Undisputed Boxing Game Adds Jake Paul to the Roster

Key Takeaways

  • Steel City Interactive is releasing a new Undisputed DLC with Jake Paul and other fighters on December 12.
  • The controversial addition of Jake Paul has sparked fan backlash, with some urging players not to purchase the DLC.
  • Jake Paul will come with two additional outfits, while all other fighters will come with one alternative outfit.

As a long-time boxing game enthusiast, I’ve seen my fair share of DLC expansions over the years, but none have left me quite as divided as the upcoming ‘Problem Child’ pack for Undisputed. On one hand, I’m thrilled to see the roster expand with some legendary fighters like Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales. On the other, the inclusion of Jake Paul has sparked a wave of controversy that I can’t ignore.

Without a doubt, game developer Steel City Interactive has declared that they are planning to launch a new DLC pack on December 12, featuring Jake Paul, the contentious boxer, in their game. Apart from the boxing personality turned influencer, the ‘Problem Child’ DLC for Undisputed will also encompass Zhilei Zhang, a former WBO interim heavyweight champion, Buster Douglas, a previous undisputed world heavyweight champion, Swedish heavyweight Otto Wallin, and others.

27-year-old me, Jake Paul, has been stirring things up in the boxing scene since my initial professional match against fellow YouTuber Ali Eson Gib, whom I managed to knock out in the first round itself. Post my debut, I’ve faced and defeated multiple MMA fighters, including Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren, and even legendary striker Anderson Silva. The fight scheduled against Mike Tyson was postponed initially, but last month, we stepped into the ring together in a somewhat contentious match that saw me emerge victorious. As for my next opponent, it remains to be seen, but fans will soon have the chance to face me in the ring themselves with the upcoming Undisputed DLC pack!

Undisputed Adding Jake Paul in New DLC

In their recent press announcement, Steel City Interactive revealed that Jake Paul will join the game Undisputed starting December 12. This is part of the new ‘Problem Child’ DLC pack. Alongside Jake, six other fighters – Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Juan Manuel Márquez, James ‘Buster’ Douglas, Otto Wallin, and Zhilei Zhang – will also be included in this paid expansion. Steel City mentioned that each of these new characters will have an alternate outfit available, with Jake Paul offering players a choice of three distinct in-game outfits. The developers stated that Paul underwent motion capture to ensure his in-game character embodied his unique fighting style, blending his actual combat skills with his confident, bold personality.

Similar to Jake Paul stirring up debates, the inclusion of him has been quite contentious indeed. Over on Reddit, some players are advising others against purchasing the upcoming DLC due to a myriad of bugs and glitches in Undisputed that are yet to be fixed. Fortunately, a new update is scheduled for release on the same day as the DLC, but a moderator’s post on one of the game’s Discord servers suggests this update won’t be a complete solution, hinting that it may not resolve many of the problems gamers are still grappling with.

Steel City recently released an unexpected update for the “Undisputed” game in November, contrary to their earlier statement about a delay until mid-December. This update addressed several major problems within the boxing game, like tweaks to block colliders, stamina, power punches, and even toning down Deontay Wilder’s overpowered abilities. However, with numerous other critical glitches persisting (like one impacting players’ in-game records), fans feel that the studio should be focusing more on gameplay enhancements first.

On December 12th, the DLC titled “The Problem Child” from the game “Undisputed” will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC platforms. This release will also include The Apparel Pack, offering unique ring outfits as an addition to the current roster of fighters like Deontay Wilder, Roy Jones Jr., Terence Crawford, Vasiliy Lomachenko, Seniesa Estrada, and Sunny Edwards.
