Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions varies-with-devices

The face-off between movie boxing champs

Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions is an intense arcadeboxing game that transports you to the Creed and Rocky movies universe. You can choose from 20 familiar faces, including Rocky Balboa, Ivan Drago, Viktor, Apollo Creed, and many more. The game also lets you play in local co-op multiplayer mode, so you can go head-to-head against your friends.

This dynamic sports game is developed by Survios, the same team behind Creed: Rise to Glory, a 2018 VR game. The developers have been in partnership with Metro Goldwyn Mayer movie studio since the first installment, making Creed Champions their second project together.

Immersive boxing simulation experience

Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions features robust boxing mechanics, with dynamic styles, combos, and super finishers unique to every character. To set the mood of the stage, you can also choose from 13 Classic and original arenas. So, if you’re a huge fan of competitions, you can be rest assured that your every win is going to have a cinematic knockout, paired with satisfying slow-mos and cheering crowds.

Its predecessor, Creed: Rise to Glory, had a very short and fragmented story mode—so short it could be finished in just 45 minutes. Thankfully, the developers fixed this by adding new stories with unlockable rewards in this new installment. Moreover, another issue from the previous version was that some of the controls were a tad too tedious, which is also improved through a simpler pick-up-and-play feature.

What they did keep, however, is the game’s brutal gameplay that will require you to make strategic moves. You’re going to have to analyze your opponent’s techniques and find ways to make an opening to land that winning blow. However, to have the best boxing simulation experience, the game requires demanding system requirements. Additionally, it doesn’t support online multiplayer mode, so you can only play PvP within your system.

Perfect for healthy competitions

To sum, Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions — from the elements of the arena to the fighting system — will undoubtedly give you a great boxing experience. The game is perfect for healthy competitions with friends, family, and even between yourself and AI. However, the lack of an online co-op feature means you won’t be able to fight with other players outside of your system.
