UFC and Dave & Buster’s Bring Fans Closer to the Action With New UFC Challenge Game

UFC and Dave & Buster’s have long partnered to allow customers to watch the latest fights while enjoying food and games. Now, according to a press release, they’ve taken their shared interests to the next level with the launch of the UFC Challenge game.

The game is available at Dave & Buster’s locations nationwide. This high-energy interactive game is set to amplify the fight-night experience, further establishing Dave & Buster’s as a premier destination to watch every UFC matchup.

Dave & Buster’s UFC Challenge game is inspired by “competitive arcade gameplay,” according to the press release. It was developed by the “eatertainment” venue, Rider & IGPM Distribution, Adrenaline Amusements, and Betson.

The enormous game is 11 feet wide, 12 feet tall, and 1,700 pounds. It measures players’ speed, accuracy, and endurance.

Here’s what to expect from Dave & Buster’s UFC Challenge Game:

• Single-player mode: Test your endurance in three fast-paced rounds and see how many points you can rack up. If you hit 200 or more, you’ve got bragging rights as a UFC champ.
• Two-player mode: Go one-on-one in a real-time battle where every hit counts. Land clean shots to build your score, but miss too many and you’ll start losing points fast. Drop to zero, and you’re out.
• Immersive UFC experience: With official UFC gear, Venum Fusion fight kits, and “Face the Pain” blasting in the background, you’ll be fully immersed in the action.
• Strategic gameplay: Throwing hands isn’t enough — mix in knee strikes to rack up extra points and take the win.

Dave & Buster’s Remains the Ultimate UFC Viewing Destination
