Martial Champion

Developer: Konami

Martial Champion is a brash, 1v1 arcade fighting game that channels early '90s sprite-based brawls with large characters, exaggerated moves, and stage hazards. Players pick a roster of international fighters, string combos, and chase cinematic special moves through fast-paced rounds that reward timing and positioning. The PC Engine CD version preserves the arcade feel with faithful animations and punchy sound, making it a nostalgia trip for fans of classic fighters. Expect stiff CPU opponents, tight two-player matches, and a learning curve that rewards practice—perfect for collectors and arcade devotees craving simple, competitive action.
