Fight Night Champion Pre-Order Bonus

Fight Night Champion will launch on March 1, 2011 for the Xbox 360. Fans who pre-order the game will get a 100th Anniversary Everlast Boost Pack for your created character, giving you a competitive edge in the ring. There is a demo for the game available on Xbox Live, and we recommend that you check it out to see if you like the new improvements to the game. A new mode called "Champion Mode" adds a film-like progression and deeper narrative to the experience of punching people out. It revolves around a storyline which follows a boxer named Andre Bishop. Other classic modes, such as Legacy Mode (the career mode of the series) are expected to return. EA has said that there are more than 50 boxers featured on the roster, from historical champs to more modern contenders.

EA is promising a refined physics-based animation system and a new "Full Spectrum Punch Control" scheme. Check out the video below for more details on Fight Night Champion, as well as some impressive in-game graphics.
