Pit-Fighter is a 1990 fighting game developed and published by Atari Games for arcades. The Japanese release was published by Konami. Home versions were published by Tengen.

The game uses digitized live actors captured through a bluescreen process, where the various poses and moves were performed by actors in front of a video camera. The game's on-screen character animation is replays of the actual footage, not a rotoscoped (redrawn) animation. Pit-Fighter is the second fighting game to use digitized sprites, after Home Data's Reikai Dōshi: Chinese Exorcist.
