Battle across the stars in Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors

Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors is a 1995 arcade fighting game in which you choose one of eight playable characters and either take on another player in head-to-head competition or fight your way through a series of matches with other fighters and unique boss characters.

A simple but memorable fighter

Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors uses a simple three-button control scheme, with the fourth button providing a purely cosmetic taunt. The roster consists of eight playable characters; in the single player game, you’ll encounter these plus an additional four boss characters. The game’s science-fiction setting means that the characters vary wildly in appearance and attack style, from human astronauts to giant robots and lizard aliens, which helps keep the experience fresh.

A fun, fast-paced fighting game

Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors has a limited roster, but the variety of characters keeps the game interesting. The colorful and varied cast makes Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors worth the time of any fighting game fan, and the relatively simple controls make it accessible compared to some later fighting games. It lacks any strong distinctive feature that would make it stand out among the fighting games of the 1990s, but it’s still enjoyable.
