The game is a conventional fighting game with a psudo-like perspective. {{A}}/{{2}} punches, {{B}}/{{1}} kicks, and {{C}} (no equivalent on SMS) jumps.
+
===Mega Drive version===
 +
{{ScreenThumb|Pit Fighter MD, Masked Warrior.png|width=200|The Masked Warrior}}
 +
Like other early fighting games, such as [[SNK]]'s ''[[Street Smart]]'', gameplay resembles a beat-'em-up but structured around matches involving only two to four combatants. Fighters must punch and kick their opponents until only one of them has health remaining. Fights take place in a closed arena, surrounded by a raucous crowd. The crowd can interfere by attacking, dropping usable weapons, or pushing a stray player back into the fight.
 +
 
 +
Fighters can move from side to side with {{left}} or {{right}} but also back and forth with {{up}} and {{down}}. They dash with {{left}} {{left}} or {{right}} {{right}}. Fighters punch with {{A}} and kick with {{B}}. Punches are fast but do light damage, while kicks are slower but have better damage and reach. They jump with {{C}} and jump kick with {{B}}+{{C}} (which can knock opponents down). They dodge attacks with {{A}}+{{C}} or duck with {{down}}+{{A}}+{{C}}. Fighters can be knocked down from being pummeled or thrown or having objects thrown at them, and the player must press any button multiple times to get back up. Fighters can be kicked while knocked down. Each fighter has three "super moves," which are special techniques that do more damage than normal moves and usually knock down opponents. Super moves are executed by pressing {{A}}+{{B}}+{{C}} (with the exact move chosen randomly).
 +
 
 +
Weapons and objects such as knives, throwing stars, sticks, crates, or even motorcycles can be picked up by standing over them and pressing {{A}}+{{B}}, then used or thrown with {{A}}. Weapons can increase the damage or range of the fighter's attacks. Some barrels contain a Power Pill power-up that makes the fighter temporarily stronger and take less damage from hits if picked up. Any fighter, including computer-controlled opponents, can pick up a Power Pill. Opponents can also be picked up with {{A}}+{{B}} and thrown with {{A}}.
 +
 
 +
The game can be played by one or two players simultaneously. There are three playable fighters and eight unplayable opponents. In two-player games, opponents are battled cooperatively in four-person fights. If the second player joins in the middle of a one-player match (by pressing {{Start}}), the match is finished as a three-person fight, but subsequent fights are four-person matches. Though players can hurt each other, it is only necessary to defeat the computer-controlled opponents. Players are rewarded cash (acting as the score) after each match for knockouts, "brutality," and completing the match.
 +
 
 +
Players do not have their health replenished after each match. Instead, each player starts the game with three lives and loses one whenever the fighter's health bar is emptied. A match can be continued (optionally with a different fighter) with a full health bar if the player has extra lives remaining. Otherwise, the game ends for that player.
 +
 
 +
Every third fight is a bonus round known as a Grudge Match. The loser of the match is whichever fighter is knocked down three times by his opponent. In a one-player game, the player fights against a computer-controlled clone of the player's chosen fighter. In a two-player game, the players fight each other. Losing a Grudge Match does not cost a life, but the winner gets bonus money.
  
−
In the arcades, ''Pit-Fighter'' relies on digitised graphics (later popularised by ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'') and a sprite scaling mechanism to give the illusion of depth (of which neither Sega port offers). The Master System version uses extremely small sprites and lacks most of the crowd, making it the least faithful of the many home ports of the game.
+
The final battle, the Championship Match, is between one player and the Masked Warrior, a mysterious entity that taunts the players between matches. In two-player games, the Championship Match is preceded by a special Elimination Match where both players fight, with the winner going on to face the Masked Warrior alone.
  
−
While both versions offer two-player support, neither support the three-player option seen in the arcades.
+
Pressing {{A}} at the title screen opens the options before starting the game. Players can set individual difficulty levels (higher is more difficult, with a default of 3 for each player) and set the game mode (Normal or Practice, with Practice simply being a Grudge Match).

There are eight opponents, but some of them opponents are fought more than once, for a total of ten matches before facing the Masked Warrior. Additionally, there are four Grudge Matches, fought after every two regular matches until the tenth match. In two-player games, the Championship Match against the Masked Warrior is preceded by an Elimination Match between the two players.

