Combos, timing and duels: the fighting game is an art of mastery, from 2D versus to 3D arenas. RomWize re-ranks the best games in the genre by its re-evaluated scores, each with its current score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"An essential collection for 2D fighting fans. Seven titles including the Marvel vs. Capcom games, with rollback netcode that finally does them justice. Filters, gallery, and smooth performance throughout. Pure joy revisiting these wild fights online or local."
"Virtua Fighter 4 modernises Sega's 3D saga on PS2. Technical combat, generous solo modes and a delightful quest mode. Drier than Tekken, but rare depth."
"Vibrant Virtual-On where mechs glide and clash at breakneck speed. The twin stick controls are legendary, the arenas are spacious and the dogfight feel is unique. A peak of mecha versus."
"Reload version of Guilty Gear X2 with balancing adjustments and improvements. Same gameplay richness as X2 with slightly adjusted roster. Recommended version for players seeking the best Guilty Gear X2 experience with the most polished balancing."
"Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution refines the entry further. Two new characters, retuned balance and generous content. Likely the absolute series peak on PS2."
"Injustice Ultimate Edition is the complete version with all DLC including Lobo, Batgirl and Scorpion. The definitive way to enjoy NetherRealm's DC Comics fighting game with all available additional content."
"The conversion of Konami's TMNT arcade on NES, European version. Co-op beat'em up with the four turtles. Less than the arcade but genuinely fun. One of the best licensed games on the console."
"Plus version of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core with additional improvements. Story mode content is enriched and some characters receive adjustments. The most complete and accomplished version of the Guilty Gear series on PS2, the preferred choice for a maximal experience."
"Mortal Kombat 11 pairs theatrical gore with a fighting system of surgical precision. The Fatalities stay gleefully obscene, but it's the offensive and defensive meter mechanics that hold serious players. On Switch it runs better than anyone feared."
