Much like sports games, Android fighting games have had an excruciatingly slow start. It took a long time before the first really good fighting games came out and it’s still a genre that’s fairly limited. However, that doesn’t mean that there aren’t some really good titles for you fighting game aficionados out there. Here are the best fighting games for Android.
Blood & Glory and Blood & Glory: Legends
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
First up is a two-fer and it’s Glu’s Blood & Glory franchise. Both games feature gladiator style fighting that uses swipe and slash style mechanics. The graphics are pretty good in both titles the mechanics are easy to learn and understand. These titles are among the highest rated of any fighting game on this list and since they’re both free (with in app purchases), it won’t cost you anything to check them out. If you want the super gory version, you can pick up that version by clicking here. Click the button below to visit Glu’s developer page where you can find all three games.

Fighting Tiger – Liberal
[Price: Free]
Fighting Tiger – Liberal is an older title but it gets the job done. It’s a classic-style 3D fighter game where you pound on opponents as they come after you. It features on-screen controls, simple mechanics, and the graphics aren’t half bad either. Considering that it’s free with no in app purchases, you can’t ask for much more than what the game gives you. That said, it can get repetitive after a while and some game elements are a little bland so beware of that.

Hockey Fight Pro
[Price: Free / $1.01]
There are a lot of people who don’t like fighting in hockey and those people won’t be playing this game. It focuses solely around fighting hockey style but it’s set up like a 3D fighter. You’ll circle with your opponent and beat on them a little bit. You can play in tournament mode and upgrade your characters as well and that adds a little bit of depth. There are even achievements. There is a free version so you can try it out and the paid version is $1.01.

Injustice: Gods Among Us
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
Injustice: Gods Among Us is one of the more complete fighting game experiences on the list. You can choose from a number of your favorite DC heroes and villains and fight the other heroes and villains. You can level up characters, unlock moves, fight using online multiplayer, and the graphics are pretty good. Each fight consists of a 3-on-3 battle so you can build a roster around your play style and level up all of them. It’s a really good game and it’s free to play (with in app purchases).

The King of Fighters ’98
[Price: $2.99]
If you want something a little more old school then The King of Fighters ’98 is it. It features old school graphics and a 2D fighting style. It even employs a “credits” system like an old arcade game which, while useless, gives it a charming, old school feel. There are 38 playable characters, 4-button on-screen controls, and you can challenge your friends using Bluetooth multiplayer. It’s just as fun as it was nearly two decades ago and $2.99 really isn’t that much when you consider that fans of the series dropped more money on that in quarters in one day back when arcades were a thing.

Punch Hero
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
Punch Hero is a boxing game that takes a more 3D cartoon-style approach to the fighting game genre. You’ll play as a character that you can customize with things like facial hair and sun glasses. One of the more fun features is you can use real faces for characters so if there’s someone you’ve always wanted to punch, you can do so virtually. The mechanics are fluid and feel like an arcade game which is nice and you can play in three different game modes.
