UFC 5: Best arenas, ranked

The game does a great job of emulating its real-life counterparts, and the arenas are a highlight of that. Even if some of the look similar, its their energy – their vibe – that sets them apart. A handful of arenas stood out to me during my time with UFC 5. If you’re playing, too, here are the arenas I suggest using.

• Scotiabank Arena 

• Etihad Arena

• UFC Apex (Dana White’s Contender Series)

• Toyota Centre

• Kumite

How to change arenas

For one reason, UFC 5 buries some of its most interesting menu options under several layers of menu selections. Arena selection is one of them – it took me forever to find.

To change venues in Online or Offline mode, simply head to the fight. Pick your weight division and the fighter you want. At the very bottom, it’ll show you all the arenas in the game. 

What’s cool is, in UFC 5, you don’t have to unlock arenas. Each arena in UFC 5 is already available to from the get-go. On top of that, there don’t seem to be weight class restrictions, meaning you can feel free to mix and match any weight class and arena.
