### 4/5 — Potential

*2026-08-30*

I really have been enjoying the game and have bought MMA+, I feel like the game should have a custom potential system during career setup for those who have bought MMA+ while still having it random if you so please.

### 4/5 — Good start

*2026-08-30*

Fun game, good depth there are some small bugs that I’ve encountered such as when I went from pro kick-boxer to mma I lost all my followers.

### 4/5 — Bug?

*2026-08-29*

Gutes Spiel, gefällt mir aber mit als ich ein 80er Rating hatte ging das Spiel nicht mehr weiter irgendwie! Komisch weil es davor super funktioniert hat! 

Gibt es ein Rating Limit?

### 4/5 — Game is alright but it can definitely be amazing

*2026-08-29*

The game is great, however, a few changes should be made to make this game even better. 1) When starting your own promotion, campaigns don’t appear at all. In the market pulse, it says campaigns and list a number. When I book fight nights, ppvs, etc. i put money in for campaigns however, the number in market pulse doesn’t change. 2) You don’t get messages for your promotion. Ive simulated 4 years, 100 gate for everything, 93 popularity with over 10 million fans, I still haven’t gotten a message. 3) When you hire matchmakers, they barely make more than 6-7 fights per card even if you have over 100 fighters available to be scheduled. 4) When creating a new character, you can’t get higher than a 89 potential, however, theres been instances where I face people whose 94+ ovr. Ive tried to make over 50 characters and still haven’t seen a potential over 89 for MMA. Some more functions for creating the promotion would be nice. For instance, being able to change the PPV names, a real tournament system like how PRIDE had theirs in the past, more detailed fighting styles like pressure boxer, ground and pound, sprawl and brawl, top control fighter, etc. Make fight week an actual event like you did with career, press conference, weigh ins, media interview for CEOs to gain more popularity for their promotion. Showcase a rivalry system for promotions, more in-depth to allow the matchmakers to create trilogies, etc. Add broadcast deals PLEASE, allow us to go to a streaming service(paramount), national tv, local tv, global PPV. More title customization, like trophies, BMF style belts, regular belts. Dynamic style news, and allow your promotion to be on the world rankings tab (if possible, sorry if I’m asking for too much, just some ideas) and lastly, a sandbox mode and HOF for your promotion and the MMA world.

### 3/5 — Bon jeu mais beacoup de bugs

*2026-08-28*

Je suis bloqué à partir de 20-21 ans, le jeu reste en sauvegarde en continue et bloque la progression.

### 4/5 — I like it though I feel like it could use sum work

*2026-08-28*

We start off at 30 overall and I can only use light training as the energy it cost for anything else is to high the amateur league opponents seem to way to over powered at this level we start at. In my personal opinion if we do start at a really low level I feel like changes to the energy cost and the opponents overall would make the experience way better

### 4/5 — Fun but room for improvement

*2026-08-26*

Definitely a fun game would be awesome if you could start as a boxer as well also it seems I’m unable to get potential over 90-91 where as I’ve had npcs overall 98 it sorta makes it unwinable and definitely still a few bugs that need fixing

### 3/5 — Bugs

*2026-08-25*

Decent game has potential, but at end of every year it says I have to watch an ad to keep 100 energy a week so I do it but it still puts me down to 95 energy after.

### 3/5 — The game has massive potential

*2026-08-24*

Seriously can become a really good game just has a few things to iron out but personally for me I’m experiencing an issue with energy. Usually my striking moderate training would take up 94 energy but today it spiked up which made me resort to paying hfor 50 extra energy only to then have the same issue where it spiked up again past my energy cap, I don’t understand how this happened but I don’t think it’s fair that I need to keep paying money just to progress the game

### 3/5 — it needs work

*2026-08-24*

the game is good, still pretty buggy, but the actual in fight fight decision making is terrible.

my counter striking kick boxer shoots takedowns and keeps losing fights because of it. or if I do a wrestler, he won’t shoot a takedown when he’s focused on wrestle heavy. 

all in all, great start to the game, slightly unplayable when you get into the upper tiers since your fighter loses his brain stats and you can’t stat check.

### 3/5 — Fun but becoming worse daily

*2026-08-23*

It is so fun and cool to live the life of an MMA fighter. It’s very cool with much realism. But as I speak today they removed the ability to recover meaning you have to buy the stamina pack if you want to even get close to training well. This really kills the immersion because I bought MMA+ but another 8 dollars just for a good training camp is kind of wild. I hope they fix this and it becomes much better

### 2/5 — Fun but broken

*2026-08-23*

It’s a great game, but fights don’t appear, joined the dana white contenders and didn’t make it to the ufc and now I’m stuck without a contract

### 3/5 — OVR stuck

*2026-08-23*

No matter what I do, it says training no results (tried harder activities and changing body comp, even have best coaches and best gym)

### 4/5 — Fun but buggy

*2026-08-22*

Awesome game that is very in depth for a mobile title, but I’ve ran into a huge bug that’s keeping it from being 5 stars for me. Whenever I try to re-sign with the UFC, my game basically breaks and sims super slow and never saves after accepting. This has forced me to either stop playing until the bug is fixed or delete a save I’m 50 fights deep in. If this is fixed and fight night is fleshed out it will be the easiest 5 stars ever!

