EA Games recently released one of the most interesting game download experiments on PSN. During yesterday’s PSN update, EA Games added Fight Night: Champion Customizable for a low price of $4.99.

Wait? Didn’t Fight Night: Champion just come out? How could it be 5 bucks already? Is it DLC?

Basically, players who purchase Fight Night: Champion Customizable will get the game’s Champion mode. Champion Mode is the very first story-based campaign mode featured in a combat sport game. According to EA Games,

 “Inspired by classic boxing movies, Champion Mode allows players to step into the shoes of Andre Bishop, an up-and-coming middleweight contender who learns that the road to becoming a champion in professional boxing is one that is filled with unimaginable highs and brutal lows. Champion Mode tells a story of redemption and perseverance in one of the toughest sports ever imagined.” 

Keep in mind when purchasing Fight Night: Champion Customizable that it does not include the Fight Now, Legacy, and Online Play Modes. However, players who find that they liked Champion mode can customize their game experience by going into the in-game store and purchasing the other modes for a certain price.

EA Games says that it’s all about giving players a choice. Some players only prefer to try out the campaign and not even try the online mode. So the company decided to offer the game purchasable a la carte. Players need only purchase game modes that they will play.

A bold downloadable game experiment by EA Games. Will it pay off? Let’s tune in to find out.
