Is Alexander Volkanovsky on the UFC 5 card? How to sign up and register, UFC 5 closed beta, release date and everything you need to know about EA Sports’ UFC game

The UFC makes money from many other ventures outside of their events. They sell their official merchandise, fight gear, and more, which generates healthy revenue for Dana White and Co. The official EA Sports UFC games are also a venture that has made the UFC rich. Fans have also been hooked on the UFC game since its launch in 2014. EA Sports has launched a new game every year since then. However, most UFC gamers were sorely disappointed when UFC 5 failed to debut in 2022 as expected.

But the latest reports suggest that the fans who are waiting for it will soon get some good news. Recently, EA Sports released a short 11-second teaser for the highly anticipated UFC 5. It also partially revealed a notable UFC fighter who will be on the cover of UFC 5. But even after revealing only the chest and chin areas, it’s enough for fans to realize who the fighter really is. This has made the community of UFC gamers even more uneasy about the launch of the game.

When is the UFC 5 release date?

As already mentioned EA Sports officials have announced closed beta registrations for the game. But EA Sports officials revealed that UFC 4 will add more characters and improvements to the game by the end of 2022. So, many fans might have predicted that the release of UFC 5 won’t happen anytime soon.

But this teaser might have come with a big surprise factor for them. Also, EA Sports officials also said that the full version of UFC 5 will be released in September this year.

EA Sports officials are working to add fighters like Jack Della Maddalena and Erin Blanchfield to the UFC 4 game. Amidst such a situation, many fans can applaud them for their dual-channel work to produce UFC 5 simultaneously.

How to sign up and register for UFC 5 Closed Beta?

UFC gamers have one more reason to get excited. EA Sports has also opened its pre-registration page for those who want to check out the game once it releases in September. But only a limited number of players will get codes to watch the game after its release.

So here’s what you need to do to get your own registration code to try out the upcoming UFC 5:

1. Go to the UFC 5 closed beta registration page at 'https://www.ea.com/games/ufc/ufc-beta-registration’.
2. Sign in to your official EA Sports account. Create one if you don’t have one.
3. Choose your site and location from the drop-down list. Additionally, you must accept the EA Terms & Conditions.
4. Select Submit.
5. EA Sports will send out unique codes in late August. As already mentioned, only a limited number of players will get this opportunity.

Fans should also note the email ID they used to create their EA Sports account. After launching UFC 5 game the codes to play will come only to the registered email id.

Is Alexander Volkanovsky on the cover of the UFC’s new game?

As already mentioned, the recently released 11-second teaser for UFC 5 showcased a bit of one of the UFC athletes. EA Sports officials did not reveal his face. They released the video revealing only his chest, arms, gloves and a small part of his chin.

But he had many tattoos on his arm and we all know that tattoos are unique in most cases. These tattoos are probably the reason many fans have already worked out that the fighter in the UFC 5 teaser is none other than UFC Featherweight kingpin Alexander 'The Great’ Volkanovski.

However, the facial hair on the exposed part of his chin and the ears shown in the video caused many fans to say the same. But EA Sports officials have not confirmed whether the fighter featured in this teaser will be UFC 5’s poster boy or not.
