Fighting games that have battles between characters as the main content started appearing in the 1970s and are one of the classic games played until now. In the past, when graphic technology did not develop, fighting games continued to develop thanks to the steady consumption of players, despite the fact that expression of characters and the skills that a character can use were very limited, and the interactions between characters and game rules were very simple. .

Accordingly, as games such as Tekken, Street Fighters, and The King of Fighters, familiar to many people, repeat several series, the production of characters and fighting techniques has become more sophisticated and realistic. Aside from these familiar fighting games, recently released fighting games such as Dragon Ball Fighters, Gundam Versus, etc. borrow popular cartoon characters so that they can be relatively simple fighting game content based on familiar content or stories from cartoons. The immersion in the game was further enhanced by adding In addition, fighting games, such as Soul Calibur, that are differentiated from existing fighting game graphics that can be relatively crude through character customization or detailed character expression, are also being released.

In addition, the expansion of the mobile application market along with the development of mobile technology and the popularity of mobile games provided an opportunity for fighting games, which were mainly played on arcade machines, game consoles, or PCs in the past, to enter the mobile platform as well as the existing market. Therefore, fighting games provided on mobile devices are not only stimulating the nostalgia of existing players who have been familiar with fighting games as arcade games, but also are trying to secure new young consumers with easier access and frequently updated content. .

However, despite the diversification in various aspects such as graphics, content, and platform, the most basic characteristic of all fighting games is that the win rate of the game varies greatly depending on the control ability of the player. In other words, the biggest feature of fighting games is that the hitting rate changes depending on how skillfully the player manipulates the control keys to freely adjust the character and uses various skills, and the victory or defeat of the game is determined. As there are game competitions, it is an essential element in fighting games.

However, since games that require complex controls or use many functions at the same time are often provided as mobile games with simplified controls, the fun of playing fighting games provided on mobile platforms is halved due to the simplified controls. there is
