Manual
Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a boxing simulation game where players can experience the career of Ivan Drago or other iconic characters. Players progress through a ranking system by winning fights in various Soviet-themed locations, ultimately aiming for the top.
Story
Ivan Drago
Ivan Drago's storyline follows him from a raw recruit at a special military training camp to the high-tech facility that becomes his home. His trainers build him into the ultimate fighting machine.
His fight locations use old-style Soviet iconography and often have a military feel. Fights are set on the deck of a warship at sea, in a tank factory, and similar locations.
His second-to-last fight against Apollo in Vegas results in Apollo's death. This leads to the final grudge match against Rocky in Moscow from Rocky IV.

Career Mode
In Career mode, you can choose to play as Rocky, Apollo, Clubber, or Drago.
On completing the first fight, you will see a ranking chart with you at the bottom, in 25th place. From there, you can opt to fight either the 24th-, 23rd-, or 22nd-ranked boxer.
You can move up through the ranks at a maximum of three positions per fight. For example, if you are ranked 23rd and defeat the boxer ranked 21st, you move up to 21st and your opponent moves down a rank to 22nd. If you lose, you stay at 23rd.
Once you enter the top 10, you can only challenge boxers up to two positions ahead of you on the chart. This means you can move up a maximum of two positions per fight. If you lose a bout, you'll either

Career Mode
When choosing whom to challenge, your decision will also be influenced by the number of months until the fight, which is displayed on the ranking chart for each available opponent. This will typically be between one and three months, and it determines the number of training games in which you can take part before your scheduled fight. You must judge if you have enough time to train and get your physical stats where they need to be before tackling your opponent.
Exhibition Match
In Exhibition mode, you can pit any of the characters you have unlocked against one another.
Knockout Tournament
The Knockout Tournament mode generates a random series of fights that you must win to take the World Championship heavyweight belt. There are three levels to complete.
Training
The training games were a popular feature of the first game, and we have expanded them to allow you to train as each of the four main characters. Each character has his own gym, his own team, and a unique training game.
The core games are sit-ups, punch mitts, skipping, heavy bag, and speed bag. Additional training games include chin-ups for Clubber, a squat push machine for Drago, and a special version of sparring for Apollo. As Rocky, you can unlock the ability to "chase the chicken." See the Training section for more information.
Practice Mode
Practice mode allows you to practice against other fighters with no time limits and no winners or losers. It's your chance to polish your skills and try out those combos before you have to use them for real. A help system guides you to the special moves for each player.
Options
This is where you can configure many of the game options.
Shop
In the shop, you can spend all the credits you win while playing. Use them to unlock new fighters, new arenas, and specific bonuses such as movie trailers.
Extras
In the Extras section, you can view boxer bios, venue descriptions, and unlocked Rocky movie trailers; listen to unlocked boxer introduction tunes; view records and replays; and see the game credits.
Survival Mode
Survival mode (once unlocked) allows you to fight in an infinite timed bout against an unlocked random opponent in a random arena, using normal game rules. The aim is to knock down as many opponents as possible, one after another, and achieve a high score. Get knocked down once and you're out.
Options Menu
This menu allows you to adjust game options and to save and load game configuration data.

Enemies & Characters
Rocky Balboa
Rocky Balboa's storyline follows him from his early years as a young street fighter through to his joining Mickey's gym and working his way to the top of his profession via a lucky match with the heavyweight champion of the world - Apollo Creed. Once at the top, can he continue his dominance of the heavyweight division?
Apollo Creed
We first see Apollo Creed as an amateur champion fighting against Tony, whom he then invites to become his trainer as he turns pro. After a series of fights staged at locations such as Times Square and Las Vegas, his story finishes at the climax of the first Rocky movie with his defeat of Rocky.
Clubber Lang
Clubber Lang comes from the wrong side of the tracks. His story starts at a low point in his life with him incarcerated. His success in the ring provides him with a way out and into the big time. He stages a fight at the art museum steps to provoke Rocky into a match, and his story climaxes with the showdown against Rocky in New York from Rocky III.
