Streets of Rage Remake

Challenging difficulty

A huge fan-made remake that combines all three Streets of Rage games into one classic side-scrolling brawler. It offers gang-busting combat, a large roster of fighters, local co-op, and the series' driving electronic soundtrack.

Streets of Rage

Action-packed real-time combat

A classic Sega side-scrolling brawler where you punch and kick your way through a crime-ridden city to a legendary electronic soundtrack, with optional two-player co-op.

Street Fighter

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Capcom's original Street Fighter laid the groundwork for the genre with one-on-one duels against opponents from around the world, attack buttons and early command-input special moves. It is clunky and punishing, but historically important.

Little Fighter 2

Linear, curated structure

A free Hong Kong brawler mixing beat 'em up and versus fighting, letting up to four players share one PC to fight each other or team up against computer opponents. Its appeal is the varied roster and chaotic fun with friends.

Fatal Fury

Challenging difficulty

A classic 1991 SNK fighting game following Terry Bogard's fight against crime lord Geese Howard. Its standout feature is the two-plane system that lets fighters shift between foreground and background lanes.

Ikari Warriors

Challenging difficulty

A classic vertically scrolling arcade shooter where you fight alone or with a friend through jungles, rivers and ruins. Machine guns, grenades and rocket launchers drive fast, punishing action.

Joust

Challenging difficulty

A 1982 arcade classic where you flap your way around as a knight on a flying ostrich, knocking rival buzzard riders out of the sky by striking from above. Simple but tricky flight mechanics make it a tense score-chaser, solo or with a friend.

Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A collection of short speedrun challenges drawn from 13 classic NES games, played for best times and scores online or on the couch. Precision and reflexes are key, and the leaderboards drive the competitive fun.

Urban Reign

Challenging difficulty

A Namco 3D street brawler in the tradition of Double Dragon and Final Fight, where you fight through gangs with combos, weapons and co-op play.
