The game can be played either as a two-player versus game or single-player against the computer.
under the new title "Pro Boxing Simulator" (to fit with its long-running series). Controversially, this version had the words "New Release" on the cassette cover which led to complaints when people bought the game not realising it was the same as "By Fair Means or Foul". Codemasters then reissued the game with the "New Release" box changed to "Previously known as 'Fair Means or Foul'" and offered to refund anyone who had bought both versions of the game.
