Game Summary:
Fight Club contains gameplay and visual elements found in several notable sixth-generation 3D fighting games, such as multi height-zone targeting combos consisting of heavily reused strikes found in Tekken 4; the localized damaged system in which limbs can be permanently damaged found in Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus; the wall throws, height-zone specific counters, and stage transitions found in Dead or Alive 3; the environmental usage found in Mortal Kombat: Deception; and the overall realism (Such as a lack of juggling), heavy, high-recovery move kinaesthetics, and gritty, grimy, urban aesthetic found in titles such as Def Jam: Fight for NY. In a side-view, players control one of two characters who perform various fighting moves until one is beaten. Fight Club structures the formula around the premise of the movie, where two men meet secretly to fight each other into submission. Players fight as one of the 12 original characters from the novel and movie, including Tyler Durden and Robert (Bob) Paulson.

Fight Club sports the gritty feel of the movie with injuries inflicted on players and blood splattering everywhere, including onto the screen. The game also introduces many new features into the fighting game genre. In Hardcore mode, injuries are carried over from one fight to another, which could lead to the player being so injured that he is forced to retire (although this mode only applies to custom-made characters). The game also goes into mini-cutscenes showing X-rays of the character to display bones being broken. Fighting moves are intended to be brutally violent, such as one where the opponent’s arm is visibly broken at the elbow. Levels are designed around scenes from the movie, such as Lou’s bar and Paper Street.

In Story mode, an original character-named only protagonist decides to join Fight Club after breaking up with his girlfriend. By winning fights, the character moves up through the ranks of Fight Club, getting closer to Project Mayhem and becoming Tyler Durden’s right-hand man. The story diverges from the movie and novel in several ways to accommodate the new character. Completing Story mode also unlocks Fred Durst, lead singer of Limp Bizkit, as a playable character, as per the singer’s own stated demands that he becomes a playable character in any video game licensing music from his band.
