While not every Super Smash Bros.-inspired game has seen the same success as Nintendo's efforts, the LEGO franchise is making its own attempts with LEGO Brawls. This LEGO fighting game has been available on iOS devices via the Apple Arcade service for the last few years, but now the game is making its way over to other consoles and PC later this year.
