*Drumroll please*

Full DLC – US$ 9.99, or you can get its smaller components:

  • Evander Holyfield, Sonny Liston and Bernard Hopkins – US$ 1.99 for character pack
  • Ring Rivalry game mode (allows players to choose from over 20 different match options recreating boxing’s most famous matchups)  – US$ 1.99
  • Old School Rules game mode (simulates the common rules of boxing prior to the establishment of the Marquis of Queensbury Rules) – US$ 3.99

There must be some glitch in the matrix here, with the full DLC bundle being pricier than its three packs put together. Hopefully, they’ll get that fixed once the DLC launches.
