Electronic Arts Inc. today announced EA SPORTS™ UFC® 2 launches on March 15, 2016 in North America, and March 17, 2016 worldwide. In addition to the announcement, EA released a cinematic trailer for EA SPORTS UFC 2 featuring some of the biggest moments from recent bouts, showcasing authentic gameplay features, and highlighting new character visuals and signature animations. The trailer opens on EA SPORTS UFC 2 cover athlete and UFC® featherweight champion, Conor McGregor showing fans the all-new Knockout Physics System in his championship fight at UFC® 194. From there, fans will see Dynamic Grappling, and Next-Level Submissions while reliving some of the heart-stopping moments from recent fights, and speculating what could happen in upcoming contests. Watch the trailer here.

“Whether fans want to play upcoming cards, recreate the outcome of recent fights, or go back to fight with MMA legends, we’ll help them do that in the most authentic and exciting way ever in an MMA simulation,” said Brian Hayes, Creative Director. “Our first two pre-order fighters, Bas Rutten and Kazushi Sakuraba are perfect additions to what is already the biggest roster ever for an official UFC game. Adding them is huge, and fans are going to go nuts when we reveal who the mystery fighter is. I can’t wait.”

Fans excited to step into the Octagon® can pre-order EA SPORTS UFC 2 and get day one access to two legendary fighters: UFC Hall of Famer and three-time King of Pancrase, Bas Rutten; and Japanese MMA legend, “The Gracie Hunter” Kazushi Sakuraba, with an additional mystery fighter who will be named later.* The deluxe edition of the game also includes up to $60 of UFC Ultimate Team™ Premium Packs**.

I don't think there will be when it comes to gear. It's Reebok or bust.

Can't really blame EA for that though. They're just replicating what is in the octagon.

Nope not EA's fault at all.

My guesses for the mystery fighter are either Ken Shamrock or Tito Ortiz.

I don't think they'd put Rogan in the ring and have him calling the fight.

My guess is Dana White..lol.

Re: the trailer- I think the graphics looks the same. No upgrade there. So I really hope the fatigue system is improved.

Will wait for reviews and a price drop on this.

You also have to remember how good the graphics for UFC 1 were. At the time, it had the best graphics of any sports game, and is still up there with 2k16 for best looking.

Love the sig style added...that and Bas Rutten got me hyped.

But i dont know if its the fact that it was slowed down, or 30fps but it somehow doesn't convey the violence, effort and force of fights

Yeah, the graphics in 1 (and in most sports games by now to be honest) are well past the point of diminishing returns. The big gains can be made with the animations.

The only better option would be Steven Seagal.
He would start every fight with his stamina at -10 and he'd be dragging *** just to touch gloves (which I would fake doing, then punch him in his fat head).

He should be in though with any luck

Excited for this. Like many others I'm hoping for a great fatigue system. It'd be a bummer not to have Mcgregor's green shorts. I'm hoping reebok get more short styles. White was a horrible color to go with considering blood and all.

Is Brock returning on the game? And the other legends from the dlc?

No go on Brock and depends on others I'm guessing. Also CM Punk is in.

It was only an online problem but I hope they made a change for when someone gets stunned meter blinking or whatever and the guy who got rocked would spam the lean back to stay in the fight...it's ridiculous when someone gets rocked I want my guy to go unload like they would in real life, not miss all his strikes because the other player pulls that bs that would never happen in a real UFC fight. I liked when you rock someone and they spam takedown which is easy to defend you stuff the takedown and control them easy submission or take the back and beat them down
