### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-29*

Only good mma career sim I’ve played so far, actually allows you to get wins at the start of your career. My one complaint doesn’t really matter but I would just make the other auto generated fighters have way less fights, for example I’m at like year 12 and I see a fighter with like almost 200 fights. Also, I became champion but I’ve only fought one guy and I’ve fought him like 8 times which is getting kind of annoying. Sorry for another thing, but I’ve also gotten to a point where i don’t see like the live play by play of the fights, like it just goes from me timing the punch back to the Home Screen and sims the fight, even though I never clicked the fast option, also I’ve gotten out of the repeated fighter loop. All things considered tho still is the only good mma career sim game I’ve seen.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! I'm really glad you're enjoying the game and that the early career progression stands out. I really appreciate the feedback about the AI fighters records and the repeated title fights too. I'm looking into both and hoping to improve them in the next update. Thanks again for taking the time to help make Cage Rise better!

I'll also investigate the issue where the live play-by-play skips and the fight appears to auto-simulate, as that definitely isn't intended. I'm glad to hear you've managed to get out of the repeated fighter loop too. There's also a big update coming next week with a number of improvements. Thanks again for updating your review and for helping improve Cage Rise!
