MMA Federation – New MMA Game – Now available on iOS and Android

360 Studios is shaking up the Sports Sim genre with the debut release of MMA Federation , a new fighting game available now on iOS and Android. As well as a single player career mode, the game offers a multiplayer option. Players can challenge opponents across the globe to real-time fights; a world first for an MMA mobile game.

MMA Federation is a turn based battler at heart, with players able to call on moves from five unique fighting styles including Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kickboxing, Wrestling and Muay Thai. It’s already made major waves in Canada, recently ranking as the top fighting game on the App Store Sports Chart.

The game has some serious experience behind it, with studio head Rick Giolito having previously made his name as the creator and executive producer of flagship EA games such as KnockOut Kings and Medal of Honor .

“We wanted to create a truly authentic MMA game where players take complete control of their fighter – their look, fighting style and gameplay strategy,” offered Giolito. “We are working with top MMA teams like Tristar, American Top Team, Blackzilians, Straight Blast Gym, and Roufusport, as well as top promotional organizations including World Series of Fighting (WSOF) and Resurrection Fighting Alliance (RFA) in USA, Hard Knocks Fighting and Elite 1 MMA in Canada, Pancrase in Japan and BAMMA in the UK amongst many others. From Europe to South Africa to Japan, we wanted to create an immersive MMA world packed with real gyms, stunning arenas, famous fighters and MMA legends.”

“It doesn’t end here, either,” Giolito continued. “We’re also adding new features including a groundbreaking rewards system that’ll give MMA Federation players a chance to win real gear, tickets, VIP access, and memorabilia from the top MMA brands, teams & fighters. This is all about breaking away from the standard, and now quite tired, model most sports-based games seem to fall back on, offering up essentially the same game year after year. We want to set the benchmark for a more creative approach to the art of bringing real life sports to the hands, and fingers, of gamers.”

The MMA Federation world is intended to feel instantly familiar to fans of the sport, and the intuitive combat system means play will also appeal to casual players looking to take their first steps into the MMA arena.
