Beast Rizer Fighters

Petropolis Fighters (ペトロポリス・ファイターズ) is a fighting video game by Namco. First released in 1997 in arcades on Namco's System 12 model, the game pits players in one-on-one battles with a roster of characters from Petropolis. While the game was only released in the arcades, it did become a part of the Petropolis Collection for the Nintendo GameCube.

Story
A tournament has been announced across the Petro Islands. The sponsor of the tournament, a leopard named Lee, formed it so that the islands will feel more satisfied in their otherwise boring lives. Thunder and his friends decide to participate in the tournament, but unbeknownst to them, a mist suddenly surrounds each of the islands, likely infecting every beastman. When they saw this, Thunder and his friends enter the tournament to end the source, which will be a twist to the heroes.
