"FX Fighter" is a video game developed by Argonaut Games and released by GTE Entertainment in 1995. It was the first realtime 3D fighting game to be developed for the PC. The game was also being developed for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, but eventually only the PC CD-ROM version for MS-DOS was released.

The game features 8 different characters, eight different arenas, movie cut scenes, and 40 attacks per fighter. The player selects a character to face against eight of the best fighters in the universe for a prize consisting of the most powerful weapon in the universe.

uper NES

A version for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System was previewed in Nintendo Power #69 and relied on the Super FX 2 processor to deliver groundbreaking 3D graphics that were otherwise unattainable on 16-bit game platforms at the time. However, the project was canceled prior to release along with Star Fox 2, another Super FX 2-powered title for the system.

"FX Fighter Turbo" is a sequel that was released for the PC in 1996 with new characters, moves, environments, costumes, special effects, network play, and support for Microsoft Windows and the S3 Graphics chipset. As did many other fighting games at the time, FX Fighter Turbo followed suit with the legendary Mortal Kombat by including fatalities, a feature not seen in the previous game.
