StaceyPowers Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 My favorite melee experience used to be in TLOU, but melee fighting in TLOU Part 2 has blown it out of the water. What games offer your favorite melee combat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 There are so many to count from in " The Last Of Us II" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 DMC 5 has great melee combat, Metal Gear Games, Skyrim, Kingdom, Witcher 3 and Onimusha. I could even throw in MMOs like Eden Eternal, Champions Online and Aura Kingdom. Age of Wushu also gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it is the best among all in respect of melee fighting. I am not that fan of melee fights, but the close combat gameplay is really awesome here. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I've said that TLOU2 is a huge leap forward in animation, it is so far above anything else that it is mindblowing. Animations used to be janky, disconnected, glitchy in games. Felt like when an animation starts a magnet pulls characters into the desired position in every other game. Not in TLOU2, where everything is fluid, the transitions between moves is seamless, the melee combat is visceral and brutal. On a technology level that is the biggest achievement of the game, that sadly gets totally overlooked by most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Withywarlock Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 The correct answer is Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide and its sequel. Hammer go brrrr, as the young people appear to be saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Base on the option I've played, I'll simply say GTA V 5, S.A versions offers the best melee fights ever. Due to how everyone wants to attack my character, I love the fight with policemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 There are some games that are pretty good like AC Odyssey and God of War 3, but I can't think of one that I consider very satisfying. I think games that might have that satisfaction is if I was greatly challenged. But games like that tend to be too hard to enjoy such as Bloodborne and Sekiro. Surprisingly, I really liked the combat in Hellblade. I wish the game had a lot more of combat and less puzzles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Middle-earth: Shadow Of War is another great game which has got a breathtaking experience with the kind of melee combat that's witnessed in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the trailer, it resembles God of war through the background, and character lookalike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Any one looking for one of the best melee games should simply head over to search for combat games especially on wrestling or boxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
