EA revolutionized boxing games with Fight Night. Not wanting to let a good thing rest for too long, EA is stepping back into the ring, announcing Fight Night Round 4 for PS3 and Xbox 360. Though Round 4 won't be hitting store shelves until 2009, EA is starting the hype train early.

"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."

Developed by EA Canada, Fight Night Round 4 promises that "no fight will be the same." Along with adding more fighting styles, Round 4 features a new physics-based animation system that allows for more realistic-looking missed punches, glancing blows and jaw-rocking knockouts. The game engine is being completely re-written to allow for greater boxer diversity and "rough and tumble" inside fighting.

The full list of boxers has not been released, but a few names have been revealed. Muhammad Ali is back again and will be able to enter the ring with Sugar Ray Leonard, Lennox Lewis and "Iron" Mike Tyson, among others. You read that right -- Mike "That is a Tattoo on My Face" Tyson is making his return to videogames. Hallelujah.

Re: Fight Night Round 4 announced

I hope they put more focus on defense because the games just seem to focus on attack attack attack

Still - with this being the only new boxing game coming to the ps3 with don kings seemingly being a 360 exclusive... ill keep an eye on it - the first was stunning on the 360 and was something i was proud to show off to my mates
 
Fight Night series was ruined with gimmicky gameplay elements that seriously detracted from the enjoyment of the game along with severely shallow and flawed career mode, not to mention a create a boxer system that was done with sliders instead of numbers so it was next to impossible to simply share "recipes" for creating numerous real boxers.
 
You don't think the abysmal parry system spoiled it? Parry a punch and the opponent freezes for 5 seconds letting you land any number of shots, that's awful game design.
 
Cant say it got in the way to much but it seems they are working on different styles and all which is good.

Decent lineup IMO, although Haye should be in heavyweight not light heavyweight, I guess he'll actually appear in both being as he was a cruiserweight for a long time and now moved up to Heavyweight.

Have to ask where both Klitschkos's? Where's Povetkin? Where's Valuev? Seems a very lightweight Heavyweight division.....
 
Has anyone ever complimented you on your sense of humour? Im not gonna be the first put it that way :))
