At its core, Pit-Fighter is an action-packed experience that lets players choose from three fighters: Buzz, Ty, or Kato. The game takes place in a boxing ring, where the objective is to knock out your opponent. Each match culminates in an award of Knockout Bonus, Brutality Bonus, and a Fight Purse, which can be used to unlock new content.
The gameplay revolves around one-on-one matches, with every third match being a Grudge Match where players test each other's skills. The last man standing wins the opportunity to face the champion, the Masked Warrior, in an Elimination Match. As players progress through the game, they'll need to fight their way to the top to claim the championship title.
