Many are excited for "One Punch Man" Season 2 and the launch of the mobile app. While fans wait, Inquisitr provided available games that could remind themselves how awesome the anime series is.

"One Punch Man" easily became a hit in 2012, when the original manga, the "One Punch Man" webcomic, became viral and hit over 7.9 million hits overnight. Not long after, "One Punch Man" was adapted into an anime by Madhouse and it aired in Japan from October to December 2015. It has become such a success that last July that earned its English dubbed versions and earned a spot in Adult Swim's Toonami block, according to Nerd Span.

Anime News Network reports that One Punch Man Season 2 has been confirmed. It was announced last October 23 at the One Punch Man Fall Festival event that the season 2 of the series is already in the works. Alongside the Season 2 release, the staff also announced that the series will be getting its smartphone app next year.

As of now, no new information has been revealed pertaining to the Season 2 of One Punch Man nor the mobile app, except for that the launch date will be sometime next year. So as we wait for more updates on that front, Inquisitr scoured some One Punch Man-inspired games that can amuse you for the mean time.

One of the earliest One Punch Man-inspired games is this One Punch Man game over at Scirra Arcade. Created by cademan in December 2015, the game information reads as follows: "Just as One Punch Man is a spoof of action anime, this game is that same spoof translated to having Saitama in a fighting game. It's a short game and has bugs but it's just a proof of concept. If you put Saitama in a fighting game, this is what you would get."

Basically, you play as Saitama and you one-punch your way out of the enemy death sprites. We will not spoil the ending for you since it is a very short game but it's a game that speaks for itself: this is literally how a fighting game would look like if you placed Saitama in it.

Another short and sweet One Punch Man-inspired game is One Punch Arena. One Punch Arena was created by ManHandle and published on Scratch, a project of the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab, where millions of creative projects have already been shared. Use the mouse to move, left click to dash, and press the spacebar to punch. With a boss fight at the end.

Also suggested was the "Fallout 4-One Punch Man" crossover by EzPlays. EzPlays basically re-enacts the final battle between "One Punch Man" Saitama and Lord Boros using Fallout 4 mods.
