About the Game

Build Your Boxing Career From Nothing

Start as a broke nobody and fight your way toward becoming World Champion in Rising Spirit, a gritty first-person boxing life sim set in a small open world.

Train your body, earn money, manage hunger and muscle fatigue, prepare for weekly fights, and survive a career where every punch, payday, and bad decision can shape your future.

Live the Life Outside the Ring

Champions are not built only during fights. Between matches, explore the city, visit the gym, buy clothes, get a haircut, eat, rest, take part-time delivery work, and spend your money carefully as you climb from the bottom of the boxing world.

  • Explore a small open world - Move through the city to find gyms, shops, food, quests, NPCs, and the next step in your career.

  • Work to survive - Take delivery jobs when you need cash for food, training, upgrades, clothes, or fight entry fees.

  • Manage your condition - Hunger and muscle fatigue matter. Eat, sleep, and recover, or risk collapsing and losing more than just time.

Train Your Own Way

Choose how you build your fighter. Improve strength, agility, and endurance through different training activities, then bring that progress into the ring.

  • Road work - Sprint through the city and build endurance outside the gym.

  • Gym training - Use the treadmill, punching bags, bench press, push-ups, and pad work to sharpen your fighter.

  • Balance effort and recovery - Push too hard and muscle fatigue can punish you before fight day even begins.

Fight in First Person

Step into the ring with a first-person boxing system built around timing, stamina, defense, and style. Throw jabs, straights, and hooks, protect yourself with your guard, dodge attacks, parry at the right moment, and look for the opening that can change the fight.

  • Choose your boxing style - Different styles bring different animation sets, identities, and signature move potential.

  • Control your stamina - Wild punches can leave you open. Smart fighters know when to attack, defend, and breathe.

  • Survive dangerous fights - Knockdowns, referee decisions, temporary blindness, nausea, and lasting damage can all become part of your story.

Climb the Rankings

Begin in the Bronze Glove league and rise through a career built on weekly fights, rival boxers, quests, and hard-earned progress. Every opponent has their own style, decisions, and personality in the ring.

Win fights, earn money, improve your life, and keep moving toward the only goal that matters: becoming

World Champion.
