As a long time UFC fan I was excited for this game as I loved the first mobile game. The game overall is great and is mostly an improvement from the first game. Pros: Visually it looks amazing especially compared to the first game Much more customization with your account and even the fighters can have different poses and frames More game modes to get different rewards then just going up a ladder fighting The gameplay is very smooth and the mechanics are easy to understand The fighter level system is simple It’s fairly easy to get new fighters and you don’t have to spend money or save in game currency for a long time to get new fighters Cons: Not much diversity in the striking and lacks control of what punches/kicks you want to do In game currency rewards for each fight are a little small and doesn’t seem to change on how good/bad you are When selecting fighters for your team you have to individually remove and add each one; no option to clear all My review is essentially a comparison to the first game and honestly this one is a major improvement with some aspects needing a touch up. Hopefully with future updates the striking gets improved to where we can tap at a specific area of the body and that will be the strike used instead of just tapping and your fighter doing whatever strike it wants. I will be looking forward to the next updates/changes and adjust my review in time.
there has really never been a longer and/or more boring tutorial ever in the history of all games ever made, ever. you are hurting the image of MMA with this professional tag youre it style of fighting competition that resembles the american karate competition's judging and scorekeeping. im only giving this game a 5 star review because i love the sport and only want more exposure to gain its support and sponsors. warning: work on it please, tons of time, tolorance, and patience for update improvements are required to play it more than once.
Honestly I don’t think the makers of the game will actually see my review but I’ll make a review anyway. So when it comes to being player friendly, the game is pretty good. You don’t need to spend money to get fighters, and you get currency rather easy. On the other hand, most people play the game because of the fighting. I reallyyyyy have a bone to pick with the combat system. The combos can be too slow, too glitchy, and sometimes don’t work at all. I’ve even had times where I can’t even block or evade incoming punches. If you went back to the same combat system as UFC 1 mobile the fighting would be immensely better in my opinion. As a UFC 4 player, it feels wrong to see the combo strings that you can do in UFC 2 mobile actually land. For new players they probably wont understand why I believe the combat system should change. Although, everyone who watches combat sports and plays the UFC games will totally understand my point of view and many might also side with me. I hope you take using the UFC 1 mobile combat system into consideration.
The game has such a good potential, good graphics and good physics, But You need to work on the following components to make the game more complete. 1) First and important thing is a bloody effect’s in the game, guys this is the UFC it needs some blood 🩸 during the fighting. 2) second thing is a better decoration of the evening, when the fighter wins, needs longer time to celebrate the victory, the repetitive shots from different angles is definitely needed. 3) Third is a Referee and Commentators make the fight more spectacular, more emotional and impressive as it really is. 4) Fourth it is to choose the complexity of the championship, for example : (easy, hard, extra hard ) If you do all these components this game will conquer big peaks, otherwise some guy will download this game a week of fun after that deleting it and forget about it)) I hope you read the comments and take note of all the advice I wrote ❤️
I have no idea how this game is rated so highly, it’s not just flawed, it is HORRIBLE. Incorrect terminology is used from the start, you get a tko in the opening tutorial, and the game says you win by submission, but that’s just a petty complaint, not what makes this game so bad. The controls are so ridiculous, you tap the screen and swipe for strikes and combos, no ability to choose left or right , no ability to choose jab or hook. You also build a bar up to perform a specialty attack. It’s a corny, poorly implemented version of the game. Don’t describe the game as realistic mma game and not give the ability to select strikes. I know developers probably work hard to make this a good game, just describe it as an arcade fighting game, and most of the criticism would be invalid. It doesn’t seem like a game that should have ufc fighters as playable characters, everything from controls to animations and building up a speciality attack bar, screams mortal kombat or streetfighter. Not a “realistic mma game”
I was excited when this game came out since I really liked the first one, menu setup and store is alright I guess and the new upgraded looks for everything/graphics is an upgrade but when it comes to actual combat it’s terrible compared to the first. Super delayed striking and blocking and when you get delayed and punched the AI will wail on you and practically KO you with you literally being able to do nothing about it (in early levels when AI is not as good too) but I guess it’s still worth a try if you can adjust to the delay and style of combat because personally I really like the rest of the game and the new images and swapable images are great as well, although i don’t know how you would unlock any of them without buying them with real money
Hello EA, i know you probably could care less about what i have to say on your game because your probably already making big bank off of it but, if you could please listen to this review all the way through it would create something beautiful. In your next game (UFC 3 or something) please make it more like UFC 1, the original, at least the movement, it had a great flow to it, whereas this feels more like and arcade rockemsockem type game which i don't really enjoy, the graphics and characters look amazing, other then the flow and stuff it's great. Please make the next game more simulation like and not flashy KO omg you won, make it difficult, make it engaging, please. Thank you guys!
