EA Sports UFC Content Update #2
Electronic Arts today released the second free EA Sports UFC Content Update featuring three new UFC fighters including welterweights, Matt “The Immortal” Brown and Mike “Quicksand” Pyle, as well as Heavyweight fighter, Stipe Miocic. In addition to the roster expansion, the Content Update also contains key gameplay additions and improvements including, but not limited to:
- Manual Taunts: Players will now be able to add insult to injury with a well-placed taunt. Pressing Left or Right on the directional pad will cause a fighter to taunt their opponent mid-bout.
- Kick Catching: Players will now have the ability to catch opponents’ kicks during parries if the attacking fighter has low stamina or high leg-damage when throwing the kick. If the parry button is held, a takedown will be initiated.
- Single Leg into Half Guard: Successful basic Single Leg Takedowns will now end up in Half Guard.
- Stamina: Stamina loss on Strikes Landed has been adjusted.
- TKO Stoppage: The referee will now stop the bout if the submissive fighter blocks too many strikes without trying to improve their position during ground and pound.
