Not sure how to embed but looks like Volkanovski, likely on the cover.

That's definitely Volkanovski, his arm tattoo is spot on. What I also noticed is probably inside game engine footage , because if you take a close look at Herb Dean's animation , it looks exactly like the one we have now. Really excited!

Somehow I have a really good feeling about UFC5, I think that we will finally get the MMA game we all want.

It seems like they are pushing the next gen consoles finally instead of the ps4 visuals we saw in UFC4. Not only that but UFC4 felt rushed in every way.

This time they took around 3 years for the new game, I think a lot of people will be suprised in a good way this time.

The teaser alone is only 11 seconds but already gives me a sense that they perhaps go for a somewhat more realistic aproach, I think it will be a totally different game then UFC4 in a good way

What they absolutely need to do this time around is just make a solid current gen version with 60fps.. all bells and whistles. and keep the last gen at 30fps or just an updated ufc4, just like they do with fifa

This animation is reminiscent of the same approach they used in 2013 when they showcased the EA UFC 1 game animation for the first time at E3.

Man, I wish I could be this optimistic.

My gut feeling is the visuals will blow our minds..

They probably will remove the backyard and that other dumb arena and will add different types of arenas like in EA MMA... If not I will delete my account here.

PrideFC will also be back with a bunch of icon fighters along with the sophisticated ruleset.

Couple of weeks until we get confirmation

Visuals will need too match up with the gameplay.

I really don't see any of this happening. PRIDE was in Undisputed 3 in part because THQ were screwed financially and thought leaning into the nostalgia for that would help dig them out of the hole (it's why they leaned so hard into Attitude Era WWF for WWE 13 that same year.) but also bevause UFC were still actively leveraging the PRIDE video library at the time. They're not now.

Your expectations are far too high given the little we know about the game, but I wouldn't complain if we finally got a good EA UFC game. I just don't see it happening.