### 4/5 — Bugs

*2026-08-22*

I purchased the mma+ pass and have noticed a lot of bugs such as coaches and gyms not having intended effects also the create your own promotion feature is extremely bugged and unfinished teams don’t do anything I have full staff and it doesn’t register no option to run campaigns even though you get penalized for not having them

### 4/5 — Good game

*2026-08-21*

Please make the game quicker it’s too slow

### 4/5 — Good but

*2026-08-21*

All Good All But I Can Get 88 89 90 maximum 92 in luck but not any more better like maximum is 92 for player ?

### 4/5 — Fun besides for the game breaking bug I found.

*2026-08-20*

I’ve overall have enjoyed playing this a lot, but I’ve come across a bug when asking for a title shot, the game said it would give it to me  with a timeframe but when the time frame passed there was no fight offer. After this I asked for a fight in general but wouldn’t let me ask for a fight. So far a year has passed in the game with no fight ever being offered. 

Also just an idea for the developer, add a choice of difficulty when making your character that decides a range of what the characters potential is, maybe like very easy being 95+, easy being 90-94, medium being 80-89, and a hard being 70-79. Again this was just a suggestion.

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-08-29*

Game is still horrible making us pay for energy which u need to train yea this is a money grab this game is trash. And still haven’t fixed the overalls if all ais are 40+ and im 29 what im I suppose to do train for 6000 years and u cant even get a job because of the energy I do light training still cant get it if I could I’d rate this game -50 came back thinking it might have changed and wow end of year fatigue-5??? Like damn wow

**Developer response:** Sorry you had a frustrating experience. You are not required to purchase energy boosts they are entirely optional and only help players progress faster. The standard energy system has been extensively tested and provides enough energy to reach your full potential before your fighter’s peak age. You can also do things like move to a cheaper city or choose a high-paying job with a low energy cost to make progression easier.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2026-08-29*

### 1/5 — Stuck after turning pro

*2026-08-17*

I turned pro and it won’t offer me a pro fight I am just skipping weeks without being offered a fight ?

### 1/5 — Fight offer wait time

*2026-08-17*

What is this! I’ve been trying to get a fight for two years and not one offer at least when it first comes out you could call out a fighter and get a fight, nwo you wait and wait and there’s nothing there. Please fix this

*2026-08-13*

### 5/5 — Só precisa de português

*2026-09-02*

Coloquem o idioma português no jogo. Com IA. hoje em dia se faz isso rapidamente.

### 5/5 — おもしろい

*2026-08-29*

日本語対応をお願いしたいです🙇‍♂️

### 5/5 — Brilliant game

*2026-08-26*

Really fun game addicted to it just so much fun cant wait for future updates and hopefully more sports added like jui jitsu tournaments or boxing. But i have one problem suddenly i just stopped getting my stats upgraded when training dont know if its a glitch or something else but could do with some help

### 5/5 — .

*2026-08-24*

Loving the game can’t put it down. Is energy bought carry on for different fighters you make?

### 5/5 — Fighting Styles Need to Matter More

*2026-08-22*

For example, if I choose Counter Striker or Knockout Artist, I should be encouraged to keep the fight standing and use striking, counters, and knockout opportunities. Instead, it can feel like I’m taking down a wrestler more times than the actual wrestler. That doesn’t make sense for the chosen fighting styles.

### 5/5 — car glitches

*2026-08-21*

The game is nearly perfect the only problem is whenever i try to sell a car the game bugs out. And can the years update for the cars as the years go on😂 im in 2041 still purchasing 2022 cars. other than that perfect game

### 5/5 — H

*2026-08-20*

Muito bom somente acrescentar idioma português

### 5/5 — Amazing game has a lot of potential.

*2026-08-20*

Ive played this game for about 3 days now, and in that time Ive already basically learned how to completely navigate. I find the game itself very detailed and well thought out, although I have a couple suggestions. First of all, make it so more fight cards are booked for different organizations so that you as the fighter have more opportunities to be put on them, reducing your waiting time in between fights. I would also appreciate if there were more ways to make money during the early career, is money can be a struggle and I hate having to spam the work múltiple shifts button every single week just so I can pay my coaches. Lastly please make a discord server so other players can talk with eachother and share tips and discuss gameplay! Besides that great game and please keep up the hard work and continue updating it 👍

### 5/5 — Brilliant game

*2026-08-19*

Really fun game addicted to it just so much fun cant wait for future updates and hopefully more sports added like jui jitsu tournaments or boxing

### 5/5 — Jeu très prometteur

*2026-08-19*

Jeu très plaisant, je conseille
