Gamers And Fighters Coincide At Upcoming UFC 200

If you're a big fight fan, you'll know that UFC 200 is right around the corner. And, if you consider yourself to be a big video game enthusiast, you've likely already spent hours and hours with the latest UFC video game from EA Sports. Being able to take control of your favorite fighter and going to war with your nemesis is undoubtedly a fun experience, but it could very well get even more exciting in the upcoming weeks. EA Sports has collaborated with the UFC once more to provide gamers with yet another amazing opportunity to connect with their favorite fighters.

EA Sports has just announced a brand new competitive online gaming experience. Those that currently own UFC 2 will be able to go to battle with other gamers from around the world, while gaining the opportunity to win some amazing prices. The UFC is widely known for its video games, as well as its betting nature. With the new gaming experience, players will be able to compete for the opportunity to be labeled the champion. The winner will also take home a $10,000 grand prize. So, how does it work?

Well, starting this Saturday, gamers will be able to partake in qualifying matches. These matches will have a major impact on the winners and everyone that participates will be able to win something. Even if you're unable to make it to the semi-finals, you could very well score a nice in-game item, which was previously unavailable. Gamers, who have managed to score the most points after the qualifying round, will be invited to the UFC's upcoming Fan Expo. The event, which will take place in Las Vegas, will serve several purposes.

First and foremost, the event will be used to build hype for the UFC's upcoming fights at UFC 200. Daniel Comier and Jon Jones headline the event. The event will also give fans the chance to mingle and chat with their favorite fighters. For gamers, who are lucky enough to accumulate enough points, the event will host the semi-finals. There, players will engage in hotly contested fights to see who will come out victorious. Once a winner is crowned, they'll be given $10,000 and will be able to boast to their friends about the experience.

Of course, it doesn't stop there either. Those that manage to make their way to the semi-finals will also be given the opportunity to enjoy the UFC 200 event live! So, whether you're a gamer, gambler, or just a big fight fan, you truly owe it to yourself to try and make it to the semis. And even if you're unable to muster up enough points, you could still win a previously unavailable in-game item, while having fun over the weekend.

If you're currently not keeping up with the latest NHL hockey picks, you should definitely make the switch over to MMA. When comparing the combat of both sports, MMA is bloodier, more brutal and a little more exciting. So, be sure to grab your PlayStation controller and get practicing. You're going to need it!
