Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’re counting down our picks for the Top 10 Power Ranger Games. For this list, we’ll be looking at the instances these coordinately coloured heroes morphed out of the Grid and into some amazing video games. Did we miss any “morphenomenal” titles? Let us know in the comments!

#10: “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition” (1995)


This might be the only Ranger game without any spandex. Instead of controlling everyone’s favorite bunch of teenagers with attitude, this puts the player in control of Zords for wacky, mash-worthy fun. The sprite work is gorgeous, and the controls are surprisingly responsive, which makes laying waste to Lord Zedd more fun than ever before. Better yet, Zedd isn’t a mere boss character, he’s playable alongside some other noteworthy villains, including the secret unlockable Ivan Ooze. If anything, this is worth checking out just for its outstanding 8-bit soundtrack that remixes the classic opening theme for maximum nostalgia. With this much fan-service, we hardly missed the Rangers.

#9: “Power Rangers Dino Thunder” (2004)


The Rangers are no stranger to side-scrolling beat-em-ups, but this charming handheld made a compelling case to save the tired routine from meteoric extinction. In a major leap of evolution, the Dino Rangers weren’t just mashing buttons through waves of enemies anymore. There was light puzzle solving, platforming sections, and, of course, the classic Zord fights to help break up the monotony. These worthwhile additions and refined gameplay also came with a ton more content, like the hidden collectibles that incentivized exploration over barreling through the quickest path. It’s safe to say these dinos brought the thunder in more ways than one.

#8: “Power Rangers Time Force” (2001)


It’s surprising it took as long as it did to get a true 3D brawler in the series, but this was well worth the wait. This title offers fun and intuitive combat, a worthwhile single-player experience, and, best of all, voice acting from the original live-action cast. This is one of the earliest Ranger titles to genuinely feel like an extension of its source material, instead of just the newest season’s name slapped on another generic fighter. Its gameplay is charming and hilarious with just the right amount of jank, especially in multiplayer, to keep fans coming back until the end of time.

#7: “Power Rangers S.P.D” (2005)


In their most daunting missions yet, Space Patrol Delta was tasked with resuscitating a gaming franchise that had grown incredibly stale with lackluster beat-em-ups. But, as the final Ranger title on GBA, this standout side scroller built on “Dino Thunder’s” foundation to amazing results. The various playable Rangers had their own unique moves and abilities that genuinely encouraged experimentation for the first time. Alongside the improved combat, the title was densely packed with fun content, boasting hidden paths, classic Zord brawls, a space-invaders like minigame, and even racing segments. It’s easy to sink hours into its litany of engaging modes, and single handedly brought a pulse back the series’ gaming prospects.

#6: “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie” (1995)


Following the solid groundwork laid by its predecessor, this movie-tie-in sequel improved the formula in basically every way with more characters, more levels, and more fun. Notably, this one of the only games that lets you duke it out as the unmorphed Rangers. Earning the morpher by defeating enemies makes donning the costumes more rewarding than ever, especially since it pays off with a stylish in-engine morphing sequence. However, the real shining Zord here is the co-op, which fills the screen with all the goofy chaos befitting a Ranger title. Whether it’s decimating enemies with friends or just mashing through story mode, you can’t go wrong picking up the morpher for this one.

#5: “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (1994)


Not to be confused with the Sega Genesis title that has the same name, though there’s plenty of fun to be had there, too. The Game Gear version is the definitive edition of the original run of Ranger titles, upgrading what came before with even more spandexed action. It took the series’ previous 1 vs. 1 fighting game mechanics and added it to a more accessible story mode with tons of levels and enemies. Don’t worry, you can still unlock everyone’s favorite Green Ranger as a playable character, too. By taking what made the previous “Mighty Morphin’” titles great, but simply adding more, this is by far the most complete package fans of the original series can get.

#4: “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Mega Battle” (2017)


This spiritual successor to the classic side-scrollers of Ranger history did more than just throw a fresh coat of paint on. Right off the bat, the stylish character designs and fluid animations make even the idle poses interesting to look at. The combat itself is simple but satisfying, especially paired with several quality of life features like a mid-match progression system. But, what really morphs this title to Megazord height is its four player co-op. With the ability to indulge in the colorful, mashy carnage with more friends than ever before, the classic beat-em-up formula has never been so fun.

#3: “Power Rangers: Legacy Wars” (2017-)


When it comes to bang for your buck, it’s hard to top a game that’s free to download on most any smartphone. The novel card-based gameplay rewards aggressive strategy and clever resource management, and is always a blast thanks to the staggering 100-plus character roster, each with their own unique attributes. New skins and characters are constantly dropping - and sometimes, it’s not even the Rangers. Ever wanted to see Ryu or Chun-Li from “Street Fighter” kick some Ranger tail? Well, this game has you covered. With generous gacha elements and continuous updates, there’s always a good reason to revisit the Morphing Grid.

#2: “Power Rangers: Super Legends” (2007)


Story and Ranger games have never quite fit into the perfect Megazord, but this time around there was a noticeable effort at justifying the universe-hopping shenanigans with a fully-structured narrative. The comic-inspired cutscenes and excellent voice acting give the plot some genuine weight reminiscent of the most iconic crossovers from the main series. The gameplay is breezy and easy to understand, but stands above its predecessors thanks to a fully-fleshed out co-op mode and a respectable roster of 20 Rangers from several seasons. As a celebration of the franchise’s 15th anniversary, this is the first title that captures the spirit of not just the newest Rangers on the block, but the series as a whole.

#1: “Power Rangers: Battle for The Grid” (2019)


At launch, this 3v3 fighter drew justified criticism for its paltry lack of content, but its accessibility across the most platforms of any Ranger title ever paved the way for an incredible amount of post-release support. Since its debut, the game has received a full story mode, new stages, DLC characters, and more. By now, it boasts a deep roster of characters from ten seasons and counting, including some from the 2017 film and the fan-favorite “Boom” comic. Better yet, its deep mechanics, crossplay, and excellent online netcode have earned it a genuine competitive scene in the wider fighting game community. It's been the little Zord that could, and at this point, is truly a celebration of Ranger history like none other.
