This update brings three exciting new fighters, three new venues, AI improvements, and more.
Below are the patch notes for the Italian Dragon Update, shipped on 23 May 2023 - 11296093.
- Joe Calzaghe added to the game with his own unique movement and signature punches. Calzaghe joins the light heavyweight and middleweight divisions. Check out his roster profile here.
- Tommy Morrison added to the game. Morrison joins the heavyweight division. Check out his roster profile here.
- Aadam Hamed added to the game. Hamed joins the lightweight division. Check out his roster profile here.
- Added Lighthouse Theatre, an old-school theatre with a striking curved ceiling and a backlit stage.
- Added Magna, based on a real-life science adventure centre located in Rotherham, England.
- Added Santiago Gym, a gritty, South American inspired fight venue.
- Implemented new body block animations so that shots to the body can be more effectively blocked, and we’ve also updated block transitions to make it look smoother.
- Adjusted the step-back straight animation to be more in line with other punches. This should make it more difficult to land more than one step back straight in quick succession.
- Punch cooldown that activates arm fatigue has been reduced. Arm fatigue should feel more consistent and less restrictive.
- Adjusted dodges when a fighter is close to the ropes. Players should now be able to dodge closer to the ropes.
- Adjusted weaving on the ropes so players can now weave back fully while on the ropes.
- Introduced AI fight strategy, which means AI fighters can now adjust to how a fight is going and can choose to be more or less aggressive, throw more or fewer power punches, adjust which punches they’re throwing, etc.
- Improved reactions to players' attacks, feints, turtling, and defensive play.
- Improved ring positioning.
- The AI is now able to feint punches, push, clinch and kneel.
- The AI should now land more counters.
