There was a time before the battle royale, the survival game, the FPS - and it involved smacking people with pipes and eating food off the floor. The beat-’em-up was once queen of all - though only for a short, golden era.

Part one looks at the rise of the genre, along with a few examples of companies who really ran with it. Part two will follow, and will conclude.

Please do like, share and subscribe if you enjoy. Don’t if you don’t, it’s all good.
