Best 3DO Interactive Multiplayer fighting games

The Matrix has 11 fighting games on file for the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, released between 1994–1996. 7 of them support multiplayer. They're ranked below by legacy score, so the games that shaped the genre on the 3DO come first, with lesser-known picks further down.

Fighting games pit two characters against each other in short one-on-one bouts. Depth comes from learning special moves, combos and each character's strengths.

Typical commitment: quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun). Tip: Pick one character and learn their basic special moves before branching out. Fighting games are at their best against a friend at a similar skill level.
