PHIGHTING! is a class-based third person shooter released on ROBLOX and developed by the small development team boggio. Currently in alpha stages, it first debuted to the public on 19 February 2022 with the release of Playtest 1. As of currently, PHIGHTING! has achieved 35,045,200 visits, 293,267 favorites and over 100,000 likes on the ROBLOX platform.

Setting

PHIGHTING! takes place in the Inpherno, a planet which resides in a universe known as the Inphinity. The Inpherno is mainly inhabited by inphernals, a race of horned humanoids who are born with a gear that they use to phight one another with. The Inpherno is split into four factions, each with their own territory, all converging into a communal city called Crossroads in the center.

The game currently takes place in 3099 AR, with the supplementary comic Death in the Family taking place a few months before the events of the game, in the same year.

Crossroads is the location of the game's hub world, which players use to access the PHIGHT! Lobby, vote in Phestivals, interact with NPCs, buy skins, and hang out with other players.

Phighters, their gear, NPCs, factions, maps, and other locations in the game are based on various established concepts from the ROBLOX platform, primarily from the years 2008 to 2014. Maps are — with few exceptions — faithful reinterpretations of ROBLOX games created prior to 2014; once popular, they have been abandoned by their creators and players. The gear that inphernals are based on are all real gears that are, or once were, available in the ROBLOX Catalog.

Phighters

PHIGHTING! currently has 15 playable classes for players to use within in-game matches, known as Phights, with 21 planned upon full release. The classes are known as Phighters, and are split into the categories of Melee, Ranged, and Support. Each Phighter has their own unique abilities, filling different niches of battle and encouraging varied team compositions in both casual and high level play. Each Phighter has a special move called a Phinisher, which can turn the tides of battle when used.

Each Phighter is an individual character with their own design, backstory, lore, and relationships with other characters. Phighters will converse with one another during gameplay with pre-set dialogue triggered by specific conditions, providing a great deal of intractability and entertainment for players. This aspect of PHIGHTING! is greatly inspired by other games in the genre, such as Team Fortress 2 and Overwatch.
