Electronic Arts has several games from its stable, all lined up for release this year. One such game is the MMA fighting game UFC 5 which just got its reveal trailer a couple of weeks ago. The studio boasts several improvements to the game, as it is now being powered by the Frostbite game engine that can also be found in FC 24. Thanks to this upgrade, the game now features new levels of realism and authentic damage effects. This Real Impact system also adds new strikes and grappling animations, which would make for an immersive UFC experience.
EA UFC 5 is currently open for pre-orders on both the Xbox and the PlayStation store. Let's take a look at the bonuses it offers.

The standard edition is priced at USD $ 69.99 / £69.99 / ₹4,499 for both Xbox and PlayStation. The price seems to be the same for both the physical and the digital editions although you might find the physical edition for a bit cheaper, depending on the retailer.
The deluxe edition of the game includes all the content that is part of the standard edition along with the following items:

The deluxe edition will set you back about USD $99.99 / £99.99 / ₹6,499 for both Xbox and PlayStation. Players who own an active EA Play membership will get $10 off the deluxe edition. This will be the same for players who own a PS Plus or a Game Pass Ultimate membership.
Although the price of the deluxe edition is pretty steep, it is worth it if you consider yourself a hardcore MMA fan as you get legendary fighters such as Mike Tyson, Fedor Emelianenko, and Bruce Lee added to your roster. Furthermore, you also get 3 days of early access starting on 24th October, while gamers who bought the standard edition have to wait until 27th October.
