Prizefight

About

Two-player boxing game Prizefight lets you square off in a ring. You can win by knockout or by outscoring your opponent. The simple controls make it easy to pick up whether you're jabbing or throwing heavy punches. While the graphics are basic by today’s standards the fast-paced action keeps things competitive. Released in 1979 this early fighting game is a rare example of multiplayer gaming from the late 70s. It never gained modern popularity but has a small following among retro game collectors. The straightforward gameplay and split-screen matches still feel satisfying especially if you enjoy old-school arcade-style duels.
