Fight Night Round 4 fans, a new update from the team today about the upcoming Champions Pack. The pack will contain 5 boxers: Oscar De La Hoya, the Klitchko brothers, along with new versions of George Foreman and James Toney. Initially, the cost of the pack was to be 800 MS points / $9.99 but after further review taking into account community reaction, the cost has been reduced to 480 MS points / $5.99. The Champions Pack will be made available for XBL Gold gamers on Aug 20th while XBL Silver and PSN gamers will see the pack on Aug 27th.
Fight Night Round 4 swings its final punch, as online servers will be taken down next year according to a press release from EA.
Guess we won't see another Fight Night until next gen at the soonest. Did any notable boxing games come out this gen at all?
Fight night round 4 is still the best boxing game at the moment.
I still pop it in my old Xbox from time to time and nothing beats the feeling of a close fight in the late rounds.
cut the UFC Servers too , some of those grapples look awkward when people would walk in and see 2 guys straddling each other, i tried soo hard to make it not look weird
Round 4 was the best the franchise had to offer. You could find success playing to each fighters strengths and anytime somone wanted to spam a particular cheese i could always find a realistic boxing strategy to counter it. Champion started off pretty good but the game was very exploitable and became a cheese fest. The auto block severely hurt the game as well. If they ever make a new game i hope they look at how they achieved competitve balance in the gameplay of Round 4.

Improved 4K visuals, a new generation of boxers and improved multiplayer lobbies…man, that would be great. Until that day comes, Fight Night is going to remain outside of the periphery of the fighting game genre, as the ref slowly counts one of the finest franchises out of the ring.
Fight Night Champion was an abomination - but man, I'd love to see a new gen Fight Night game.
where is the buttons update me and a lot of my friends haven't played the game since the 1st week release of the game ..wats good e.a make it happen captain
