How to unlock Middleweight Alex Pereira (UFC 281 Skin) in UFC 6
To get started, head over to Hall of Legends mode. There are three legendary fighters on display and one of them is Alex Pereira. So start your tour and walk into the Hall of Fame. In the white hall you will find a big screen showing the fight between Pereira and Adesanya.
Start the fight with the stand next to the screen. You have two main goals in combat:
-
Stay standing and land Hooks.
-
Finish by TKO or KO.
The first part is quite easy. Hold L1 / LB and press one of the punch buttons (triangle or circle on PlayStation and Y or B on Xbox). This will allow you to throw hooks at Adesanya. you have to land 10 successful hooks to complete this part.
Now you have to finish the fight by knocking out Adesanyawhich will be easier to reach if you keep landing punches on his head.
You can always change the difficulty if the fight is too difficult, so experiment with the difficulty setting in the global settings found in: Settings > Gameplay > Difficulty.
How to unlock light heavyweight Alex Pereira in UFC 6
Alex Pereira has three Light Heavyweight versions that can be unlocked: UFC 320, UFC 307, UFC 295. UFC 320 is the easiest to unlock and is the main cover of UFC 6. Regardless, we'll show you how to unlock them all:
Alex Pereira UFC 320 Skin
To get the UFC 320 version of Alex Pereira, go to the Shop tab in the main menu. Open the Fight Store and you'll find Alex Pereira as the first option on the grid. This skin is completely free and will not require any in-game currency. This purchase unlocks the Pereira Light Heavyweight version.
Alex Pereira UFC 307 Skin
Both the UFC 307 and UFC 295 skins for Pereira are part of his Hall of Legends tour. So we will pick up where we left off after the fight with Adesanya.
After defeating Adesanya, you will return to the White Hall. Next to the big screen is a sign that points to State Hall Flow. Another fight awaits there. Head to the next hall and interact with the big screen to face off against Khalil Rountree Jr. The objectives of this fight are different:
-
Open cut to Rountree
-
Bring 10 clean body wounds
-
Finish by TKO or KO
Elbow attacks are great for opening a cut on the opponent's face. You can carry the elbow through hold R2 / RT and press Triangle / Y or Square / X. Don't open the cut with your first stroke. You need to continue landing elbows to open up the cut.
Then focus on body kicks to get x10 clean body shots. You can perform body shots by pressing Circle / X on PlayStation or B /A on Xbox. You need clean kicks though. This means it should land as a hit without the opponent defending against it.
The last part is to knock out Rountree. Similar to the fight against Adesanya, you can focus on hitting Rountree's head. Since you've already opened the cut, it's now easier to stun and knock him out.
Alex Pereira UFC 295 Skin
The last fight in the Hall of Legends will net you Alex Pereira's oldest light heavyweight skin. Move from the Flow State lobby to the Temple of Warriors. Get past the giant statue and as you enter the next area another statue will rise from the ground with a screen in front.
This time you need to win against Jiří Procházek under the following conditions:
-
Cause a health event to an opponent's legs
-
Finish by TKO or KO
Unlike the fight against Rountree where you needed to aim for the head, in this fight you should aim for the leg by holding L2 / LT and pressing X or Circle on PlayStation or A or B on Xbox.
You must hit Jiri's legs often enough to force his maximum leg health to drop, which will trigger the Leg Health event to complete the objective.
The second part of the objective is similar to the previous fights. It is highly recommended to keep dealing damage to the Walk's legs as it will keep knocking him down. Each knockdown is a chance for you to deal even more damage to your opponent. You can also try targeting the opponent's head when they try to get up. Fighters are usually at a massive disadvantage when trying to stand up, especially after being stunned.
In addition to Alex Pereira, Hall of Legends also offers tours by Max Holloway and Weili Zhang. Similar to Pereira, each of these fighters has three additional skins that you can unlock by completing the required objectives.
