Ahead of UFC 257 this weekend, UFC legend Conor McGregor is also returning to the latest UFC game with a classic look. You'll even be able to get it for free.

　　EA Sports has announced that it is adding a new version of McGregor to UFC 4 that shows the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion as he looked back in 2014 when he first squared off against Dustin Poirier.

　　The big thing you'll immediately notice is that McGregor's braided ponytail is back, while he's wearing his white vale tudo shorts just like he did in 2014.

　　There is new McGregor-themed gear to earn as well in the form of t-shirts and shorts that display some of the fighter's famous lines such as "The king is back" and "I'd like to apologize to absolutely nobody."

　　EA is also bringing a brand-new playable character to UFC 4. Lightweight Jiri Prochazka, who has a 27-3-1 record, is now playable in the game ahead of his February 27 fight with Dominick Reyes. On top of that, Andre Bishop and Isaac Frost from the Fight Night games are back in UFC 4 and available to use as playable fighters right now.
