Steel City Interactive, the team behind Undisputed<\/a>, has announced that it will be ceasing support for the boxing game ahead of a sequel. <\/p>\n

Undisputed was released back in 2024 after spending nearly two years in early access. It was the first licensed boxing game since EA\u2019s Fight Night, and was an earnest attempt to make something from next to nothing. The team was eventually able to attract real boxers and major boxing organizations to help make the game more authentic.<\/p>\n

Undisputed received mixed reviews from critics, including IGN (we gave it a 6<\/a>), but many see the potential in Steel City\u2019s vision. As a result, the studio has announced via a YouTube video<\/a> that it will be ending post-launch support for Undisputed to focus its efforts on a sequel. Not much has been revealed about the sequel, but Steel City\u2019s CEO, Ash Habib, stated the developer has recruited renowned talent from Rockstar Games, 2K, and EA Sports.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Ultimately, the decision to end support for the first game came down to the fact that the foundations for the original game were rocky, and difficult to build upon. To resolve this, Undisputed\u2019s sequel will be built on a new engine with world-class AAA talent. The studio has a deal in place with Muhammad Ali\u2019s team and has extended it until 2037 as a show of commitment to continuing with the Undisputed brand. A release window and further details are being kept under wraps for the time being, but more details will be shared in the future.<\/p>\n

EA\u2019s Fight Night franchise went defunct back in 2011 with the release of Fight Night Champion, and although there were rumblings that EA might bring the series back, it never happened. Instead, EA has invested in UFC, which has become a more dominant combat sport. UFC 6 is scheduled to release on June 19, 2026 for Xbox Series X|S and PS5, ensuring combat sport fans will still have something to enjoy while waiting for Undisputed 2.<\/p>\n
