During the Strikeforce event this evening EA Sports revealed the first trailer for EA MMA. As was announced on Friday the game features Strikeforce as a premier league and several fighters from the promotion are already lined up for the game. EA used the opportunity of the first event in the US featuring Fedor Emelianenko to provide the debut footage of the game as he is one of the headline fighters for EA MMA.
The trailer features all in-game footage with the main event participants Fedor Emelianenko vs Brett Rogers. Continue on to check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments!

WoW all i can say
November 8, 2009 at 2:34 am
damn looks great. count me in as a believer now
November 8, 2009 at 2:51 am
game graphic wise looks really good. the way the contact looks reminds me alot of FNR4 which is not a big surprise seeing how there both from EA. not sure how i feel about it because to me it looks to much like fight night as i was hoping for something fresh but its only the first trailer so ill take the wait and see approach
November 8, 2009 at 3:20 am
you got to be joking….right! This game looks terrible,for one its a fighting based game made by EA,all you have to look at fight night round 4 its going to be atrocious,Ea needs to just stick to Madden and come out with another MVP Baseball game if they can.
November 8, 2009 at 3:52 am
There may be similarities but the games are made by completely different studios. Fight Night is out of EA Canada and EA MMA is out of Tiburon. Surely there will be elements that will be familiar to those who have played Fight Night, but there is a lot more to MMA than what you would get in a boxing game.
November 8, 2009 at 1:51 pm
Tubiron eh. That means fighters will morph through each other, features will be added, then removed, punchs will go through players. Good be EPIC fail. This isn't in-game footage either noob. This is some pre-rendered EA crap that you are led to believe is the real game. Have fun playing a game with over rated fighters who can't make it in the big leagues.
November 8, 2009 at 4:32 am
Yeah because they do Madden so well lol…
November 8, 2009 at 5:59 pm
@Mike_Lowery You're a fucking moron to say this game looks terrible. You're just a hater plain & simple. FN4 is an amazing game & graphics are top notch. Go crawl back in the hole you came out of.
November 8, 2009 at 7:33 pm
lol what? madden sucks
November 8, 2009 at 3:35 am
wow, where is the LIGHTING!
November 8, 2009 at 3:45 am
awesome trailer got me pumped!
November 8, 2009 at 4:05 am
WoW this looks aweful. I know that is is just a pre-lim trailer but compared to the UFC trailer its grabage. I agree it looks like its just a FNR4 with kicks and new people. Gonna be awfully horribly disturbing. I know believe that this is only a retaliation from EA to Dana White for what happened after Dana brought the game op to EA and EA called MMA "not s sport" and Dana went on to Dis them well deservingly. I think it will also be nothing without UFC fighters even those who have/do fight strikeforce. Because Dana has said that any fighter willing to put his image in this game, his UFC contract will be nul and void. Good luck with getting anyone to buy this game and like it.
November 8, 2009 at 6:04 pm
Wow people like you crack me up. "This looks aweful"? What more do you want? You probably won't be satisfied until we have holographic games to play. Quit your hating man. I'm one of EA's biggest critics but you just sound like a hater because bashing anything EA does is the popular thing to do.
November 10, 2009 at 5:11 am
Im not a basher of EA if anything i support anything they do when i can. I am against all the Madden haters with no respect to any of them. But i am however a avid UFC/MMA fan and train/fight myself. this game looks like a quick retaliation to Dana White and that is that. nothin more nothin less.
November 9, 2009 at 3:20 pm
Dude, I agree with you that shit looked like straight garbage!!!
November 8, 2009 at 4:20 am
F Yeah love it! Great video! And Fedor is a monster what a KO tonight!
November 8, 2009 at 4:24 am
FEDDOR KNOCK Rogers wit a BANG!!! i was like DAMN.
November 8, 2009 at 4:40 am
Probably a rent for me. It's not very encouraging to know that the same studio responsible for having a functional offensive line will also have the responsibility of making the ground game of MMA translate to a video game. We'll see, but not as excited as I am for the next UFC Undisputed.
November 8, 2009 at 4:53 am
I have a feeling that EA is going half ass this and expect people to get the game because it has EA Sports in the title. I know its just a trailer and even if it said actualy in game footage we all know its a lie but I honestly think that it isn't that great looking. Plus its EA so they wanna stay family friend, More sweat that blood anyone?
November 8, 2009 at 5:22 am
I gotta think that they know they can't get away with that. If the product isn't high quality, people will just stick with UFC and be happy with that.
November 8, 2009 at 5:01 am
Rogers Got HIs Ass Stuck With A Superman Quick Left.
November 8, 2009 at 6:26 am
I'll liked it but still no UFC undisputed….it could have potential…I'll have to see more video before I go for this game
November 8, 2009 at 6:38 am
This looks really good.
why are people saying the game looking like Fight Night is a bad thing..
last time i checked FNR4 had great graphics
November 8, 2009 at 1:54 pm
Great graphics doesn't make it a good game noob. Maybe for you, but not anyone else…..
November 8, 2009 at 2:49 pm
Don't speak for everyone else. I found FN4 an awesome game that forced you to box instead of just swinging away at will….You keep playing your Don King boxing, noob……
November 8, 2009 at 6:08 pm
Yea, FN4 is SICK. Great game with great graphics and great gameplay. More fixes and modes are coming next month with the DLC/patch.
November 8, 2009 at 9:29 am
not that bad actually
November 8, 2009 at 3:09 pm
So NOT impressed. Very generic body structures, very low lighting and graphically far less impressive than UFC 2009. Granted, it's very early but the trailer didn't impress me.
November 8, 2009 at 6:05 pm
Funny how people love to hate on EA no matter WHAT they do. People are childish and pathetic with their blind negativity. It's one thing to dislike the trailer but the way many add the additional EA trash talk is ridiculous. You would think EA can't make an enjoyable game, at all, listening to those type of people. People need to grow up, for real.
That being said, I wasn't wowed by the clip that I seen yesterday on another site. After the first screenshot released, I thought it was a great looking but even said that I needed to see it in motion. I'm a bit disappointed by the vid but it's only Nov. and the game isn't even due til sometime next year, maybe. It's way too early to be critical as they have a ways to go with devving the game. Plus it's a vid and videos don't always tell the whole story of a game.
November 8, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Now it's a fight! lol what a crappy tagline. Good luck Mr. moore trying to beat the UFC.
November 8, 2009 at 9:19 pm
looks alright…will at least keep us entertained until UFC 2 …lol
November 8, 2009 at 11:21 pm
UMMMM WHERE'S DA ACTUAL GPLAY I KNO A CG TRAILER WEN I SEE IT
November 9, 2009 at 1:45 am
lol its not CG. the graphics and some of the movement are just like Fight Night.
November 8, 2009 at 11:43 pm
Am I the only one who thinks UFC 2009 was an overrated game? MMA is all about "the game" within the game. I know these games will get better in time, but c'mon, UFC 2009 are for guys who Spike TV on Wednesday nights and call themselves "hardcore" MMA fans. I'm here hoping that EA ups the ante, because MMA games have been lacking all these years.
November 9, 2009 at 3:22 pm
That trailer looked like trash. Everyone in the room was laughing at how fak it looked compared to Fight Night and UFC, EA must have tried to save some money or that was a real early build because I was totally unimpressed.
November 9, 2009 at 9:39 pm
without ufc fighters this will FAIL.
November 10, 2009 at 6:20 pm
Erks me. MMA is more than just UFC. There are great fighters outside of UFC. This game will do just fine if they focus on gameplay and has a true and robust career mode and online leagues.
