Fight Night Champion Patch Released

The patch for Fight Night Champion has arrived a day early for the 360 and PS3. Still scheduled for Tuesday is the release of the downloadable content and a gameplay tuner update. Details on what the patch intends to improve with the game can be found here.

Early reaction is mixed with some believing the changes to be largely positive (particularly the punch accuracy) and others finding immediate faults (body punch spamming). There have also been some isolated issues reported such as consoles freezing and trouble accessing online play that could potentially be related to not getting the tuner update at the same time as originally intended. It is something that will have to be monitored as everything rolls out this week.
