Item Description:
Released in 1995, Brutal: Above the Claw is an enhanced port of the Sega CD fighting game Brutal: Paws of Fury. Featuring a cast of martial-arts-trained animals, it blends traditional 2D fighting gameplay with a unique sense of humor and stylized cartoon presentation. Characters like the rabbit fighter Tai Cheetah, the ferocious panther Prince Leon, and the goofy yet deadly Kung-Fu Bunny each bring distinctive movesets and personalities to the roster.

The 32X version improved on the original with sharper graphics, faster animation, and two new playable characters: Chung Poe and Psycho Kitty. Gameplay emphasizes learning special moves through a dojo-style progression, giving it a different feel compared to arcade-focused fighters of the era. While not as refined as genre giants like Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter II, its quirky cast and distinctive style have made it a cult favorite.

For collectors, Brutal: Above the Claw holds extra significance as part of the short-lived Sega 32X library, which had fewer than 40 official releases. That limited catalog makes every complete title for the add-on desirable, and this game in particular stands out for its colorful presentation and offbeat charm. A CIB copy is a great way to preserve one of the more unusual fighters of the 16-bit era — and a piece of Sega’s bold but brief 32X experiment.
