Fighting games finally saw growth in recent years, despite being a genre left in the dark ages for so long.

Fighting games are one of the most iconic gaming genres out there. From the arcades and cabinet-to-cabinet bouts with Street Fighter 2 to home consoles featuring online netplay across the country with Street Fighter 5, these titles and more like them have become engrained in gaming culture.

While those titles have been basking in a great light for years, fighting games were stuck in sepia tone well into the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One generation. While some titles offered lots of extra content with character, costume, and stage DLC, many of the biggest fighting games were still stuck in the past in many areas. We still saw lackluster tutorial modes that barely teach new players how to put together a good combo, let alone how and when to use a fireball.

The definition perfectly describes why a reaction-perfect and execution-heavy genre like fighting games needed to evolve past it. Grow up Enter 2020 and 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a stay-home mandate and social distancing kept players from gathering at tournaments offline. Hyped-up games like Granblue Versus were released into an early grave and games like Dragon Ball FighterZ and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 were only being kept competitively alive due to players finding new ways to play through Google and Amazon Cloud servers.
