Eight fighters battle for the wrestling championship
The briefing
Champion Wrestler is a wrestling-focused fighting game in which players choose from eight fighters and compete to become champion. Matches use punches, kicks, and throws to force opponents into submission.
The action is presented from an elevated side view that shows the entire ring. Leaving the ring starts a short countdown; failing to return before time expires ends the match.
Developed and published by Taito, Champion Wrestler was released in 1988 for arcade and later appeared on NEC PC Engine, TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine, Wii, and Final Burn Alpha Neo.
