Saves you a refund- Players seeking a story campaign, character progression, or solo-focused content may find the match-based structure limited.

Our take on OctaFight
The bounce point arrives when a player expects a campaign or progression system: OctaFight places its focus on repeated versus matches, custom rules, and multiplayer groups rather than a solo journey.
What is OctaFight?
OctaFight is a versus combat game built around movement, jumping, shielding, throwing, and timed bomb activation.
Matches support 2 to 8 participants in individual or team formats, either on one couch or online. Players can adjust the fighting rules, combine different bomb types, and select from varied game modes and arenas, including Castle and Towerfall. The game includes a selection of distinct characters and uses a deliberately low-resolution visual style. Its structure centers on short multiplayer bouts where survival determines the winner. Online play allows friends in different locations to join the same matches.
