More details about few anime PvP games in terms of PvP mechanic:

Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet


There are 2 types of PvP arena, named Hero PvP and Avatar PvP.
Hero PvP is something similar to Overwatch. There are so many choose-able premade characters from its anime. One thing to note is that the game is quite balanced so there is not too much difference among the characters in terms of capacity (OPness). The actual win or loss depends on your skill and practice. Meanwhile, Avatar PVP is somewhat similar to the most MMORPG's PvP. You level up and gear up your character, customise skills and create builds, and fight in avatar PvP with your own characters. That means you will need to farm the items. Both PvP modes allow maximum 8 people in a battle.

Phantasy Star Online 2


PvP content in this game is very simple comparing to other anime games' PvP arena. There is only a level and gear equalized PVP arena. You don't necessarily level up and farm the item in order to perform better in this game's PvP. But it is not about selecting premade character as hero pvp in Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet. You will need to wander around the arena, pick up the item on the ground, and you fight using that item. If you want to change weapon, you can simply more wander around and get another item to replace the current one. And fight against enemy team using those weapons. There is only one game mode, which is team deathmatch.

Kurtzpel

Kurtzpel has several game modes, deathmatch, CTF, and domination. While there are many types of game modes, the game isn't gear-equalized so that you will still need to farm through PvE. Also You will need to create build (a combination of Karma you choose out of many selections) in order to perform well.

Super Mecha Champions


Super Mecha Champions is first anime battle royale genre game. This provides you to fight with your own anime character and mecha. You can switch the mode between your character and mecha. Generally using mecha is way OPer than using your own character, however, not always because battlefield is quite large that is hard to recognize small-sized character and they have likely 1.5~2/3 overall damages of mecha's, so damage made by characters are still somewhat effective without mechas so that you don't always need to use mecha. You will be using both of them depending on the situation. I think this game has the most PvP population among all anime games as of October 2021. Again, only PvP population is considered.

If you look for anime PvP games that have a form of open world PvP:
Currently there is no such anime games providing a open world PvP, including anime MMORPG games. However, Super Mecha Champions is very close to open world PvP though, because of its battle royale genre.

If you look for anime PvP games that have a eSports League or tournaments, regardless of their popularities:
Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet
Kandagawa Jet Girls
Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. Maxi Boost ON

These 3 games are frequently chosen to have an esports league/tournaments by AEG and ESL. Again, this list excludes 1vs1 fighting games.

A List of upcoming anime PvP games, or anime games that will have PvP:
Project Gamm (TBA)
Gran Saga (TBA)
Inazuma Eleven: Great Road of Heroes (around 2021~2023)

One thing that we are very sure, as of 2021 October, there is no anime game community centered around anime PvP games except this community. We expect that there will be not so many anime PvP games newly releasing in the future so that it will become much harder to play anime PvP games. This is due to the success of the Genshin Impact: this is because it showed and actually proved that how PvE anime games can succeed without having competitive contents inside the game. Because it had so much success, I expect that many other game companies are also likely to make anime games excluding pvp contents in the future. This means, if you really like to play anime PvP games, we really hope you would like to stand with us in order to play anime PvP games together. Make them more popular by supporting with us, so that we can see more anime PvP games in the future.

If you have been playing the anime world, then I am sure that you must be one of anime fans. You will see amazing stories and characters in any anime movie or series so it is essential for people to enjoy this type of entertainment. There are many different types of animated movies out there but unfortunately not all of them appeal to all the people around the world. People who watch these shows usually have their favorite character. So if you happen to love the art form of manga and anime, then your best bet would be to try some of the best anime games that involve strategy and action. Anime games provide an exciting multiplayer experience because they feature thrilling gameplay, interesting story lines and fantastic graphics which can satisfy even anyone’s wildest imagination. Just like other online fighting game, an anime fighting games also has various modes to play including team death match, king of the hill, capture the flag, last man standing, knockout, etc. However one mode of particular interest is PVP.
