The development team at EA Sports is ready to reveal the official cover of its upcoming UFC video game and also announces that it will deliver a full demo for the title before it is officially launched.

The new Ultimate Fighting Championship simulation will be offered on the Xbox One from Microsoft and the PlayStation 4 from Sony on June 17, which probably means that the demo version will be offered to the community one or two weeks before.

The confirmation comes from an official Twitter message from the development team.

The official cover is pretty standard and does not feature Bruce Lee despite the big marketing push that has been built around his inclusion in the game.

Gamers will be able to unlock the legendary actor and martial arts practitioner by completing the single-player content or by simply pre-ordering the title before June 17.

EA Sports UFC is designed to use the new Ignite engine in order to create a very realistic experience, with all the fighters included in the roster carefully simulated in order to offer an experience that’s as close as possible to that of the real sport.
