REAL IMPACT SYSTEM

What makes an MMA fight? It’s the stakes, technique, drama, and pure reality of the moment. UFC 5 captures that in more authentic detail than ever before, from next-generation graphics upgrades that give gameplay animations new life, damage systems that marry the brutality and strategy of the fight game, gameplay updates that make the action feel even more fluid and realistic, and much more.

Authentic Damage

Cuts, bruising, and swelling accumulate in accurate locations based on the damage you inflict and take in-game, including over 64,000 possible combinations of facial damage a fighter can sustain. All damage is now rendered in more detail than ever before, affecting character attributes in a truly genuine fashion. Causing a cut on an opponent's brow that trickles into their eye will impair their vision and cause them to take more damage on that side, as they don’t see strikes coming. Bust an opponent’s nose to hinder their breathing and slow their stamina recovery. Take too many low calf kicks and your character will start to limp and their mobility declines. Authentic damage adds a whole new layer of strategic possibilities to the fight.

Doctor’s Checks & Stoppages

Authentic damage comes with authentic results. If the player sustains a significant injury — like a broken nose or swollen eye — the ref can now step in, pause the action, and get the ringside doctor to inspect the damage. If the player is unable to shift tactics and protect that injured area from getting hit, just like in the real-life Octagon, the doctor might stop the fight. This gives players more strategic opportunities for players to either thrive or survive.

NEW STRIKES & HIT REACTIONS

It’s a striking evolution. UFC 5 features all-new animations for ground and pound elbows, spinning attacks, and several other punches, kicks, knees, and elbows. Plus, new striking animations emulate heavy hitters, professional kickboxers, and more, giving you all new ways to stand and bang. In addition, new hit reaction animations and physics make sure you feel the impact of a clean connection.

SEAMLESS SUBMISSIONS

The new Seamless Submissions functions as a revamped extension of the existing grappling systems with faster animations and the removal of mini-games. Beginners can use Grapple Assist for help on the canvas, while veterans will have new depths to uncover and enjoy. The new submissions offer a smoother, more authentic ground game that is sure to be a grappler’s delight.
