- TRIVIA -

Martial Champion was released in June 1993.

This game was former known as 'Yie Ar kung Fu 2', before it was released.

The character Jin is similar to the playable character of 'Ye Ar Kung Fu'.

The last boss, "Salamander", has the same name of the homonymous shoot'em up Konami

Martial Champion's sprites were some of the largest used in a fighting game up to that point (1993).

- UPDATES -

In all non-Japanese versions, Titi is known as Chaos and vice-versa.

- TIPS AND TRICKS -

Some of the selectable characters as Goldor, Avu, Titi (or Chaos in the Japanese version), Mahamba and Zen fighting with their weapons : if they fall to the ground during the fight (example, after a throw), they lose their weapon, and it can be collected by the opponent (by the way, few characters can use weapons to hit directly the opponent) : the lost weapon can be even recovered by his owner.

Beat all the game without lose a round to see specials ending with the showcase of all the characters
