Knockout Kings 2001 is the next part of the series devoted to boxing from the Electronic Arts catalogue. For the first time it was released not only on the previous generation of Sony consoles, but also on PlayStation 2. As a result, we have seen many significant changes compared to last year's edition. In addition to the audio-visual layer, the available play modes have been enriched and the pool of players (and players!) has been increased.

Among a number of options for a single player, the main challenge is Career. At first, we create our own boxer from scratch, deciding on its appearance, name and color of shorts, and then we set off to conquer the world's most famous halls, headed by Madison Square Garden. Before this happens, however, we have to fight a number of duels with more and more experienced rivals. During the breaks between meetings we go to the training room, where under the watchful eye of the trainer we develop skills by pressing the buttons on the pad in the appropriate order.

In addition to Career, there is also a standard arcade mode, in which we compete with other opponents until the first defeat. In your free time you can play a quick duel or use the Fantasy Fights option which allows you to take part in the clash of two legendary players, such as Ali from Marciano.

The biggest changes, however, took place in the visual setting. Due to the much greater computing power of PlayStation 2, developers have increased the detail of their character models and improved their animation. Much better look also faithfully reproduced halls with a spontaneously reacting audience. During the duels we listen to commentators from the ESPN television station.
