Supremacy MMA is billed as the MMA game for people who aren't MMA fans. It doesn't have any license like Strikeforce or UFC, and this means it has no limits on violence, simple arcade-style controls, and a stylized art and music style. All of this seeks to appeal to random Joe Gamer's thirst for violence and adrenaline. The problem is that random Joe Gamer isn't very interested in MMA games. So the resulting dumbed-down half-wrestle-fest of a game ends up appealing to pretty much no one.
Supremacy MMA brings the brutality of unsanctioned and unlicensed MMA fighting to the bigtime, favoring fast-and-furious gameplay and underground aesthetics over official branding and television-style presentation.
If you’re a PS Vita owner with a thirst for hand-to-hand combat, Supremacy MMA Unrestricted is a very capable portable mixed martial arts title. It’s a bit flat and at times annoying in places, but if you mute the music and ignore the fact that you can’t create your own fighter, you may very well melt away a few hours.
Supremacy MMA’s unresponsive controls and stiff fighting engine go portable, introducing new problems and taking
away the one thing that made the original bearable: presentation. New fighters and a touch-based control mode don’t
make up the difference.
