Critical Sports and Entertainment has officially partnered with Soar, a real-time 3D simulcasting platform powered by volumetric video and AI, to deploy next-generation immersive broadcast technology across both Critical Combat and the United Combat League.
This partnership allows us to integrate real-time 3D simulcasting into our flagship amateur MMA promotion, Critical Combat, as well as the United Combat League, our professional team-based MMA league launching in Late 2026.
Combat sports are uniquely suited for immersive viewing and performance analysis. Through Soar’s technology, fans will be able to experience fights from fully interactive perspectives, while athletes, coaches, and analysts gain access to powerful real-time tools to better understand performance, positioning, and strategy.
At Critical, we are focused on building modern combat sports platforms designed for the future — combining structured competition, city-based identity, and next-generation media infrastructure.
This partnership represents a foundational step in delivering the next generation of combat sports experiences for athletes, fans, and partners.
