EA Sports will confirm the full roster of the upcoming UFC 2 video game tomorrow, ahead of the title's expected launch in March this year.
Some of the roster has already been revealed, with former WWE star CM Punk making his debut in this EA Sports title.
Fans of wrestling might also have expected Brock Lesnar to be included, although that is not the case, he has been left out this time around. The "Beast Incarnate" is the only person that has been completely ruled out for inclusion, as his current deal with WWE seemingly prevents the former UFC World Heavyweight champion from being added to this year's game. Lesnar did, of course, feature in UFC 1 as free downloadable content.
The EA SPORTS UFC Twitter account tweeted out the following:
