EA returns to the ring with this fourth entry in the boxing franchise. Featuring a re-written gameplay engine, Fight Night Round 4 adds a variety of fighting styles and boxer differentiation to authentically emulate the greatest fighters of all time. Pressure your opponent with the brawling inside style of young Mike Tyson, bobbing and weaving to set up powerful hooks and uppercuts. Capitalize on Muhammad Ali's reach, hand speed and fleetness of foot to bewilder your opponent with lightning fast jabs and straights from the outside. For the first time in history, Fight Night Round 4 gives you the opportunity to pit these legendary heavyweights against one another and name a true champ.
No fight will be the same with an all-new physics-based animation system that recreates the full spectrum of true-to-life punch impacts, giving boxers a devastating arsenal of punches, blocks and ring movement. The new physics system allows for missed punches, glancing punches, knockout blows and for the first time ever, rough and tumble inside fighting. Fatigue, adrenaline, footwork and timing all come into play as you hammer away at your opponents.
Build your legacy on our back.
EA has told us that there's a new downloadable content pack heading towards Fight Night Round 4 early in December. It's hitting both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and introduces three new fighters and two new game modes. Also, the original game is now cheaper to buy at retail, with the new suggested price being $39.99.

Fight Night Round 4 hasn't been out that long, but it's already scheduled to receive its first piece of DLC. The DLC pack will be free to both XBL and PSN users sometime in early August, and will let them throw punches with the face buttons, as well as integrate a new training gym, "new gameplay sliders," and lots of new equipment. The only exclusive content for 360 owners will be an alternate version of Sugar Ray Leonard, provided through a Pizza Hut sponsorship. Read More »
I've never been a subscriber to the theory that boxing games fall into the "fighting game" category. Sure, while Fight Night Round 4 and its ilk all feature two combatants going war in a confined space (I think we can all agree that that's a solid definition of a fighting game), the paced nature of the action and the presentation is more akin to a sports game.
That's why I was so surprised to see EA officially pushing the game for Best Fighting Game consideration during this year's E3 show. Was it just trying to hedge its bets since there was a good chance one of its other games would win Best Sports Game, or was it legitimately trying to promote it as a fighter? Upon further review, it looks like the latter is true, and for good reason. Read More »
Only days after E3 wrapped in Los Angeles EA has released a ton of hi-res images from its nearly here boxing title Fight Night Round 4. The game is set to go on general release at the end of June, and there's a downloadable demo available for those who want a sneak peek.
