Digimon Rumble Arena

Digimon Rumble Arena is a 2001 fighting video game developed and published by Bandai. It is part of a video game series connected to the Digimon franchise and showcases the titular creatures within the context of a fighting video game. The player controls one of several Digimon and engages in combat with other Digimon within a variety of settings. Apart from the central fighting gameplay, a trio of mini-games are available upon the single-player campaign's completion.

Bandai produced the game under the oversight of Hudson Soft, and it was released for the PlayStation in Japan in 2001, with a North American and European release following in 2002; its late release in the console's life cycle resulted in minimal press coverage. Digimon Rumble Arena received mixed reviews from critics, who noted the game's similarity to Super Smash Bros., and believed that the gameplay, while simple and accessible, lacked polish. A sequel, Digimon Rumble Arena 2, was released in 2004, while a spiritual successor to the first two installments, Digimon All-Star Rumble, was released in 2014.
