Champion is a much darker game and became the first EA Sports title to earn a mature rating.

The next game however didn’t follow as its predecessors had. It took three years for EA to release Round 4, which featured Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton alongside legendary boxers Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson. The Fight Night series started in 2004, and a new edition was released annually until Round 3 in 2006. “After this date, you’ll still be able to play the offline modes on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.”ġ) I can’t believe anyone is still playing Fight Night Round 4 eleven years after it launched.Ģ) This definitely means it’s time for Fight Night Round 5. “As of March 9, 2020, the Fight Night Round 4 servers will be retired.” In the email, EA said: “Hello Fight Night Round 4 fans, After 11 years of an incredible online community, the daily active playerbase in Fight Night Round 4 has reached a very low number and we can no longer ensure a quality online experience.” Over a decade after the release of Fight Night Round 4 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the American company announced they would be closing down the servers for the game. And the game series has been somewhat neglected despite popularity with boxing and gaming fans alike.īut an email sent by EA has sparked rumours that this could be about to change.

Neither Round 4 nor Champion were released on PS4 or Xbox One. A post shared by FightNight on at 9:30am PST Big Announcement
