About

What if your favorite ’80s arcade beat ’em up transformed into a modern 3D fighting game every time you reached a boss?

Based on the hit Image Comics series Final Boss from acclaimed comic creator Tyler Kirkham, Final Boss: The Video Game is a genre-blending action experience that combines three distinct styles into one seamless adventure: retro pixel art brawling, modern 3D fighting game combat, and animated comic book storytelling.

Join Tommy Brazen and his allies as they battle through dangerous islands, forgotten deserts, criminal empires, and larger-than-life villains in a world inspired by the classic action games and comics that defined a generation. As Tommy’s mysterious powers awaken and the truth behind his family’s legacy begins to unfold, every fight brings him closer to uncovering a destiny far greater than he imagined.

Fight solo or team up with up to three friends in local couch cooperative play as you play as Tommy, Rabak, Masked Vigilante, and Midnight Lily. Smash your way through hordes of enemies, survive environmental hazards, master new abilities, and prepare for the ultimate test waiting at the end of every stage. Because when the boss arrives, everything changes.

The scrolling action gives way to a fully 3D one-on-one showdown where timing, skill, and strategy matter. Every stage introduces new mechanics during the beat ’em up sections and then challenges you to master them during an intense boss duel.

In cooperative play, players can tag teammates into battle, creating a unique hybrid experience that combines the chaos of an arcade brawler with the precision of a competitive fighting game.

Final Boss: The Video Game is a love letter to the golden age of gaming, reimagined for a new generation.