When you starts its fun but once you complete some campaign and all that it starts getting dumb its hard to get coins you can only upgrade a couple when you fight harder fighters there is nothing you can do with the punch power my power be 100 and theirs be 127 but they hit me once my health goes from 100% to 80% and when i hit them they go from 100% to 96% its dumb no way there is that much difference then to block u try like 4 times and it just stays there to get knocked out and super hard to get coins yall gotta improve so much🤦♂️ this game is mid i get is mobile but it could be way better
That’s it. Everything else is ok, and the graphics are a decent upgrade, but the combat is just terrible. The first ufc mobile had MUCH better gameplay. You could actually control your strikes in that game. You could mix up body and head punches and could grapple and do submissions, as well as use multiple special moves in both grappling and standing up. In this game, the striking is so delayed and robotic it looks horrible. There’s only one special ability per fighter and they completely took out the grappling portion of the game from the first. They should’ve improved the gameplay of the first, not replace it with this terrible system. Hopefully they update it, but for now, it’s boring and not worth your time.
The first version was way better. It’s like there was no supervision from the ufc in this game. Fighters are in wrong weight classes and there is no ground game in this version. You can win any fight by just swiping the same combo over and over again, try it for yourself if you don’t believe me. The style of fighter and the difficultly is a good addition but I feel like other than that everything about this game made me rage as a huge fan of the sport and the UFC. I would be embarrassed if I was Dana White and this game was released with so many errors. I am not a person to write reviews but I am passionate about this sport and the UFC and I enjoyed the first UFC game but this is just sad. I had high expectations for this game when I saw it, but was sadly disappointed.
This game is nothing special. When you start the game you can only do campaign and it gives you bad fighters. Additionally there is no fight now mode where you can fight against any fighter. Additionally I don’t think there is any wrestling and ground game in this game, and the fights are so u realistic letting you use multiple guys after each other in a fight to diminish the guys health. It’s also to easy and simplistic the controls and is overall boring. Each fighter only has one combo which is… bad. Right now mortal Kombat on mobile has better gameplay than this game. If new updates regard any of this, and I will update this review if my opinions change.
The game is made extremely lazily it’s cheap and repetitive it’ has no controls and the fight style is just tapping and swiping and the graphics are cool but that’s it. The tutorial is extremely long and over detailed and does a poor job explains the game. It’s incredibly boring for a fighting game. It becomes pay to win after a while and it’s just a cash grab by the ufc it’s not worth the download and it’s extremely disappointing for a UFC game and also just a boring and cheaply made game
In campaign mode when completing the game event of triggering a submission. By triggering this event you have to do a core strike. After your opponent slams you, it doesn’t give you and window of opportunity to do another core strike if not completed the first time. In addition to there being no pause button to allow your to reset the event to exit out of the glitch. As for leaving this event, you have to restart the entire app.
The striking mechanics are a little delayed and that animation after being hit leaves you vulnerable to continuous combos. The parry mechanics are weird to sometimes it works sometimes it just makes you swing. The ranking up the fighters is weird to I fully upgraded a couple fighters attributes with the coins that you earn but you need a totally separate item to increase the rank past ten and apparently they are pretty rare and the only ones I really seen were for purchase so that tells you about the game right there I’m really trying hard to enjoy and prob will keep playing because I know they will make it a lot better soon hopefully
Please,Bring back previous mechanics/Gameplay with new roster.
Fan of UFC and mma combat sport. This is/was the most realistic/fun app there is available BEFORE the new update. The game got stale and repetitive inactivity of users, but the controls and gameplay visuals were still on point. After the new update, yes sure the visual graphics are nice but almost cartoonish like.. too many special effects; makes it look unrealistic. Giving 2 stars for the update itself, before it was a 4 star. But if the previous visuals and gameplay is restored back along with new roster, it would be a 5 star. New update made game too much like an RPG way too complicated when it’s meant for just quick matches and competition.
