Fight Night Round 4 features new gameplay and Mike Tyson
EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 4 is in development at EA Canada in Vancouver and will be available next year for PlayStation 3 & Xbox 360.
“The EA SPORTS Fight Night franchise has always been synonymous with quality and innovation that raised the bar for the sports videogame genre”, said Kevin Wilkinson, Executive Producer, EA SPORTS. “EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 3 was a platform defining game as the industry transitioned to next generation consoles. EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 4 will change how boxing games are played and measured in the future.”
Featuring a re-written gameplay engine, EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 4 will add a variety of fighting styles and boxer differentiation to authentically emulate the greatest fighters of all time. Pressure your opponent with the brawling inside style of young Mike Tyson, bobbing and weaving to set up powerful hooks and uppercuts. Capitalize on Muhammad Ali’s reach, hand speed and fleetness of foot to bewilder your opponent with lightning fast jabs and straights from the outside. For the first time in history, EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 4 gives you the opportunity to pit these legendary heavyweights against one another and name a true champ.
No fight will be the same with an all-new physics-based animation system that recreates the full spectrum of true-to-life punch impacts, giving boxers a devastating arsenal of punches, blocks and ring movement. The new physics system allows for missed punches, glancing punches, knockout blows and for the first time ever, rough and tumble inside fighting. Fatigue, adrenaline, footwork and timing all come into play as you hammer away at your opponents.

Fight Night 4 sounds very promising, i just hope they dont fix anything that is not broke. I do think they should make the knockdowns more realistic like the knockdowns in real boxing. The knockdowns on all of Fight Night is too slow and very limited. I think they should improve the knockdowns based on how the fighter gets hit.
I couldn’t agree with you more. Let’s hope EA doesn’t break the gameplay elements that worked so well in Fight Night Round 3 and instead concentrates their focus on improving key areas, such as the career mode, online play, and improving the realism of knockdowns like you suggested. If they can pull this off I’ll definitely be adding Fight Night Round 4 to my collection when it’s released.
they should change the knockdowns because in round 3 the boxers look like their dead when they go down,And they need to add felix trinidad,floyd mayweather jr and legends like thomas hearns,and george foreman
Fight night is crap and a waste of time you should stop playing little babey games and take on the real chalenge shitheads!!!
