EA Sports, UFC extend video game partnership through 2030

The UFC is keeping Electronic Arts in its corner for the long haul.

Per a press release Thursday, EA Sports and the UFC have extended their partnership through 2030. For at least the next decade, the video game giant will continue publishing its EA SPORTS UFC franchise, which released its fourth iteration in August.

EA SPORTS UFC 4 was positively received by critics. The game holds a score of 83 on the review aggregation site Metacritic. Anticipation for the release was bolstered by the inclusion of former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar.
