Lesnar added to UFC 4 roster

Brock Lesnar is returning to the UFC - virtually, at least.

EA Sports announced Thursday the addition of the former UFC heavyweight champion as a playable fighter in UFC 4. It's his first appearance in the video game franchise since 2014.

Jennifer Maia and Askar Askarov have also been added to the UFC 4 roster.

Lesnar is currently a free agent after his contract with WWE expired in August. There has been speculation he could return to the Octagon, though UFC president Dana White doesn't see that happening.
