, and perhaps the fees the stars demand became too high for future entries.

    If nation-funded BBC channel can receive money for ads from a gamedev company, and not disclose this anywhere in their video description, they might be receiving money from other investors, too.

    It will have to be for the time being. Hopefully this wakes EA Sports up.

    No it is not. DO YOUR RESEARCH. The Community HATES the developers of this game & it is absolutely AWFUL. They have done boxing dirty to cash in on the void of no game.

    GAME? Its a fight not a game. You don't play boxing. BBC are an embarrassment

    I disagree with the opening. FIFA is rubbish and there isn’t a truly great football game out there these days and the F1 series has been getting dragged through the mud by EA.
    Tennis only just got a new top spin game and it’s basically the same as Top Spin 4 which came out well over a decade ago.
    No great darts game either, I could go on and on.