I deleted this awful piece of trash the same day I downloaded it. I only gave it 1 star because it wouldn’t accept 0 stars. I truly loved the original game! But they (EA Sports) took everything fun out of it when the made this version. You don’t even control anything that the fighters do. And the story is nothing but tedious. I don’t know who they listened to when they made all these changes, but it wasn’t anybody who ever really played the first one. All they had to do was add some modern fighters and a few new strikes, takedowns, & Jiu Jitsu holds and everyone would have been happy. It honestly makes me sad when I think about the old game and how much I enjoyed playing it. I miss it. 😞
Major Glitch which prevents me from advancing in the game
At first, this game was worth around 5 stars, and it was awesome. However, when I finished recruiting players from each class, it started glitching, and now whoever I try to do any major event in the “Events” section besides the campaign, my character says something along the lines of “Looks like Conor McGregor is recruiting players. We better catch up,” and then everything freezes when it gets to the part where it usually highlights where you have to go. I have absolutely no idea whether this is common, but it needs to be fixed eventually, as I can no longer progress in anything besides Campaign.
I have only been playing for a bit but this game has remarkable action riveting rivalries and a story that is unmatched the combo system is simple but allows for almost infinite variation me and my friends will play this game until we decompose fossilize and get born anew only because we will have our memories wiped when we are reborn but if this game gets reintroduced to us we will easily play it for another millennium 100% masterpiece
Fun game really enjoy the game very easy to attain the other UFC rosters!, may I add if you can show the UFC Championship belt during the cutscene when you win would be really cool to see . also the shorts different colors for each of the roster the grey and black kinda gets old overall I recommend this to anyone who’s a fan of UFC the guild and raids are pretty fun when you join a crew very nice game liking it so far .
This is the least enjoyable sports game I have ever played. The combo system combined with the unrealistic mechanics make the game look awful and takes all creativity out of the sport of MMA. What a shame! I don't understand how such an entertaining sport with some great games on other consoles can be so badly ruined in an IOS game. The devopers of this game should be ashamed of themselves, if this is the best game they could produce they should do themselves a service by considering a different line of work. I apologize for the harshness of my review, I am just so frustrated knowing how good this game could... SHOULD have been. Fix this game or remove it, don't disrespect MMA like this.
Since the last update, the fighting is totally broken. Your fighter just stands there like an idiot while you swipe as maybe 1 out of 10 moves register and the AI endlessly combos you or dodges the few punches that actually work. It used to be a fun game but in the last week, they reverted to striking that is even worse, more unresponsive and laggy than it has even been. EA has not acknowledged the issue at all so I’m guessing it was an intentional way to inflate the difficulty because people were having fun with the game and not spending enough money. Can’t have that of course. Avoid.
My favorite franchise and mobile game barely moves when you command it. Feels like I am driving a Lamborghini with a 4 cylinder engine. When I back away I had to swipe 5 times and my guy still didn’t move. Other moves are a little better. Blocking is delayed. Dodging is delayed. Attacks are delayed. Most knockouts are by hitting the stomach. Weird. This is my 3rd time Downloading this game and it is still the same as when they made me upgrade to UFC 2. Way too many fighters to manage. Why cant we just get a fighter and upgrade them? I had at least 3 or 4 of the same fighter. One star, 2 Stars and 3 stars. Sorry guys. It makes the game redundant. Running out of training. Makes it nearly impossible to pass training challenges when you have no training rewards to apply. Great graphics. Excellent sound. Menu and reward system is scattered all over the place. It was so good the way you guys had it before!
Did y’all just turn UFC mobile into an energy based game? I mean come on. I know ea milks money out of people but really? I got to say I am pretty disappointed with what the game turned into. The combat feels much slower and not nearly as fluid as before. And lastly, the insane reach with the hook. It’s pretty much just a teleport that should have never been implemented. I still like the game, as it is different in its own ways. But i don’t think this is what should have been done to it. Thank you.
