Introduction to the Final Fight Series

Since its 1989 arcade debut, Capcom's Final Fight has been the gold standard of belt-scrolling beat-'em-ups, starring Mike Haggar, Cody Travers, and Guy in their battle against the Mad Gear Gang in Metro City. Known for its gritty urban aesthetic, grappling mechanics, and multi-layered stages, the series defined Capcom's arcade dominance in the 90s.
