and authentic stand-up gameplay, while overhauled takedown and ground mechanics

With more control in striking, Real Player Motion Technology elevating

ground and pound overhaul, players will feel every phase of the fight in EA
SPORTS UFC 4.
Features:
- Fluid Clinch Control: UFC 4 introduces Real Player Motion Technology (RPM
Tech) into the art of the ‘clinch’, creating a fluid experience driven by
positioning and physical context. Utilizing this technology, the clinch is
integrated as part of the striking system allowing for more fluid and frequent
clinch and break moments.
- akedown Overhaul: UFC 4 introduces RPM Tech into takedown gameplay as well.
With a multitude of new takedown animations, players will feel a larger spectrum
of outcomes, driven by user control and fighter attributes. From power carries
to clean sprawls to all new driving takedowns where players actively push or
defend through the takedown attempt, fights are won or lost in these impactful
wrestling moments.
- Devastating Ground and Pound: Finding ways to inflict significant damage
from the ground has become the trademark of some of the UFC’s best. With the
ground and pound overhaul, UFC 4 puts you in more control of postured-up
scenarios, giving the striker more tools to aim and pick their spots and the
defender access to more tools, like head movement and well-timed counter
transitions.
- New Submissions System: The overhauled system introduces an all-new
experience for the submission phase. Depending on your position, one of two new
mini-games will trigger, built to offer a simplified user experience. In
addition, players now have the ability to strike from the submission phase and
more ways to transition submissions to accelerate the finish, or deploy
high-impact slams to escape them.
- Grapple Assist: The introduction of a more intuitive control scheme allows
for greater control and understanding in the ground game. Basic left-stick
button inputs allow players to instantly trigger an effort to ‘get-up’,
‘submit’, or advance to a more advantageous ‘ground and pound’
position.
- Dynamic Striking Inputs: An overhaul to the control scheme allows for more
controlled striking, while offering better access to a variety of combinations.
Using the new mechanic, players can choose between tapping the button to strike
with speed, or holding it to execute slower, more damaging, blows.
- High Impact Moments: Every fighter enters the Octagon to finish the fight.
In UFC 4, players will see, hear, and feel the disorienting impact of a fight
changing shot, or see face-rippling replays of devastating knockout blows that
put their opponent on the canvas.
- New Commentary Team: Former UFC Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight Champion,
Daniel “DC” Cormier, jumps into the commentary booth alongside UFC broadcast
staple, Jon Anik, providing a fresh, new commentary experience that is
entertaining, energetic and informative.
New Fighting Environments
A fighter is forged by their surroundings; whether they’re built in the
streets or born out of old martial arts discipline, these new environments make
the fighter… and the fight.
- The Backyard: Some of the most brutal strikers in history began with a raw
past that paved the way for their professional future. In the backyard
environment, you better finish the fight because out here the
judge’s scorecard is the last thing anyone wants to see.
- The Kumite: An environment that pays homage to the old lore of MMA. People
come to this underground temple for one reason only, to impose the dominance of
their fighting discipline on any challengers.
- UFC Apex: The authentic site of Dana White’s Contender Series in Las
Vegas.This unique venue captures the distinct environment, where fighters go
from “contenders” to UFC professional athletes.
- Action Avenue: An outdoor amateur MMA venue, built to showcase where humble
beginnings take their first steps towards future MMA glory.