The game is a fighting game where players must punch and kick their opponents until their energy runs out (the fighter turns blue when defeated). Fights take place in small arenas surrounded by a crowd. The player begins by choosing one of the three playable characters, who each have different moves, speeds, and powers.
−
|EGM US 032.pdf|egm|32|141
+
 
 +
Fighters can move in any direction using the D-Pad. If fighters wander into the audience members to the left or right edges, they are pushed back into the arena. They punch with {{1}} and kick with {{2}}. They jump ahead by pressing {{up}}+{{1}} and jump ahead with a kick by pressing {{up}}+{{2}}. Each fighter has a special move that can be performed with {{1}}+{{2}}. These moves can only be done a limited number of times per match (shown by three grey circles in the top of the screen). Some moves knock fighters over. Downed opponents can be attacked by pressing {{1}} or {{2}} when standing over them. Fighters can recover quicker from being knocked down by pressing the buttons rapidly.
 +
 
 +
Objects can be picked up by pressing {{down}}+{{1}}, then thrown with {{1}}. Smaller objects, such as knives and shuriken, are used as projectile weapons. Larger objects, such as barrels and crates, are lifted over the fighter's head, preventing the fighter from moving until the object is thrown. Both kinds of object knock over the opponent on impact.
 +
 
 +
Players are awarded cash after each victorious battle, with extra cash awarded for using flying kicks and special moves or knocking the opponent down (called "KO's"). The player's health is not replenished between matches. If the player loses a match, the player must use a continue (shown by red hearts in the top of the screen) and attempt the fight again from the beginning with a full health bar, or the game ends if the player runs out of continues.
 +
 
 +
Every third fight is a bonus round known as a Grudge Match, fought against a clone of the player's chosen fighter. The winner is whichever fighter knock the other one down three times. Losing a Grudge Match does not cost a continue, but the winner gets bonus money. The final battle, the Championship Match, is against the final boss, the Masked Warrior.
 +
 
 +
Pressing {{2}} at the title screen opens the options before starting the game. There are three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard). The player can set the starting match (between 0 and 2, with 1 starting at the second match and 2 starting at the third match) and set the game mode (Normal or Practice, with Practice simply being a Grudge Match). Two-player games have three different game types: I (normal fight), II (same as I but no cash winnings), and III (same as I but no special moves). Two-player games are always competitive fights against each other rather than cooperative fights against computer opponents as in the arcade version and the Mega Drive port.

In two-player games, players are asked two times to choose a character: once from the options screen, then again after starting the game. The first time includes the fighters below as well as many of the opponents faced in the game; the second time only includes the three fighters below. Only the second selection counts (perhaps due to a programming error).

The digitised graphics of the original arcade game (later popularised by ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'') were significantly degraded to fit the color limitations of the Mega Drive and the Master System. The arcade version also features sprite scaling to give the illusion of depth as fighters move toward or away from the player and three-player fights, which are both not present in the console ports.

    Pit-Fighter or Pit Fighter (ピットファイター) is a 1990 arcade fighting game by Atari Games. Tengen ported it to the Sega Mega Drive internationally in 1991. The Kremlin ported it to the Sega Master System with a new soundtrack by The Doomsday Machine and with Domark releasing it in Europe in 1992.

    Gameplay

    Mega Drive version

    Pit Fighter MD, Masked Warrior.png

    The Masked Warrior

    Like other early fighting games, such as SNK's Street Smart, gameplay resembles a beat-'em-up but structured around matches involving only two to four combatants. Fighters must punch and kick their opponents until only one of them has health remaining. Fights take place in a closed arena, surrounded by a raucous crowd. The crowd can interfere by attacking, dropping usable weapons, or pushing a stray player back into the fight.

    Fighters can move from side to side with Left or Right but also back and forth with Up and Down. They dash with Left Left or Right Right. Fighters punch with A and kick with B. Punches are fast but do light damage, while kicks are slower but have better damage and reach. They jump with C and jump kick with B+C (which can knock opponents down). They dodge attacks with A+C or duck with Down+A+C. Fighters can be knocked down from being pummeled or thrown or having objects thrown at them, and the player must press any button multiple times to get back up. Fighters can be kicked while knocked down. Each fighter has three "super moves," which are special techniques that do more damage than normal moves and usually knock down opponents. Super moves are executed by pressing A+B+C (with the exact move chosen randomly).

    Weapons and objects such as knives, throwing stars, sticks, crates, or even motorcycles can be picked up by standing over them and pressing A+B, then used or thrown with A. Weapons can increase the damage or range of the fighter's attacks. Some barrels contain a Power Pill power-up that makes the fighter temporarily stronger and take less damage from hits if picked up. Any fighter, including computer-controlled opponents, can pick up a Power Pill. Opponents can also be picked up with A+B and thrown with A.

