Games Like Smash Bros for PC
Brawlhalla
Brawlhalla is one the most successful free-to-play games like Smash Bros for PC. With over 84 percent of their 82k Steam reviews being positive, Brawlhalla is a literal Smash hit. It’s a 2D platform fighter that allows players to battle using all sorts of weapons: swords, axes, rocket lances, and more. Throwables and gadgets also appear in the game, such as bombs and mines.
Brawlhalla has some of the most polished game modes out of all the Smash Bros clones. You can play ranked in one-on-one and two-on-two modes, free-for-alls with four single players or eight players across two teams, locally with single or team matches, or just take a character to the Training Room and practice your combos.
There are also sports game modes. Bombsketball is similar to Slap City’s Slap Ball, just a little more explosive. Numerous Bouncy Bombs exist in the stage and there are two targets where the players must score by hitting the opposing team’s target with a Bouncy Bomb.
Brawlball is Brawlhalla’s take on American football—with weapons. The goal in this game mode is to grab the football in the center of the stage and run it into the opposing team’s goal zone. Players running the ball have dramatically reduced speed, and this mode requires a lot of strategy and teamwork.
Brawlhalla is currently available on Steam for Windows and Mac OS X versions 10.7 and higher. If you also own a console, you can play Brawlhalla on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
