Icons: Combat Arena was a free-to-play platform fighting game designed by Wavedash Games.
Two years following the end of support for Project M in December of 2015, the team behind this initiative to make a better SSBM set their sights on a new project.
Taking heavy inspiration from Super Smash Bros. Melee, Icons: Combat Arena had the potential to be a hit, but a rough launch with a lukewarm reception from the fighting game community and questionable monetization choices eventually led to the tragic downfall of this title.
