Looking to find out the UFC 5 release date? You’re in the right place. The full reveal of the game has arrived in early September thanks to the official social media account.
With the UFC 5 cover athletes also revealed, we can’t wait to get stuck into the action. As part of the full reveal back in September, the UFC 5 official release date was confirmed.
The official trailer for the new UFC game was also unveiled, as well as the beginning of pre-orders so you can secure your copy of the game. EA are also now in the process of revealing the roster and official UFC 5 ratings too.
When is the UFC 5 release date?
The UFC 5 confirmed release date is October 27. There is no pattern to the previous MMA video games from EA, but they were always unlikely to release NHL 24 and UFC 5 too close to each other.
This date also comes with a UFC 5 early access period, which is three days long.
UFC 5 official reveal trailer
Watch the official UFC 5 reveal trailer below. Premiering on September 7, EA Sports has dropped its first real glimpse of what to expect inside the octagon this year.
Who is on the UFC 5 roster?
Will we see any new fighters in UFC 5? Fan favourites Jon Jones and Israel Adesanya are two high-profile mixed martial arts stars that will feature in the game.
Sean O’Malley is the new kid on the block within the UFC franchise and should also excite fans with his exhilarating striking power.
Conor McGregor is not a top contender in UFC these days, but he still has mega pulling power. Securing his likeness in the game is a major selling point for EA. Jorge Masvidal and Leon Edwards are among the other athletes we are desperate to see in the game.
What platforms will UFC 5 be available on?
Previous UFC games have been available across all major PC, Xbox, and PlayStation consoles. However, producers have confirmed that UFC 5 will be a next-gen only game. Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 will be the only platforms compatible with the game.
We will have to wait for official confirmation for Nintendo Switch fans.
A teaser trailer was displayed at Gamescom 2023, telling us that a full reveal is coming in September. There was no gameplay in the trailer, so we had to wait for the full reveal of EA Sports UFC 5.
