The ever-growing popularity of the multiplayer sandbox gameRobloxcannot be understated. The game debuted nearly 15 years ago and is still one of the most popular browser-based games out there. There’s even a mobile version now.
When it comes to fighting games onRoblox, there are great games and there are not-so-great games. TheRobloxengine does present some limitations for complexity, but some of thebest games on the platformfound ways to present a true competitive experience. SomeRobloxfighting games even feature recognizable characters, mostly from various anime.
Updated March 23, 2024by Erik Petrovich: Roblox continues to be one of the most popular free games on the internet, and Roblox fighting games continue to become more and more advanced every year. Years ago in Roblox fighting games were much more limited than they are nowadays, and two new entries to this list prove the capability of the unassuming Roblox engine: The Strongest Battlegrounds, and Weapon Fighting Simulator. These two games are some of the best fighting games on Roblox because of their deep combat systems and for doing things that no other game could do for free.
17The Strongest Battlegrounds
Roblox PvP – With A Dodge Roll
The Strongest Battlegroundsis one of the few relatively deep sandboxRobloxfighting games. While many fighting gamesRobloxplayers can jump into offer lots of flashy abilities or cool-looking combat, not many of them needplayers to be strategic to win.
The Strongest Battlegrounds is different. Its variety of abilities complement each other and offer ways to combine and outsmart your opponents. In particular, it’s actually got dodge mechanics, and lets players react to their targets rather than just run around them mindlessly.
16Weapon Fighting Simulator
Fight Raid Bosses With Lots Of Weapons & Spells
WhileThe Strongest Battlegroundsoffers strategy, moment-to-moment thinking, and 1v1 PvP battles,Weapon Fighting Simulatoris all about fighting bosses and tough enemies. Instead of other players, you’re fighting bosses that require you to play smart and avoid mechanics – like a Raid boss in an MMO.
InWeapon Fighting Simulator, your goal is to become “the strongest martial artist of all time”, and its array of spells, weapons, and abilities you can use against its bosses certainly live up to that.
A Boxing Simulator That Packs A Punch
Robloxis a game with a lot of creative potential, and can sometimes surprise players with how far developers push its engine and what can be done – especially compared to a decade ago.Boxing Betais one of theseRobloxfighting games that raises the bar, offering players much more than the standard stand-and-hit-or-shoot gameplay so manyRobloxfighting games come down to.
Boxing Betais a full-fledged boxing simulator, one that balances players' ability to deal and take blows with block meters, stamina and HP bars, and lots of ways to attack and defend against opponents. Though the game is still in its beta phase, what’s out there is promising and is as close asRobloxplayers will get to playingPunch-Out!in the engine.
More Chaotic Than Your Average 1v1 Slap Battle
Slap Battlesmakes for one of the bestRobloxfighting games in 2023 thanks to its simplicity and potential for chaos. The objective for players inSlap Battlesis simple: slap other players, earn Slaps, and upgrade your gloves to become stronger and even gain special abilities.
With tons of players active at any time,Slap Battlesquickly turns into an all-out brawl, and players won’t be able to tell where the next slap will come from – let alone who their next target will be. PlaySlap Battlesfor its fast-paced, chaotic and unpredictable fights, not necessarily for its impressive graphics or deep gameplay systems.
13Anime Fighter Simulator X
Take On Anime Icons In An Expansive, If Repetitive, World
Anime Fighter Simulator, formerly known as Anime Fighters, is aRobloxgame that pits the player against the most famous characters from anime past and present. Players get to choose their characters (who can be crafted or fused together as well) to beat their opponents, get Yen, and even complete little mini-games in multiple different worlds.
The game has been criticized for its repetitive gameplay, which is mostly a loop of defeating opponents,acquiring money from their victories, spending it, then going back to defeat stronger opponents. The multiple worlds and mini-games like time trials make it worth checking out, though.
12Bleeding Blades
Historical Battles & Tactical Strategy
Bleeding Bladesis a game unlike any other fighting games inRoblox. Taking inspiration from theMount and Bladeseries, where players control both their character and their armies in battle. The game features multiple different armies, including Rome, Greece, and other ancient and medieval powers.
While the game is currently in its alpha stage, it’s nonetheless worth following as it gets more and more developed. Currently, the game features three battles: the Battle of Thermopylae, the Siege of Halicarnassus, and the Battle of Milvian Bridge. It’s worth noting that the developers ofBleeding Bladesbased these maps and game modes on real-life events.
11Noob Army Tycoon
Pikmin Meets Command & Conquer – In Roblox
Noob Army Tycoonis exactly what it sounds like – a simulator game where players are able to control a vast army of noobs. It’s something of a strategy game with that, particularly absurdRobloxflair. Despite only being released in 2021, the game has amassed nearly 150 million visits already.
The game features upgrading systems, vehicles, different types of troops, and is based around a King of the Hill game mode. It takes a lot of inspiration from the older game Clone Tycoon 2, but with several different systems and a different overall approach to gameplay.
10Boxing League
A Complex Boxing Game That’s Remained Popular For Years
Boxing Leagueis a game inRobloxthat doesn’t actually let players box… however, they can kick, hug, and push their opponent around until the victor emerges. It’s surprisingly fun and it’s one of the most playedRobloxgames.
There are a bunch of ways to improve the in-game experience, too, like double XP and a smallvariety of cosmetic skins. Being one of the most popular FightingRobloxgames, there’s almost always somebody online to fight against, though the more recently popularBoxing Betamay be taking the spotlight more recently.
9N The JoJo Game
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Has Never Looked This Blocky
N The JoJo Game, abbreviated as justNin theRobloxgames list, is aJoJo’s Bizarre Adventure-inspired fighting game made within the Roblox engine. It’s surprisingly playable and is supported for all devices (although the creator notes thatsome devices have altered content).
The game took a long time to develop, although it was just meant to be a test.N The JoJo Gameturned into one of the best fighting games onRobloxpartly for the memes of both the anime andRobloxitself.
8Super Hero Tycoon
Less Fighting Game, More RPG – With Several Versions
Super Hero Tycoonis not as much one of the least trueRobloxfighting games and more of a simulator-RPG-type game with a bit of fighting thrown in there. There’s a huge number of superheroes in the simulator from all different franchises, but mostly from Marvel and DC Comics.
There are anumber of special versionsof the game that come packaged with different heroes, including some from comic franchises not owned by either Marvel or DC. Give them all a try to find one with your favorite superhero available!
