Fighting games in video game history
The fighting game pits two opponents in a duel of precision, timing and reading your rival. Born in arcades, it exploded in 1991 with Street Fighter II, which established combos and special moves and launched a competitive culture still thriving today. The move to 3D, with Virtua Fighter, then opened a second great school.
Its masters are famous: Street Fighter II triggered the phenomenon, Virtua Fighter 2 founded 3D fighting, Tekken 3 took it to a peak and Guilty Gear embodies the technical, frenetic 'anime' school. Mortal Kombat, Soulcalibur and The King of Fighters complete a genre beloved by esports.
For collectors, fighting holds fine pieces: Neo Geo versions and Japanese imports, often low-print, reach high values, especially complete. On RomWize, every fighting game is retested and re-rated for 2026, with its rarity index and collector value (loose, complete and new) by region; the 'by console' section above helps you find the best, machine by machine.
