Although very popular on consoles, the fighting game genre is not as well known on cell phones, even though it has some of the most well-known titles in gaming history. For this reason, we have compiled a list of the 7 best fighting games for Android below. Check out!
1. Shadow Fight 3
Shadow Fight 3 is a little-known fighting game that can surprise many fans of the genre. The game has great graphics, interesting visual identity, charismatic characters and good gameplay. Unlike many fighting games for mobile, Shadow Fight 3 has several command buttons that allow a good variety of strikes, dodges, defenses, combos, etc. To make it easier, the game has a very didactic tutorial for you to familiarize yourself with all the commands. Shadow Fight 3 has about 30 characters with unique movements and characteristics. In addition, you need to unlock equipment such as weapons, armor and helms, and equip them the way you want.

Power Rangers: Legacy Wars is the mobile fighting game from the famous Power Rangers series. Here you can control several rangers from different seasons, each with their own attributes. Matches are played between three fighters: a principal and two assistants. Thus, it is possible to assemble teams with different compositions and characteristics. The fights in Power Rangers: Legacy Wars have a very unique system. You have an energy bar that must be well managed when choosing strokes. Each spends a different amount of energy, and you must know which hit can be combined with another. In addition, the blows follow a system of stone, paper and scissors to define who hits who first.

In UFC Mobile you have the chance to control the octagon's greatest legends. The game contains over 70 real UFC fighters, reproduced with extreme fidelity, not only in appearance but also in their skills. Here you can play with fighters from 5 UFC categories: flyweight, bantamweight, light weight, medium weight and heavyweight. Among the most famous are Anderson Silva, Jon Jones, José Aldo, Conor Mcgregor, Ronda Rousey, Cris Cyborg and etc. In terms of gameplay, UFC Mobile follows the same style as the other games in the series. There are no combos, supers or even a life bar. For those who have never played a UFC before, it takes a certain amount of time to adapt. Click here to download the game.4. Mortal Kombat X Mobile
The most violent and bloody fighting game of all time has come to Android. In Mortal Kombat X Mobile you can play with more than 130 characters from the MK universe, many of them requiring no introduction. Unfortunately, despite the console-worthy graphics, the game is very shallow in terms of gameplay. The controls couldn't be simpler: you press the buttons that appear on the screen and slide your finger when asked. There is no skill involved here. To compensate for the extremely simple gameplay, the game involves a lot of strategy in a style similar to card games. The matches take place in teams of 3 characters that you must choose according to their advantages and disadvantages, trying to build the strongest team possible. Click here to download the game.5. Injustice 2
Injustice 2 is Warner's fighting game that brings together various characters from the DC universe. Altogether, there are more than 30 playable characters, among them are Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Joker, Flash, Bane and many others famous. The game's graphics are console worthy and, even though it is a fighting game, it has an interesting story. The gameplay also leaves something to be desired. Most moves are made with sliding commands in several directions and each character has his own set of combos. In addition to the fun fighting, Injustice 2 captures players with its well-crafted progress system. It takes a long time to not only unlock the characters but also all their upgrades.

Marvel Contest of Champions brings together more than 150 characters from the Marvel universe, divided into classes. Despite the simple gameplay (all characters are controlled in the same way), the game has a lot of content to be unlocked and each character needs to be upgraded individually. Marvel Tournament of Champions also has several missions to be completed, items to be obtained and equipped in the best way, temporary events, etc. In short, there is a lot to be done in preparation for the fights. It is definitely a game that will take your time well. Click here to download the game.7. Street Fighter IV Champion Edition
The series that revolutionized fighting games is also on mobile. Street Fighter IV Champion Edition looks a lot like the console versions of the game. With high quality graphics and dozens of playable characters, the game excels in gameplay. With a very responsive virtual directional pad (which is missing from other games of the genre), you can make the famous half moon or shoryuken movements, trademarks of the series. This, in itself, adds much more complexity to the game as it requires real skill to play at a high level. Click here to download the game.
