The first official Fight Night Round 4 footage will be shown during the broadcast of Spike TV’s Video Game Awards (VGAs). That is held live on December 14th at 9ET/6PT. If you haven’t seen the footage that leaked out of a Gamestop convention a couple months ago you can check that out here.
Some of the game’s developers set up a Youtube channel. For a short time it actually contained a look at in-game Mike Tyson but that was quickly removed. As of now it doesn’t have any game videos and probably won’t until after the Spike unveiling.
As to an official release date one has still not been set. Gamestop has adjusted the date in their system to 7/1 which is likely just a placeholder. FNR4 is still expected to be out sometime in Spring 2009.

Holy crap…FIRST….

i cant wait for more on FNR4 its going to be amazing

This is one game I cannot wait to hear details on. I hope that career mode is improved and deeper.
What would be cool is to take an existing boxer or legend and use him as a youngster. As each year goes by the boxer ages but doesn’t necessarily have to lose his skills. George Foreman was proof of that.

There’s a guy on the IGN board claiming that the new footage will be shown November 19th. Any truth to this Pasta?
Yo what up sdot!
November 16, 2008 at 12:11 am
Man why is EA being so tight lipped about the roster? They can at least release that can’t they? I’m sure the roster is in place by now.
I hope they don’t be too secretive like 2K was with Crapfighter.
November 16, 2008 at 12:32 am

November 16, 2008 at 5:15 am
Yeah they need to add some fighters to the roster Mayweather jr. and Calzaghe in particular.
But What I’m really waitin for is that UFC 2009 undisputed!
November 16, 2008 at 8:20 am
There is only one fighter on the roster that matters — Tyson!!
January 15, 2009 at 9:58 pm

@ sdot:
sdot what’s crackin? Same ol’ sh*t different day dog.
Yeah man Roy shoulda beat Calzaghe. I keep hearing that Floyd is in the game but i don’t know what’s true and what ain’t. That’s why EA need to stop playin’ around and drop that roster. I know the game ain’t out til next spring but at least let us know who in it to keep the hype up! Don’t be like 2K and release the full roster 3 weeks before the damn game came out. EA usually markets better than them so hopefully they’ll drop the roster soon.
November 16, 2008 at 3:20 pm
@ endz I hear dat same ish ova hear 2 LIL DUDES STILL TRYIN 2 RIDE ME
ILL
CAN’T wait 4 dis 2 drop c’mon EA let’s get da pipe line flowin
November 16, 2008 at 11:27 pm
Tysons sucks.
I’ll kill yall with De la hoya.,
November 17, 2008 at 11:37 am
Fight Night is by far my favorite EA Sports title. Can’t wait for this game!
November 17, 2008 at 8:51 pm
They better not have me in it othewise I’m suing. EA doesn’t have my permission unless they pay me 50 million in cash up front. and they better not have a custom option that makes anything that looks like me or else I will sue for another 50 million. If any of yall have a problem with this just tell me when and where and I will give you a personal beatdown on the house (that means for free). Well the 1st one is free the next one will cost ya

as my man Mark Jackson sez
Jay ur BETTA dan dat
November 19, 2008 at 11:05 pm
@ Jay:
Man how you gonna diss Roy like that? He was arguably the best fighter in the world the last 10-15 years and really didn’t lose until he had to drop like 30 pounds of muscle going back down to LHW to fight Tarver after killing Ruiz at HW. Roy in his prime was unbeatable and would’ve wiped the floor with Calzaghe. Calzaghe and his promoter back then Frank Warren both knew it, why you think Warren kept Calzaghe safe in Wales all those years? Now he waits until Roy’s way past his prime and f*ckin 40 to finally come over and challenge him! Calzaghe is so overrated!
I do like your list though but when you said “Forrest” Whitaker that kinda made me question your boxing IQ. I assume you mean Pernell Whitaker. One of the best fighters of the 90’s.

I definitely co-sign what sdot said. RJ didn’t even lose ROUNDS, yet alone fights! Dude flat out EMBARRASSED James Toney when Toney was in his prime and unbeaten! Don’t forget he beat a prime Hopkins easily with ONE f*ckin hand! He pounded Montell Griffin in ONE round after that BS DQ Montell got off him and stole his belt. Roy was THE MAN for years in boxing!
November 20, 2008 at 12:50 pm
