Combat sports fans finally have something concrete to circle on the calendar. Just over a week after the official reveal trailer dropped - alongside closed beta participation and early community reactions - EA SPORTS UFC 6 is now set for its first official gameplay deep dive this Friday, May 15. The announcement came directly from EA SPORTS UFC's official X.
According to the post, the UFC 6 gameplay deep dive will premiere at 11 a.m. ET on Friday, May 15. While EA did not officially confirm where the presentation will air, it is widely expected to debut on YouTube, the same platform where the reveal trailer was originally released earlier this month.
