Play World Heroes 2-mame Online
Samurais, cowboys, and ninjas throw down with clunky but hilarious special moves—dodge stage hazards while yelling along with the over-the-top attack calls. It’s janky in that way only ‘90s fighters get away with.
World Heroes 2 is a 1993 fighting game from ADK, playable on MAME 0.243. It arrived during the peak of the arcade versus fighter era, offering a cast of historical and fictional characters duking it out across time and space. The game doesn't try to reinvent the genre; it just delivers a straightforward, slightly offbeat alternative to the bigger names of the time.
You pick a fighter like a cyborg ninja or a muscle-bound gladiator and face opponents in one-on-one matches across various themed stages. The main goal is to deplete the other fighter's health bar or knock them out of the ring. Signature mechanics include a Death Match mode with stage hazards like electric fences, and each character has exaggerated, often impractical super moves. The pacing is deliberate, the difficulty can spike unexpectedly, and the overall feel is unpolished but full of personality. It's the kind of game where you laugh at the absurdity as much as you try to win.
