It's surprising no-one's done this on the PC before now: scrolling-n-fighting games have been around ever since Irem's Kung Fu Master first appeared in the video arcades. Here's the basic concept behind Fighting Force: take an old-fashioned side-scrolling beat 'em up game of the Streets of Rage variety, and give it a cutting-edge 3D makeover, adding a host of new gameplay elements as you do so. A cooperative mode allows friends to team up, but a full single-player story exists as well.
Players will utilize available weapons like knives, axes, and guns. The seven levels stretch across 25 stages and include shopping malls, secret islands, submarines, and office buildings. Players can choose from four different playable characters - Hawk Manson, Ben Jackson, Mace Daniels, and Alana McEndrick - and learn unique character moves, special moves, and combinations.
Fighting Force features interactive 3D environments and a variety of attacking moves.
