Cage Empire: MMA Manager

Take over a fledgling MMA promotion and build it into a global empire. Sign the fighters, make the matches, and live with every decision from the purse you offer a rising star to the game plan their corner screams in the fifth round.

Cage Empire is a deep management simulation for fight fans. You are the promoter: scout and sign talent, negotiate contracts clause by clause, book cards that sell tickets, and send your fighters into a round-by-round fight engine where styles, conditioning, and cornering actually decide the night. Grow from a smoky local club show into a marquee brand with champions, sponsors, and rivals gunning for your talent.Build Your Promotion
Found your promotion in one of six regions, the bright lights and high costs of Las Vegas, the grappling heartland of Rio, the wrestling factory of Dagestan, and more... each with its own talent pool, crowds, and economy.

Upgrade your venue, gym, and medical center, and install facilities that pay off over a career.

Watch every dollar: a weekly financial ledger breaks down your income and spending, tracks the trend, and warns you before the bills bury you.
Sign and Develop Fighters
Every fighter is built from real attributes (striking, power, grappling, chin, cardio, fight IQ) plus a martial-arts base, a personality, hidden traits, and a ceiling they may or may not reach.

Run training camps ahead of booked fights: set the focus or let the corner call it, and sweat the camp injuries and short-notice replacements.

Scout the regional talent pool for prospects before your rivals find them.
Make the Matches
Book fight cards across weight classes for men and women, put belts on the line, and work a divisional ranking system every fighter has to climb — no shortcuts for a big name.

Run old-school one-night tournaments where fighters go multiple times and damage carries over.

Stoke rivalries and money fights that pack the house.
Watch Them Fight
A round-by-round simulation resolves every bout on styles, game plans, conditioning, and heart.. not a coin flip.

A skilled corner reads the round and changes the plan between rounds… if the fighter is the type to listen. A good cutman keeps a cut fighter in the fight.

Cuts, injuries, doctor stoppages, missed weight, and play-by-play commentary that reads the momentum and the stakes.
Run the Business
Negotiate contracts as a real trade space... show money, win bonuses, signing bonuses, title-shot promises, champion's clauses, PPV points in live, back-and-forth talks.

Land company sponsorships and broker brand endorsements for your fighters that lift morale and make them harder to poach.

Fend off AI-run rival promotions that sign, poach, and build their own stars while you sleep.
Build a Legacy
Crown champions, chase undefeated runs, and induct the greats into your Hall of Fame with a proper ceremony.

Review each year as fighters rise, peak, age, and retire and turn a no-name prospect into a box-office star.
How far can you take it? Sign the talent, make the fights, and build your Cage Empire.
