What are the best games for unarmed combat?

-

I’m a big fan of games that feature solid fistfights and unarmed combat mechanics. I’ve already played Sifu, the Yakuza series, and the Batman: Arkham games, plus Mad Max. I’m looking for more recommendations in the same vein but I want to avoid traditional fighting games like Tekken, even though I enjoy them too! What other games should I check out?

If you like RPG elements, ‘Kingdom Come: Deliverance’ includes fistfighting quests. You can level up your unarmed skill which makes it more interesting. Plus, there are other games like Skyrim and Fallout that let your fists do some talking too!

You should definitely check out ‘The Warriors’ and ‘God Hand.’ They both offer unique combat experiences that I think you’ll really enjoy!

Have you tried ‘Sleeping Dogs’? The hand-to-hand combat is pretty awesome and fits right into your criteria!

Haha, I got here 30 mins late. Totally agree with that pick!

StreetFighterFan -

‘Condemned: Criminal Origins’ is a bit different since it’s a horror game, but the melee combat against the enemies is pretty engaging! It could use a remaster, though.

BrawlerMax -

Don’t overlook ‘Paint the Town Red’! It’s a fun game that allows for a lot of creative brawling and even has VR compatibility if that’s your thing.

TechnoSamurai -

Totally! I love the chaotic nature of that game.
