There’s aren’t many (in fact, there are hardly any) boxing games on the market, especially those that utilise the power of current-gen consoles. But come this October all that will change as we get the opportunity to rule the ring in UNDISPUTED.Â
Get ready to rule the ring
Set to release on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 alongside a full drop onto PC, UNDISPUTED is one of the first major boxing games of recent years. In fact, you could go back a decade or so since we last saw one of those and so the creation of Steel City Interactive and Deep Silver should be something to keep an eye on. Aside from UNDISPUTED, your only real boxing options on Xbox are that of Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions and World Championship Boxing Manager 2.
Promising to be the most authentic boxing game to date, UNDISPUTED will come to market with more than 70 licensed boxers in tow. And yep, they’ll include the likes of Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk, Canelo Alvarez, Katie Taylor and Roy Jones Jr. Would it be a boxing game without those names?
From there, UNDISPUTED will further enhance the roster with both paid and free DLC, adding in new fighters, various pieces of apparel and new venues for the fight to take hold. When you consider that it is set to launch with 14 fight venues in place, plus more than 60 different punches, defensive moves and footwork mechanics, and it gets better still.Â
Key features of UNDISPUTED
- Character Creator – male or female – customize your fighter from hairstyle to body weight (which determines your weight class), clothing and fighting styles.
- An in-depth Career Mode enables players to build their team, negotiate contracts, train and carve their own path to becoming Undisputed
- Over 60 different punches, defensive tools and revolutionary footwork mechanics
- 14 atmospheric fight venues – from local gyms to huge arenas
- Dynamic damage and facial deformation
- Expert commentary by Todd Grisham and Johnny Nelson
- Calendar of paid and free DLC including fighters, venues and apparel
Whether it be the opportunity to take home all the belts, or to build fan base or wealth, UNDISPUTED will task you with one thing – to rule the ring.
