  • Melee combat with weapons or fists
  • Action-packed real-time combat
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A absurdly violent VR gladiator game built on physics-driven melee combat, where you dismember goofy opponents with a wide range of weapons. Slapstick gore and silliness take priority over depth.

Gekido: Kintaro's Revenge

Melee combat with weapons or fists

You fight your way through an action-packed brawler that draws on the Mortal Kombat universe. The story revolves around the loss of a beloved character and a quest for revenge.

Tiny Barbarian DX

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast 2D sword-slashing platformer inspired by classic pulp fantasy, where you hack and leap through episodic stages as a small but mighty barbarian in retro pixel-art style.

Gorn 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

You swing physics-driven weapons in VR and hack your way through heavenly arenas in absurdly over-the-top gladiator style. The fights against the five sons of the God of the Afterlife are brutal, chaotic and gleefully silly.

Slash Quest!

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A humorous action adventure where you play a clumsy knight wielding an oversized sword with deliberately unfamiliar controls. Mastering the awkward controls is part of the fun and the story.

Zeno Clash

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A surreal first-person brawler set in the bizarre punk-fantasy world of Zenozoik, where outcast Ghat fights mostly with fists rather than guns. A short, uncompromisingly weird journey with a truly unique look.

Touhou Suimusou: Immaterial and Missing Power

Fantasy setting

In this Touhou spin-off you battle other characters from the franchise in fast arena duels that mix bullet-hell danmaku barrages with close-range attacks. It brings the series' bullet-hell flair into direct, fighting-game style action.

Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast arena hack-and-slash where you cut through waves of demons with katana slashes and hand-to-hand moves. You wound enemies first, then sheathe your sword for a stylish finishing blow.

One Finger Death Punch

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A lightning-fast kung-fu brawler played with just two buttons: you click left or right to hit enemies at exactly the right moment. The result is fluid, movie-like fight choreography that feels like a rhythm and reflex test.

The Legend of Korra

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A compact beat 'em up set in the Avatar universe where Korra switches between water, earth, fire and air mid-fight. Combat revolves around the distinct bending styles, with pro-bending arena matches and endless-runner sections as extras.
