Survios, the most successful and fastest growing VR gaming studio in the industry, along with Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM), today announced that its top-ranking boxing title, CREED: Rise to Glory™, has moved into a new “weight class,” selling more than 1 million units across all platforms. To celebrate its top-seller status, Survios has unveiled a new fitness trailer that demonstrates its hardcore, adrenaline-rushing boxing features, and announced a limited time sale on the popular title for Oculus Quest owners.
CREED: Rise to Glory rounds up the most iconic figures from MGM’s Creed and Rocky cinematic universe including Adonis Creed, Rocky Balboa, and other Creed & Rocky movie legends. Donning the gloves of underdog Adonis Creed, players are challenged to rise through the ranks to become the ultimate champion. Build skills and stamina by training with the legendary Rocky Balboa and face off against combat-ready opponents in the championship ring. Various modes are available including Career, Endurance, Free Play, and Online PVP. Both fitness and boxing enthusiasts alike are challenged to test their pugilist skills, go round for round with these fighting legends, and prove they have the heart of a champion.

“When we first brought ‘Creed’ to life in VR, we knew players would become immersed in the character’s passion, determination and fighting spirit,” said Seth Gerson, CEO, Survios. “Since releasing the game, players stepping into the virtual ring have thrown more than 500 million punches, burned more than 1 billion calories and boxed in over 50 million rounds on the road to 1 million games sold.”
CREED: Rise to Glory is available on Oculus Quest, PSVR and on additional supported VR headsets via Steam. For a limited time only, Oculus Quest owners can purchase CREED: Rise to Glory at a discounted price of $17.99 through October 17. For more information, visit survios.com/creed.
Following the game’s global success, Survios released its follow-up, non-VR counterpart, Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions™, available now on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam.
As the company’s first game developed specifically for console and PC platforms, Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions takes the game franchise in a new direction – expanding its audience base while demonstrating the company’s multi-platform development expertise. It also advances Survios’ vision to become the premier “cross-reality” gaming studio, enabling people to play their favorite games with others regardless of platform or preferred reality, and establishes a roadmap for the future of Survios — culminating in the creation of the metaverse.
“Whether we’re developing for VR, traditional consoles, physical installations with AR/VR overlays or a hybrid that combines the best of each, our mission is to design fully immersive, dynamic worlds that can be discovered in every reality where gamers exist,” continued Gerson. “Developing for cross-reality is just the beginning. We’re exploring every opportunity to captivate the broadest possible gaming audience while pushing the envelope to create the next generation of immersive technologies and interactive consumer experiences.”
The Rocky and Creed franchise has remained a global phenomenon because it presents moviegoers with universally relatable themes—ambition, passion, determination and giving it your all to be a champion, even when the odds are against you. MGM’s Rocky and Creed films have generated more than $1.3 billion in worldwide box-office sales, three Academy Awards, and 10 nominations. In addition, the Rocky franchise kicks off its 45th anniversary later this year, while the highly anticipated third installment of Creed arrives in theaters in 2022.
