Fighting Layer is a 3D arcade fighting game developed by Arika and published by Namco. It was released exclusively in Japan in December 1998 and has neither been released overseas nor ported to home consoles nor PC.

Despite not officially being part of the Street Fighter series, the game has ties to the Street Fighter EX games (also developed by Arika); mainly through its gameplay and two EX fighters (Allen Snider and Blair Dame) who appear as playable characters.

The gameplay system is similar to that of the Street Fighter EX games, with mechanics such as Super Cancels and Guard Breaks.
