Body Blows is an Amiga versus fighting game. It was released in 1993 by Team17. The game is compatible with all Amiga systems, including the CDTV system with joystick support. It was followed by Body Blows Galactic and Ultimate Body Blows. A version for DOS was also released. The game has a lot of similarities to Street Fighter II, for example, both had two characters with projectile, rising uppercut and spinning kick special moves and played identically (as with Ryu and Ken).

There are three modes of play in Body Blows:

There are 11 characters in Body Blows. In one player mode the player can choose to play as 1 of 4 characters, Nik, Dan, Junior or Lo Ray. In other modes players can select from 10 of the characters in the game.

Body Blows is compatible with Amiga 500, 500+, 600, 1200, 2000, 3000, 4000, and CDTV systems. It requires at least 1MB of RAM and can utilise extra memory that's installed on the system. It has four channel stereo music, speech and sound effects. The game features full PAL screen scrolling at 50 Hz and 32 colour graphics. It cannot be installed to a hard drive.
