  • 230 exclusive licenses for boxers (Over 100 World Champions), trainers, cutmen, promotors, brands and networks
  • More boxers will be announced as the team adds more fighters this year and beyond
  • First public beta inside the development studio took place last Friday. The team will concentrate on the feedback and work on those areas
  • Haymakers have been implemented. Power shots now exist for every punch style. If you connect you might score a knockout. If you miss you leave yourself open for a counter.
  • Version 2 of the countering system is now in the testing phase. Players will be able to counter based on their movement and position, instead of relying on a button press to activate a counter window.
