- Dead or Alive 6. 3.5. $59.99 at Humble Bundle. See It. Dead or Alive 6, much like its immediate predecessor, is one part fighting game, one part fashion show, and one part schlocky action movie.
- Divekick. 3.5. $4.99 at Humble Bundle. See It. Iron Galaxy Studios' Divekick is the most hipster fighting game ever created. It's the product of the indie scene that mercilessly parodies fighting games and their die-hard community, yet demands that you be part of the underground circle to fully get all of the references and in-jokes.
- Dragon Ball FighterZ. 4.0. $59.99 at Humble Bundle. See It. Beside Fist of the Northstar and Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure, there are few anime properties that are as intrinsically suited to the fighting-game treatment as the Dragon Ball series.
- Garou: Mark of the Wolves. 4.5. $7.99 at Humble Bundle. See It. Upon its 1999 release, Garou: Mark of the Wolves—a surprisingly deep and visually stunning entry in the long-running Fatal Fury series—was hailed as SNK's wondrous response to Capcom's Street Fighter III.

Mortal Kombat 9 marked a turning point in the history of MK. It was a reboot – not just of its story, but of everything that defined Mortal Kombat over the years. Puzzle Kombat, Motor Kombat, and weird Create-a-Fatalities were all gone in lieu of a back-to-basics approach that focused on the actual kombat above all else. It turned out to be the bes...
Even just a passing glance at Skullgirls in motion will tell you that this isn’t your average indie fighting game. But there’s more to Skullgirls than just its looks. Skullgirls has one of the most flexible fighting game systems ever made. Every character has a ton of different combo routes, and you can play as a solo character with increased healt...
Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown was the final arcade and console iteration of Sega’s premier 3D fighter, until Ultimate Showdown rebuilt the game on Yakuza’s Dragon Engine for modern consoles. Often credited with greatly influencing or even creating the 3D fighter genre, Virtua Fighter is foundational to video games. The likes of Yu Suzuki (creator...
2013’s Killer Instinct proved the series was more than the Mortal Kombat imitator some claimed it to be. It was one of the first mainstream fighting games to integrate rollback netcode and its online play is still among the smoothest around. Its Dojo mode is the best teaching tool the genre has ever seen - it doesn’t just teach you how to play Kill...
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 is set apart by its character balance (or lack thereof) and team construction. Many of the characters are broken in a way that only Marvel can get away with, and being able to put three of these characters together, each with one of three assist options, in varying orders, creates a sandbox of possibilities. You can be i...
The King of Fighters series has a number of great entries, with many choosing 98 and 2002 as their favorites, and XV receiving a lot of love as the newest entry. However, for our money, it's KOF XIII that remains one of the best fighting games of all time. The super detailed pixel art, pace of play, and Hyper Drive combo system all helped KOF have ...
Not only is Dragon Ball FighterZ finally a good Dragon Ball game and anime game, it’s an amazing fighting game in its own right. The first thing you’ll notice is the presentation: It is absolutely stunning to look at, and the sounds of haymakers, super dashes, and energy beams give the action the punch it really needs. You can freeze nearly any fra...
Tekken has always been known as one of the most difficult fighting game franchises. Its 3D movement adds layers of complexity, there are over 50 characters each with well over 100 moves apiece, and the simple act of moving backwards properly requires practice. Its depth and complexity make it every bit as demanding as it is rewarding, and those who...
The Guilty Gear series has been pumping out excellent fighting games for more than two decades, but Guilty Gear Strive is where Arc System Works’ flagship title finally found mainstream success, and for good reason. Strive sports the best rollback netcode in the business, something that was largely unheard of in a mainstream fighter even a few year...
Picking a single game to represent the most storied fighting game franchise was a tough ask. After all, Street Fighter II popularized the genre when it hit arcades in 1991; and Street Fighter IV resurrected it when it hit home consoles in 2009. But Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike is something special. It gave us Evo Moment 37, the Daigo parry, and i...
