EA's Fight Night makes a comeback with its second entry. Players can once again design their own boxer and begin a journey starting as an amateur in a gritty Queens, NY gym, climbing the ranks to become a champion. Or, you can step into the ring and retrace the paths of boxing legends. For those looking for a quick bout, the game supports matches against the AI or live opponents. Round 2 introduces several new elements, including detailed particle effects that capture blood and sweat splashing dramatically in ultra slow-motion. The "Total Boxer Control" system, which allows you to execute punches through precise analog stick movements, has been refined for better responsiveness. Players can also extensively customize their boxer's look, right down to the shape of the head and ears. The soundtrack features a dozen modern hip-hop tracks, though they've been cut in a way that some may find disappointing.
