EA’s UFC 5 is set to debut later this month, and enthusiasts eagerly anticipate what the game has in store, especially after a thorough three-year development process. The initial trailer release from the developers wasn’t met with an entirely warm reception from the gaming community, largely due to the game mechanics falling short of expectations.
EA’s attempts to introduce a fresh installment have left fans feeling let down. Enthusiasts have expressed their disappointment with the trailer, and leaks have only added to their misery. Recently, EA released updates regarding the fighters and rankings, and it didn’t bode well for the game’s development.

It’s been three years since the release of UFC 4 and the anticipation for the next installments is at its all-time high. UFC 4 gathered immense praise and love from the UFC community due to its groundbreaking features and thrilling gameplay modes. Consequently, it is no surprise that fans were eagerly looking forward to the next installment in the franchise, expecting an even more remarkable gaming experience.
In a recent move by the EA franchise, they’ve been sharing details about fighter character models, ratings, and statistics, which has generated significant interest among fans. Their latest update, posted on Instagram, has caused quite a stir. Fans couldn’t help but notice a remarkable development: Islam Makhachev has surpassed his mentor Khabib Nurmagomedov in terms of the ratings for takedowns. He surpassed Khamzat Chimaev as well.
The revelation by the gaming developers seems to have irked the fans. Fans have flooded the Instagram post to express their varied opinion. Some of the comments of the fans are as follows:-

98 takedown for khabib is outrageous
So islam have better takedowns than khabib?
khabib need 100 takedown he’s levels above everyone
giving Bo Nickle the same score as Khabib is disrespectful
Islam is better than Khabib
This game is doomed whoever rated this fighters should leave the company ASAP
They are just simply disrespecting the retired fighters in almost every division. Truly sad and disappointing.
The fans’ responses make it quite clear that they are far from pleased with EA’s recent rankings and statistics. Many fans are adamant that the developers seem to be trivializing retired legends and that Khabib Nurmagomedov should hold a higher rank with significantly boosted stats. Nevertheless, despite their passionate efforts, the game appears to have been already finalized, leaving little room for potential alterations.
