The 3D Fighter tag refers to a genre of fighting games that are played in three-dimensional environments. These games feature characters who engage in hand-to-hand combat, using a variety of martial arts moves and special abilities to defeat their opponents.

In contrast to traditional 2D fighting games, 3D fighters introduce an additional axis of movement. Players can move forward, backward, sidestep, and even jump or duck in the game world. This added dimensionality allows for more fluid and dynamic gameplay as players can circle around opponents, evade attacks from different angles, or perform elaborate combo sequences.

Some key features of 3D fighter games include:

• Movement and Positioning The ability to freely navigate the 3D space adds depth and strategy to the gameplay. Players must consider positioning themselves advantageously in relation to their opponent while also being mindful of their own vulnerabilities.
• Combo Attacks Like other fighting game genres, 3D fighters offer various combo attacks that require precise input combinations. Skilled players can chain together several moves seamlessly for devastating combos, adding another layer of complexity and mastery.
• Diverse Character Roster 3D fighter games often feature diverse rosters with different fighters, each with unique styles, strengths, weaknesses, and special moves. This encourages experimentation as players try out different characters to discover their preferred playstyle.

Larger scale arenas with interactive elements such as destructible objects or stage hazards are also common in many 3D fighters.

• Virtua Fighter seriesThis renowned series by SEGA is often credited as one of the first successful 3D fighter franchises. Virtua Fighter introduced a real-time 3D fighting experience with complex and technical mechanics.
• Tekken series Developed by Bandai Namco, the Tekken franchise is another popular example of the 3D fighter genre. Known for its large character roster and deep combat system, it has become one of the most beloved fighting game franchises worldwide.
• SoulCalibur series Developed by Bandai Namco as well, SoulCalibur stands out with its weapon-based combat, delivering intense duels in fantastical medieval settings.

3D fighter games bring a unique perspective to traditional fighting games by incorporating a third dimension into gameplay.
