Quick quotes: EA Sports refuses to rule out MMA sequel

ea mma

“A world where we’re not involved in fighting is a world I’d rather not think about. That said, what goes on in the sport, and what’s gone on between the UFC and Strikeforce, certainly has an impact on what we can do in the space. I am, other than [EA Sports MMA executive producer] Dale Jackson, probably the biggest MMA fan here. So it’s not a ‘no,’ but it’s also not a ‘yes’. “We’d love for there to be one because I’m a diehard fan of the sport. We have to figure out how to make that happen.” – EA Sports’ chief of development Andrew Wilson told Kotaku on the chances of an MMA sequel.
