About Final Fight 3

Final Fight 3 continues the series' established format as a side-scrolling combat title, a genre shared with contemporaries like Double Dragon and Streets of Rage. The action takes place in Metro City, where the fall of the Mad Gear gang has created a power vacuum now filled by the Skull Cross gang.

Players control one of four characters, including returning figures Mike Haggar and Guy as well as new additions Dean and Lucia, to confront this new threat. The core gameplay involves engaging enemies with a repertoire of standard and special strikes, while also utilizing environmental objects such as pipes, bottles, and lampposts as improvised weapons.
