It’s been one heck of a year for fighting games on the PlayStation 4, what with a slew of fighters being available on the console. Continuing with our final Best of 2016 game awards winner for the day, we pick the best fighting game released on the PS4 this year.

We’ve plucked the best of the bunch, and they are a varied set of nominees, too. It’s been a fantastic year for fighting game fans and this is one award that’s bound to have different winners based on a gamer’s fighting game preference. Like in our other Best of 2016 awards, the winner was picked based on the total number of votes it got among staff, and not based on just the review score.
