Knockout League - Arcade VR Boxing

IF YOU LIKE VR BOXING THEN GET THIS GAME! ITS DEEP!!! Don't be fooled by the cartoon graphics, this is a serious boxing training sim. It is hard. While Thrill of the Fight is a boxing sim, Knockout League is (to me) a boxing training sim. Note: I write this as someone who can't get past the second boxer in the fight section of the game hahah. I have spent many many hours on Thrill of The Fight and its presence means that all other fighting games should be compared to it. Knockout League stands up incredibly well - there is no crossover and this is a very different experience, the two games compliment each other very well, as TotF's training aspect is not nearly as developed as KL's. OK - the fighting is a little odd, compared to TotF - in Knockout League, fights are more about timing, defending, slipping and rolling, and watching and learning your opponent's behaviour (all somewhat legit things to learn BTW). But don't get this game for the fighting, get it for the training aspect - the drills (pad work) alone were worth the price of admission as I don't have any other game that offers this. BTW if you struggle here with double hits just try to increase your accuracy as you strike the pads. The reflex training is deep and hard work even on normal mode. Heavy bag brings a new level of stamina - set it to hard and keep up for as long as you can. This game feels like it was created by someone who loves training and genuinely wants to teach boxing skills, as opposed to simulating an actual boxing match in VR. If that (and increasing your fitness) interests you, this game should be in your library.
