    LET’S GO FIGHTING GAMESSSSSS

    Tekken 8 - $39.98
    I’ve heard good things about this Tekken, but I’ve never wrapped my head around the combo/juggle system and 3-D fighters in general

    DBFZ - $9.59
    Great game, it’s a shame that it didn’t get to shine long enough as the common grounds among various FGC communities. Still, for $10, that’s great.

    MK1 - $27.99
    I think this is supposed to be a story reboot, so it’s easy to get into for newer players, narrative-wise. Combat seems to be good too, and NRA is great for including lots of things to do for people who aren’t into grinding a ranked ladder against human opponents.

    GG Strive - $19.99
    This game is GREAT. It isn’t quite as frenetic as older entries or other anime fighters, but it’s flashy and stylish as hell. I’ve gotten multiple people into fighting games starting with GG Strive. Definitely check it out if the look or style even remotely interests you.

    Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising - $29.99
    I like this one a lot, though the sale is a bit shallow. Anime looks, but a very grounded system. It gelled with me, coming from a Street Fighter background. I still struggle with corner combos, but to me it’s a demonstration of the accessibility and depth of the game. I can hit my 4 hit combo, sure, but someone who knows what they’re doing can pull out a 9-move combo and do 30% more damage in the corner, meaning that playing for stage position and footsies and everything are just as important as they are in SF.
