Evaluation

World Championship Boxing Manager™ 2 launched on January 17, 2023 as a complete sports management simulation. The only post-launch developer communication on record is a single feature patch (v.0.14.0.0) released on February 24, 2023, which added a KO minigame, quality-of-life improvements, and bug fixes. There have been no developer posts of any kind since February 24, 2023 — over three years ago. No DLC has been released or announced, and the store description contains no language indicating future content, a season pass, or ongoing updates. The game appears to have launched as a finished product and received a single post-launch polish update before development activity ceased.

About this game



The boxing world is at your fingertips in this streamlined and outrageously entertaining sports management simulation. Simpler interfaces and more straightforward decision-making deliver a tighter gameplay loop that keeps up the pace and your boxers in the action.

Enlist competitive fighters, recruit top-notch staff, and ride the hype train all the way to endorsement city! Watch it all play out in the ring as your fighter takes the throne…or gets KO’d.



An official sequel to 1991’s highly-applauded World Championship Boxing Manager™, this iteration captures the essence of the original and expands upon it. Offering updated visuals, deeper gameplay, and new characters that extend the World Championship Boxing Manager™ franchise, WCBM2 provides fun for grizzled veterans and lightweight fans. Go toe to toe with fantasy characters, or take the main stage with historical boxing legends including Rocky Marciano™, Sugar Ray Robinson™, and more!



Define your boxing legacy

Build your fighters from the ground up and lead them to glory. Manage their training schedules, rest days, strength conditioning, and cardio sessions to create the best balance for your roster. Recruit promising amateurs, hire staff, advertise fights, and boost your boxers’ reputations. Keep your stable of fighters in top shape and they'll take you to the top —but mismanage them and you'll both be eating canvas!

All in a day's work for the best boxing manager in the world.

It's more than just the fight

Behind every fighter is a story, and it’s their unique and individual experiences that keep them punching and help them get up, one more time. Put on the gloves of a scrappy newcomer or relive the unforgettable careers of heavyweight legends. World Championship Boxing Manager ™ 2 brings these tales to life with visual novel-like depth of detail in Story Mode.
