'PRIDE Mode' Heads to 'UFC Undisputed 3'

Perhaps taking a page out of EA MMA, UFC Undisputed 3, slated to hit stores in January 2012, will include a new mode with a Japanese influence -- the elements of the now-defunct PRIDE organization.

Game-maker THQ recently announced the addition of "PRIDE Mode," introducing to the game soccer kicks, head stomps and knees to the head of a grounded opponent. The announcement was also for the release date and other new features, so THQ didn't go into all the details of the PRIDE Mode, but players can expect the environment of PRIDE to be represented with smoke and lights during the fighter entrances and PRIDE commentators Bas Rutten and Stephan Quadros taking over the broadcast booth.

The Undisputed series was originally planned to be an annual series similar to other sports brands like the Madden series, but the decision was made to skip the 2011 version of the game due to lower-than-expected sales of 2010 and to allow more time to make a third game.

With the merger of the WEC into the UFC, the new Undisputed will also include the bantamweight and featherweight divisions.