    The game can be played by one or two players simultaneously. There are three playable fighters and eight unplayable opponents. In two-player games, opponents are battled cooperatively in four-person fights. If the second player joins in the middle of a one-player match (by pressing  START ), the match is finished as a three-person fight, but subsequent fights are four-person matches. Though players can hurt each other, it is only necessary to defeat the computer-controlled opponents. Players are rewarded cash (acting as the score) after each match for knockouts, "brutality," and completing the match.

    Players do not have their health replenished after each match. Instead, each player starts the game with three lives and loses one whenever the fighter's health bar is emptied. A match can be continued (optionally with a different fighter) with a full health bar if the player has extra lives remaining. Otherwise, the game ends for that player.

    Every third fight is a bonus round known as a Grudge Match. The loser of the match is whichever fighter is knocked down three times by his opponent. In a one-player game, the player fights against a computer-controlled clone of the player's chosen fighter. In a two-player game, the players fight each other. Losing a Grudge Match does not cost a life, but the winner gets bonus money.

    The final battle, the Championship Match, is between one player and the Masked Warrior, a mysterious entity that taunts the players between matches. In two-player games, the Championship Match is preceded by a special Elimination Match where both players fight, with the winner going on to face the Masked Warrior alone.

    Pressing A at the title screen opens the options before starting the game. Players can set individual difficulty levels (higher is more difficult, with a default of 3 for each player) and set the game mode (Normal or Practice, with Practice simply being a Grudge Match).

    The Masked Warrior

    The game is a fighting game where players must punch and kick their opponents until their energy runs out (the fighter turns blue when defeated). Fights take place in small arenas surrounded by a crowd. The player begins by choosing one of the three playable characters, who each have different moves, speeds, and powers.

    Fighters can move in any direction using the D-Pad. If fighters wander into the audience members to the left or right edges, they are pushed back into the arena. They punch with 1 and kick with 2. They jump ahead by pressing Up+1 and jump ahead with a kick by pressing Up+2. Each fighter has a special move that can be performed with 1+2. These moves can only be done a limited number of times per match (shown by three grey circles in the top of the screen). Some moves knock fighters over. Downed opponents can be attacked by pressing 1 or 2 when standing over them. Fighters can recover quicker from being knocked down by pressing the buttons rapidly.

    Objects can be picked up by pressing Down+1, then thrown with 1. Smaller objects, such as knives and shuriken, are used as projectile weapons. Larger objects, such as barrels and crates, are lifted over the fighter's head, preventing the fighter from moving until the object is thrown. Both kinds of object knock over the opponent on impact.

    Players are awarded cash after each victorious battle, with extra cash awarded for using flying kicks and special moves or knocking the opponent down (called "KO's"). The player's health is not replenished between matches. If the player loses a match, the player must use a continue (shown by red hearts in the top of the screen) and attempt the fight again from the beginning with a full health bar, or the game ends if the player runs out of continues.

    Every third fight is a bonus round known as a Grudge Match, fought against a clone of the player's chosen fighter. The winner is whichever fighter knock the other one down three times. Losing a Grudge Match does not cost a continue, but the winner gets bonus money. The final battle, the Championship Match, is against the final boss, the Masked Warrior.

    Pressing 2 at the title screen opens the options before starting the game. There are three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, and Hard). The player can set the starting match (between 0 and 2, with 1 starting at the second match and 2 starting at the third match) and set the game mode (Normal or Practice, with Practice simply being a Grudge Match). Two-player games have three different game types: I (normal fight), II (same as I but no cash winnings), and III (same as I but no special moves). Two-player games are always competitive fights against each other rather than cooperative fights against computer opponents as in the arcade version and the Mega Drive port.

    Items

    Pit Fighter SMS, Power Pill.png
    		 Power Pill
    Increases the damage dealt and reduces the damage taken by the fighter if picked up. The word "POWER" appears below the fighter while the item's effects are active.

    Fighters

    In two-player games, players are asked two times to choose a character: once from the options screen, then again after starting the game. The first time includes the fighters below as well as many of the opponents faced in the game; the second time only includes the three fighters below. Only the second selection counts (perhaps due to a programming error).

    A former pro wrestler who can perform the Body Slam.

    		 Ty
    A kickboxing champion who can perform the Flying Kick.

    Versions

    The digitised graphics of the original arcade game (later popularised by Mortal Kombat) were significantly degraded to fit the color limitations of the Mega Drive and the Master System. The arcade version also features sprite scaling to give the illusion of depth as fighters move toward or away from the player and three-player fights, which are both not present in the console ports.
