Status Confirmed Type: Badges: Researching Year Origin Mane6 Tags,,,,,,,,,,,,, Additional References About My Little Pony: Fighting Is Magic was a two-dimensional crossover fighting game project featuring the characters of the television program and the mechanics from the Street Fighter video game series. Designed by a team of nine bronies known as Mane6, the production of the game came to a sudden halt in February 2013 due to a cease and desist order from Hasbro. It has since been unofficially completed in the form of a Tribute Edition by fans, and remade into a game with original characters named 'Them's Fightin' Herds'.
Origin Development of the game began in the spring of 2011, in the time between the first and second seasons of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, after one of the lead developers Anukan uploaded four mock screenshots for a Street Fighter-style fighting game featuring several MLP characters to the now-defunct image-sharing site Ponibooru. After the screenshots made their way to the MLP-specific Ponychan, a user known as Nappy contacted Anukan about actualizing the project, and soon four other community members, Jay Wright, Lucas Ellinghaus, James Workman and Prominence, were on board. On May 31st, 2011, an official thread for the game was started on the Ponychan /collab/ (Collaborative Projects) board, which announced its goal to develop 17 total playable characters as well as online play. Gameplay The game mechanics proposed for the title were similar to those used in Street Fighter, with each character featuring a unique move set based on their personality in the show; for example, Twilight Sparkle’s attacks focused on books while Fluttershy’s attacks focused on animals. Each character also had a dedicated stage with unique music created specifically for the scene, such as Twilight Sparkle’s library and Fluttershy’s cottage.
Spread Throughout the summer of 2011, various discussion threads surrounding the project appeared on a number of and MLP fandom communities, including the Equestria Forums, Dustloop, Equestria Gaming, G4 and IT World. On June 19th, 2011, the first trailer for the game was released, earning nearly a million views before being taken offline in February 2012.

Mane6 released an official statement on their website, removed as of February 19, 2013, saying, 'The unfinished version of Fighting is Magic is, needless to say, unsupported. We won't answer any questions relative to it, we won't give technical support to it, we won't discuss mechanics or graphic details from it, given its status as a leaked, unfinished, internal testing build, which happened to be leaked just right before a major update was pushed to our now closed QA test program.' Evolution Championship Series In January 2013, it was announced that Fighting is Magic was to be showcased in an exhibition at the Evolution Championship Series (EVO), an annual fighting game tournament held in the United States, later that year. The staff also learned that the game was in the running to be part of one of the eight official tournaments at the event.
