On May 14, 2009, a demo of the game was made available to those that had pre-ordered the game from GameStop, although it was made available for everyone to download later that month via Xbox Live or PlayStation Network. The demo features a three-round exhibition match between Ricky Hatton and Manny Pacquiao in the wake of their fight on May 2, 2009. A tutorial mode is also accessible at the beginning of the demo, which is featured in the final release.

On August 27, 2009, a new updated demo was released. It now features a ten-round exhibition match between Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson, in addition to the previous Hatton vs. Pacquiao match. It also features the return of the classic control scheme for the game where players can use the controller buttons for most controls instead of the right analog stick. This control scheme was originally in all previous Fight Night games, and it was brought into Fight Night Round 4 after fans were complaining about using the new control scheme and sufferings form clusters.[6]

First the USA market got the same BMW M3 as the European market. E46 bmw m3. While this engine produced a healthy 240 hp, it lagged behind the 300 plus hp engine the Europeans got.

Additional trunks, gloves and shorts were released along with face button control support in a free update at the end of August.[7]

GameSpy's Will Tuttle noted the game's 'stunning visuals', and praised the online gameplay.[17]GamePro's Andrew Hayward thought that the gameplay flowed better as a result of the frame rate, which ran at sixty frames per second.[14]IGN's Nate Ahearn felt that the game delivered 'the best pure boxing ever seen in a video game.'[22] Destructoid said 'It doesn’t matter if you care about boxing; this superb game is worth a look from everybody; the game itself is a blast to play, and that’s what stands out.' Eurogamer described it as 'An intense, heart-rattling experience that gets more rewarding the more time you invest in learning the nuances.