You guys should be absolutely ashamed of this. This game is a massive fail and a massive disappointment. Besides an updated roster, I see literally zero areas of improvement and an absolutely ridiculous devolution of the striking mechanics of the first game. Somebody at EA needs to be held accountable for this horrendous sequel. Seriously, EA Developers must have spent the time they had to work on the game studying the Dim Mak instead! Everything EA touches turns to hot garbage. I can’t wait to see the documentaries that are eventually made about these dark and sad years where EA Developers slowly and methodically ruined every successful gaming franchise they owned!
I like the game but I always die easily cause I fight people that wights more than me EA if you can here me change the gameplay controls and make a little tough but Alford I enjoy playing the game sooo much it’s engaging can’t wait for ufc mobile 3 to come out it improved a little from the first one
This game is the worst game I’ve ever downloaded if I could I would rate it lower I would but you can get knocked out by a leg kick and a lot of the time when you swipe backwards to dodge or to parie it don’t work and you get rocked especially when your later in the game fighting opponents double your level and you should of won but it makes no sense and they want you to spend money to keep reviving your fighters I would stick to the console version of this game but other than that nothing bad I noticed besides them trying to make joe masvidal look good
I love this game, I’ve put a bunch of time into it and even some money. My only issue with the game is coins. You need so many coins to level up your characters and you receive so little from missions and packs. My fighters could be leveled up so much more than they are but I’m being held back by coins. It’s frustrating, I do still enjoy this game a lot but that holds me back a bit.
I like collecting my favorite fighters and leveling them up . I do wish there was more fighters from the ultimate fighter because you get to know those guys. Other than that gabe is a lot better than I thought it world be . Lots of fun and I’m super happy this is a game there should be more I’m looking forward to ufc 3 or different type of ufc game
The first game was OK and pretty fun this game is a lot worse
In the first UFC mobile you at least had more control over whether you kicked and punched hear you have a little bit of control on the punches but you basically just keep tapping your screen to kick and it will do combos and you do not get to control it at all it’s a lot less realistic than the first one and the first one was not the most realistic, this is definitely a downgrade
This is what I predicted especially since It’s a mobile game
Do I wish it was better, yes but it looks pretty good for a mobile game and mechanics are pretty good. But tutorial is way too long I don’t think you need a separate tutorial for everything but I think it was kind of worth it the the game over all and a great substitute While, I’m trying to find a way to play the ps4/ps5 one
Like the game so far, but where is head to head? Plus what about all the time,work, effort I put into UFC 1? I ONLY gave this a 5 star rating because I have optimism for this game. But it is a huge let down that there is dailies for head 2 head and we still don’t have Head 2 Head! Come on EA Get on it bro!!!
Pretty decent game!!! But where are stars and legends?
I admit there’s a little bit of a step down from the first one in gameplay but it’s really fun and makes unlocking stars not very hard, speaking of stars, WHERES KHABIB?? Where’s Khamzat? There is quite a few stars missing, such as Petr Yan, GSP, Anderson Silva, where are they? Are they coming soon at least? Overall decent game!!!
I love the game I do but I like the old one more it was more funnier to play and this one is just blah plain you should just bring back the old one I would rather play that this one is not that good tbh it’s just like yay it’s a easy win and once they get knocked out they out like with the other one it’s harder to knock them out but when you do on the old one it’s more satisfied
I don’t even have this game downloaded anymore after trying to force my self to like it for about a week I uninstalled it cause I was so disappointed and frustrated with how your development team has somehow made the graphics and controls worse then the first did y’all have the funding of a little girls lemonade stand or something cause it’s truly pathetic and I’m saddened to see what was one of the only good games on the App Store removed and replaced with nothing but a complete let down of a game do better.
i find the original time i played UFC (the best edition) a great game. short and simple. the graphics perstine. the views of many are insufficient unless its about the octagon, because I'd be Gone without Dana White. I don't know what I'd do without UFC. once again one of the greatest games of all time. someone please let this game download on my phone.
I’m going to be honest, this game is very eh to me. Very repetitive, no real story in the campaign besides fighting the same people up to 4 different times. Same prizes for every pack. Duplicate fighters a lot, more than new ones I might add. And when I get a “new fighter” it’s a duplicate but with a different rating or style, which makes zero sense. Lack of fighters is shocking. It’s literally the same 10 people in the game. Graphics are good, but movement is shaky and overall it’s very eh. Disappointed in EA for this one.
