EA Sports MMA (also known as EA Sports Mixed Martial Arts) is an upcoming video game which will be published by EA Sports and developed by EA Tiburon in 2010 and will be released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[2]

Game Details

On June 1, 2009, Electronic Arts, announced that an all-new fighting title is in development under the EA Sports brand. EA Sports MMA will be available in 2010 on the Xbox 360 does not reveal any facts about the gameplay or its release date, just one link to sign up for the EA Sports newsletter and another that directs people to EA Sport's MMA forum.[3]

It was announced that the first trailer would be shown on CBS, during Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Rogers on November 7, 2009. The trailer featured Emelianeko and Rogers performing a variety of attacks and defenses against each other. The trailer ended with both of the men about to punch each other in the face. It was announced that EA MMA would feature Strikeforce as its flagship promotion.[4]

In an article posted on December 15, mentioned the following details:

  • Deals with other MMA promotions, in addition to the announced Strikeforce deal, are "highly likely, including at least one of the big Japanese groups." FSM says one unannounced top fighter "regularly competes in Sengoku Raiden Championship, aka World Victory Road."
  • Venues including both rings and cages. FSM says EA's on the fence about whether restarts will be included for ring fights. (It "might make for jarring gameplay," the article says.)
  • Pride-style rules in addition to standard Unified Rules.
  • The ability to fight left- or right-handed, execute foot stomps and fight on the cage, with deep clinchwork and countering.
  • As for gameplay, the right analog will be the striking control, with the left trigger as the kick modifier.
  • Mauro Ranallo and Frank Shamrock will be providing commentary.[5]

Roster

Legend:

  • LH Fighter can fight at Light Heavyweight
  • MW Fighter can fight at Middleweight
  • WW Fighter can fight at Welterweight
  • LW Fighter can fight at Lightweight
  • VID Fighter has been visually identified in press articles, but has yet to be confirmed by EA.
  • UC Fighter has announced their involvement with the game in past interviews, but has yet to be confirmed by EA.

Organizations

UFC Controversy

UFC president Dana White has declared himself "at war" with EA over the development of the game and has threatened to blacklist any fighter who signs on to the project from fighting in the UFC. There are two exceptions to that thus far as Vladimir Matyushenko, a contracted UFC fighter, signed on to be a part of the game before rejoining the Ultimate Fighting Championship. The other is Randy Couture who was under contract with UFC before agreeing to be a part of EA Sports MMA, but is able to take part in the game due to never signing over his likeness to the Ultimate Fighting Championship for use in video games. This is why Couture will not be in any upcoming UFC Undisputed releases.
