About the Game

What if your favorite '80s arcade beat 'em up transformed into a modern 3D fighting game every time you reached a boss?

Based on the hit Image Comics series Final Boss by acclaimed creator Tyler Kirkham, Final Boss is a genre-blending action game that seamlessly combines retro pixel-art brawling, cinematic comic-book storytelling, and modern 3D fighting game combat.

Play as Tommy Brazen and his allies as they battle across dangerous islands, forgotten deserts, and criminal empires inspired by the classic action games and comics that defined a generation. As Tommy's mysterious powers awaken and the truth behind his family's legacy unfolds, every victory brings him closer to a destiny far greater than he imagined.

Fight solo or with up to three friends in local co-op as Tommy, Rabak, Masked Vigilante, and Midnight Lily. Battle through enemy hordes, survive environmental hazards, unlock new abilities, and prepare for the defining moment of every stage.

When the boss arrives, everything changes. Side-scrolling action seamlessly transitions into a fully 3D one-on-one showdown where timing, reflex, and mastery take center stage. Each level teaches new mechanics during the beat 'em up sections before testing them in an unforgettable boss encounter. In co-op, teammates can tag into duels, creating a unique hybrid of arcade brawler chaos and competitive fighting game depth.

Final Boss is a love letter to the golden age of arcade action, reimagined for a new generation.
