The development team at EA Sports working on the new UFC video game is ready to deliver the first fighter image taken from the coming title, which shows Benson Henderson.

This is the first official image linked to the franchise since Electronic Arts has officially confirmed that it was working on the simulation title.

The Twitter message that accompanies the image states, “First look at @BensonHenderson in @EASPORTSUFC. #FeeltheFight.”

The new Ultimate Fighting Championship video game experience will be powered by the new Ignite engine, which EA Sports has designed to take advantage of the features of the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

The company wants to launch the first UFC title in the fall of this year and more information about actual gameplay mechanics will be offered at E3 2013.
