More Fight Night Round 4 DLC On The Way

EA revealed today that its first downloadable boxer pack for Fight Night Round 4 will be available in late August on Xbox Live for 800 MSPoints (or $9.99)  The downloadable boxer pack will include Oscar De La Hoya, Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir Klitschko, and alternate versions of George Foreman and James Toney.

In addition to the boxer pack,  a free downloadable game update at the end of August will include additional trunks, gloves and shorts, as well as a free button control scheme that will allow gamers to use buttons to throw punches, hooks, uppercuts and haymakers. A new demo featuring the button controls will also be available on Xbox Live by early September. The 12 round demo will feature Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali as playable boxers.

Finally, if you downloaded the DLC that was released last week, you may need to redownload it to fix a few errors that it had. Follow these directions to get the fixed DLC…

As you may be aware there is an issue related to the DLC Pack 1. Users who’ve downloaded this pack may experience situations where they load into game play (online and offline) and their controller config will be changed to button punch controls. This happens without warning and the button controls are not yet available as a feature via the Settings screen.

This issue only occurs for Xbox 360 users who’ve downloaded Pack 1 and the fix will be going live early (2 AM Pacific Time) in the morning on Monday, August 10, 2009.

After MS releases the update users must follow these steps to fix the issue:
- Delete Fight Night Round 4 Pack 1 via the Xbox Blade
My Xbox > Systems Settings > Memory > Hard Drive > Games > Fight Night Round 4 > Fight Night Round 4 Pack 1 > Delete
- Once it is deleted select to Play Fight Night Round 4 via My Xbox
- Press Start to advance to the Main Menu
- The user should be prompted with a new ‘Downloadable Content 1 is now available’ pop up.
- Select to download it.
- Once downloaded the user should no longer experience the ‘random button config’ issue during gameplay
- If users have previously unlocked Olympic Sugar Ray Leonard via the Pizza Hut promotion he will still be available/unlocked.
