Find out more about beating your friends to within an inch of their lives on your Dreamcast

Though confirmed in various trade publications and on several gaming sites across the web, Crave entertainment decided to divulge a few additional details on the recently acquired Ultimate Fighting Championship licence, which they've snagged exclusively for a whopping five years.

"This exclusive licence covers all game systems and allows us to push the envelope and actually form a new brand of fighting games," stated Holly Newman, Executive Vice President of Publishing. "This full-contact, mixed martial arts sport has proved to be eminently successful throughout the world. It has a huge fan base and now we can deliver the intense fighting of the UFC to gamers."

Crave plan to bring the UFC-based titles to several platforms, starting with PlayStation and Dreamcast versions, in the fourth quarter of the year 2000. Details are still sparse at this point, but we hear you can expect the same brand of over-the-top intensity and violence that has made the Ultimate Fighting Championship famous to make its way to the digital experience.

We'll be back with more details as soon as they become available, though with a release slated this far in the future, don't expect too much any time soon.