Don’t download the new game. It is garbage and EA has become nothing but greedy money grabbers. They screwed over the Madden users now they screw over the user of the ufc game. Lousy game makers. On top of that if you give a bad review it doesn’t posted. EA has done nothing but screw up the good games they had. What’s the problem? No qualified game builders so EA just puts out junk now? The game is horrible.
Why even have swipe up for uppercuts an swipe across for hooks when all the game play is just tap an it does random attacks 😂 the first UFC Mobile game was Fire had jabs an uppercuts an hooks by the way you swipe an tap an kicks were tap specials this game is an all around mess graphics are the best thing other than that this is a big step back from the first one I really hope this was just a trial EA does way better than this hope changes are made to striking first before anything else 💯
This game is a mobile game, so do not expect console quality. With that being said, it is a good game for what it is. Plenty of events and fighters to unlock, so it keeps you wanting to play more. Would be nice if the developers would reconstruct the blocking/defensive movements, but overall a fun enjoyable game 💪
I really do like this game, it’s fun and challenging, but I wish that it was more like the first one if you have ever played the first it was fun fun, you had more special moves, better level up system, and just an overall better game, this game is like they really decided to change everything, to me the fist one is way way way better and if they ever made a 3 make it more like the first.
The gameplay in this one compared to the first is horrible. It is so unbelievably unresponsive to my inputs and there is a very poor buffering system compared to the last one as well. Dodging is barely an option anymore now that your fighter goes to the complete other side of the ring when you swipe back. There is a strange amount of endlag after landing hits that just leaves you vulnerable for long periods of time. I really enjoyed the first one but this version is just lazy and poorly put together.
Honestly I was waiting for this game to come out because I was playing the old one but these are several things that look bad one of them are that’s it looks like a cartoon other are delayed punches and overall the game kinda looks now that good in my opinion the old one movement and graphics where better…
This game seems cool so far we’ll see how better it gets I just started it playing so we’ll see how it goes but I like the graphics so far not too bad it seems to be updated I hope to get better player tho sooner or later tbh
so after i had 2 characters in my club i was about to fight a boss and it only gave me the option to use 2 characters i wanted to use my strongest one to defeat the boss and the 2 characters i could only use were to weak to defeat the boss. i i know i’m able to upgrade my weak characters but at that point it would’ve been easier to put in my strongest character but it didn’t work i was clicking empty slot but it didn’t work either. the next day i tryed it again to see if it was a glitch but the next day it still didn’t work. please fix, thank you.😶
I’m really digging the game so far no crashes or anything pretty smoove so far been playin it all morning 💯but of course it could use some minor improvements Also has a tad bit of lag but other than that so far so good keep up the good work 💪🏾🏆
Thank you for getting rid of the charging punches and kicks. Fast paced, fun story line, good pass time mobile game. No ads too. Anyone complaining needs to buy a console and get ufc 4. This game is good for when you’re out of the house and bored on your phone. Stop sweating it
It’s a great game, I totally love it, all the graphics and fight styles, they’re so real, would love to rate you guys 5 stars but you should add gore to the graphics, a little bit of blood and swollen faces or a couple of injury stuffs you know, I’m sure I’m gonna rate you guys 5 stars soon, I’m definitely sure, keep the work up, it’s a great game
Like most reviews on here, the first iteration of this game is massively better. It’s like The developers took what worked In the first game and intentionally excluded it from this new game. Game play mechanics are severely unrealistic unlike the first game. I’m sad it was taken off completely even though I understand that user traffic dwindled but still the game was amazing! Please bring the combat mechanics of the first back with some embellishments and you can do whatever you want with the rest of the game.
So I love ufc m2 but it could have some improvements. like blood and were if you have beat conners camp the whole thing you get a option to make your fiters fite and like you choose which characters and of course you fight as one.
Should make Everything the same but keep UFC 1 mobile combat system because the moves don’t even seem real and felt like a downgrade from the first one it’s really glitchy and feels too Arcady but overall the game is good just needs a rework and characters should be automatically available where you can just choose your fighter in your weight class.
