Critic Reviews
By Luca Saati
EA Sports UFC 5 is undoubtedly the best installment in Electronic Arts' series. The technical revolution with the Frostbite Engine enhances realism, making gameplay spectacular and rewarding. However, the repetitive single-player career needs a major overhaul.

UFC 5 is an exceptional fighting game that delivers a thrilling and authentic representation of mixed martial arts. Its brutal combat, deep gameplay mechanics, and enhanced presentation make it a must-play for MMA enthusiasts and hardcore fighting game fans. However, those seeking a more accessible and fast-paced experience might find the game's slower pace and technical demands challenging. Ultimately, the decision to purchase UFC 5 hinges on whether the game's realistic and strategic approach aligns with your preferences and gaming style.

Although not perfect, EA SPORTS UFC 5 is perhaps the best MMA combat game to date. The new combat additions, the numerous combat modes and the career mode, which despite being the same as the previous one, has not gotten any worse. Only a few minimal technical issues and the number of fighters present in the game remain to be improved, which will probably be added throughout the life of this title.

UFC 5 presents itself to the public as one of the best games ever created for MMA fans. EA's choices to leave it only for next-gen have paid off. Extremely realistic graphics and a gameplay compartment faithful to real fights provide an enjoyable and fun experience to play. A treat for lovers of Mix Martial Art.

The license doesn't suffer the same fate as some of the publisher's sports games, and this allows the developers to make some real changes. This is the case for EA Sports UFC 5, which benefits from the use of the Frosbite engine and brings a number of visual novelties while fine-tuning its gameplay. Realism is the order of the day, with an injury system that affects our fights and longevity in career mode. Nevertheless, the title remains relatively inaccessible to new players, while the content itself remains rather weak. If you're not a fan of career mode, online battles become very repetitive. It's clear, however, that the franchise is heading in the right direction.
