EA Sports has officially announced UFC 6, the next installment in its long-running mixed martial arts video game series, revealing two distinct editions headlined by a pair of the sport's biggest names.
Light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira graces the cover of the standard edition. Known as "Poatan," the 38-year-old Brazilian carries a professional record of 13-4 and holds the light heavyweight title. Standing six-foot-four with a 79-inch reach, Pereira is one of the most physically imposing fighters in the sport. His 62 percent striking accuracy ranks among the sharpest in the division, and he lands 5.16 significant strikes per minute.
Max Holloway, nicknamed "Blessed," appears on the cover of the Ultimate edition. The 34-year-old American competes at lightweight, where he is currently ranked fourth in the division and ninth in the pound-for-pound standings. Holloway holds a career record of 27-9 and trains out of Gracie Technics. He lands an exceptional 7.2 significant strikes per minute, one of the highest outputs in the entire sport, backed by 48 percent striking accuracy.
Why it matters

- The dual-edition structure mirrors EA Sports' approach with other titles, offering publishers a way to spotlight more than one star simultaneously.
- No release date, pricing, or gameplay details have been announced, leaving the full scope of UFC 6 still unknown.
