UFC 4: How to Do All Clinch Submissions | Game Rant
For EA Sports UFC 4, developer EA Sports has made changes to a number of the systems that were established in previous entries in the series. One such system that has been tweaked is submissions, and indeed some veterans of the franchise may be slightly confused about how these moves work in UFC 4. It is with those players in mind that this guide is being written, and it looks to help fans execute the various submissions that can be performed out of a clinch.
For full clarity, to do a clinch in UFC 4 a player must simply hold RB and press X on Xbox One or hold R1 and press Square on PS4. If a fan enters these inputs correctly, they will see their fighter initiate a single collar clinch, and indeed this is the starting point for the submissions detailed here. With that established, this is how players that are looking to submit their opponents out of a clinch should proceed:
- Standing Guillotine: After initiating a clinch from an orthodox stance, players should throw a knee (A or B on Xbox One and X or Circle on PS4) to move into a tight clinch. Now UFC 4 fans should hold LT + RB and press X (Xbox One) or hold L2 + R1 and press Square (PS4) to transition to a choke, and any punch button can be used to start the submission from this position.
- Flying Armbar: This is a fairly straightforward submission to execute, as players simply need to start a clinch, then hold LT/L2 + RB/R1, and then press either of the punch buttons in this new MMA fighting game.
- Rear Naked Choke: To do this submission a fan must first initiate a clinch and then press their opponent against the cage. At this point, if a player's UFC 4 fighter is on the left side then they should press up on the left joystick, while they should press down if they are on the right. Now the player just needs to hold LT/L2 + RB/R1 and press a punch button, and they should then press a punch button again when they are in the Back Pack position.
To note, not every fighter can perform these submissions, and fans are thus advised to verify the specific moves that are available to their preferred fighters before they spend too much time on them. Fortunately, if a player discovers that their fighter cannot execute these submission, there are some other offensive options that can be done out of a clinch, such as takedowns in UFC 4, which are perfectly reasonable alternatives.
EA Sports UFC 4 is available now for PS4 and Xbox One.
