Fight fans can now witness reigning UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor throw down in deep space.
Just one day removed after McGregor revealed his character for the upcoming Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, video game publish Activision has released the trailer for the highly anticipated next chapter of the long running series.
McGregor will co-star alongside Game of Thrones‘ actor Kit Harrington.
“My management rang me and said there was an opportunity to be part of the game. I have played the game for many years,” McGregor told FOX Sports. “I was addicted to it at one stage for a while and I wasn’t training so much as I was playing the game. To get an opportunity to actually take part in the game, I dived at it.”
The release date for the game is being marketed for November 4. This may be a clue as to whether McGregor will be featured on the UFC’s upcoming UFC 205 card in Madison Square Garden on November 12, after the game launches.
In terms of competition, McGregor (20-3) is coming off a majority decision win over Nate Diaz at UFC 202 last month. Following his victory, UFC officials revealed the entire card had earned $7,629,010 at the gate, making it the fifth-largest in company history.
As far as pay-per-view buys, the early estimates ranged from 1.2 million to 1.5 million buys, which would place it in the top three in promotion history, along with UFC 196, which was headlined by the first showdown between McGregor and Diaz.
McGregor also headlined UFC 194, which reached 1.2 million buys. During the card fans saw McGregor dethrone former champion Jose Aldo in just 13 seconds.
While the champion has not revealed who his next opponent will be, he has multitude of fighters calling for the fight, including UFC lightweight champ Eddie Alvarez.
