Beat the Champ

About

Beat the Champ is a fast paced arcade game that pits players against a series of sports challenges. Each mini game represents a different athletic contest ranging from boxing to basketball all designed with Konami's signature flair for over the top action. Controls are simple focusing on quick reflexes and timing making it easy to jump into a match but tough to master. Single player mode lets you take on the machine's best while the two player option turns every round into a head to head showdown. What sets Beat the Champ apart is its variety and competitive edge. With over a dozen mini games each packed with its own quirks and mechanics no two matches feel the same. The 1996 release date places it in the golden era of arcade gaming and its multiplayer mode was a hit in arcades for its straightforward yet addictive gameplay. Though it lacks the polish of modern titles fans of retro arcade action often cite it as a must play for its energetic style and replayability.
