11. Power Rangers: Super Legends (DS)
Power Rangers: Super Legends doesn't represent a huge jump in quality from the beat 'em up titles that preceded it, though there are some marginal improvements to the combat and traversal to make things feel a little smoother.
The introduction of Rangers from multiple timelines is a nice touch for longtime fans of the series, but the game won't feel particularly new for anyone who picked up one of the GBA titles. Unless you're a huge fan of the Rangers, this is probably a safe one to skip over.
10. Power Rangers Zeo: Battle Racers (SNES)
A rare example of a Power Rangers game that isn't a beat 'em up, Power Rangers Zeo: Battle Racers deserves credit for standing apart from the crowd. This racer might appear like a Super Mario Kart clone on the surface (and, for the most part, it is), but the additional Battle Mode adds a touch of fighting gameplay for those who want to mix things up between circuits.
The end product is neither a top-tier racer nor a top-tier fighter, but it's always nice to have a bit of variety, eh?
9. Power Rangers S.P.D. (GBA)
One of the dime-a-dozen Power Rangers beat 'em ups on Game Boy Advance, S.P.D. does little to stand out from the crowd.
There are some fairly rudimentary straight-road driving sequences and a strange Space Invaders-style shooting level to mix up the gameplay in marginal ways, but overall, this is another cut-and-paste tie-in from THQ and Natsume. But you can play as R.I.C. the dog, so that bumps things up a notch.
8. Power Rangers: Dino Thunder (GBA)
And here we have another straightforward beat 'em up from Natsume based on the 2004 TV series of the same name. While things are slightly more adventurous in the GameCube port, Power Rangers: Dino Thunder on GBA is another serviceable, if unremarkable, entry in the franchise.
With standard beat-em-up gameplay broken up by the occasional MegaZord battle and tile-sliding puzzle, there's still plenty to get out of this one, and you might even prefer the side-scrolling take.
7. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (GB)
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie on Game Boy shares all the same hallmarks as its SNES counterpart, but the drastically reduced graphic limitations, smaller levels and fewer stages (six instead of the SNES' seven) certainly harm it
It's difficult not to see it as a watered-down experience, but again, there are far worse experiences out there for Power Rangers fans, particularly if you love the first generation of the Rangers.
6. Power Rangers Ninja Storm (GBA)
The third Power Rangers GBA beat 'em up from THQ, Ninja Storm is another fine entry that doesn't bring anything particularly new to the table. All six Rangers are playable, each with their own unique special skills, and a little bit of variety in the levels depending on which Ranger you pick. Every boss level concludes with a quick time event Megazord battle, too.
There's just enough here to help Ninja Storm on GBA stand out, making it one of the more enjoyable Rangers games.
5. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind (Switch eShop)
Considering how Power Rangers games have more often than not been middling-to-poor, Rita’s Rewind is a pleasant surprise. It’s been given a lump sum of love and attention from a development team at one with the source material. And, if its obvious polish wasn’t enough, it’s a game that really understands the arcade format and goes all out with dazzling Super Scaler action stages that work well to stave off the genre’s naturally repetitive nature.
There are a few aspects to the combat that could have been tweaked, but with its humour, lengthy 15-stage campaign, multiplayer hijinks, and heavy-duty '90s charm, Rita’s Rewind is probably the best Power Rangers game we’ve ever played.
4. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition (SNES)
While it might not live up to its SNES contemporaries, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition is a brave swing for the Rangers on a home console. This dials the Zord battles from previous games up to 11, butting the giant 'bots head-to-head in classic fighting fashion.
The combat isn't all that varied, but there is a good range of fighters to choose between, three different game modes including a story and a standard two-player face-off and the sprite work ain't all that bad either. It's no Street Fighter II, but hey, it's a decent-ish Power Rangers game.
3. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (SNES)
Much of what made Mighty Morphin Power Rangers special would be improved in the 1995 movie-based sequel, but this isn't a bad first attempt to bring the Rangers into the video game space.
The SNES version of this game is the bigger of the two Nintendo versions; all five fighters are available across its seven beat-em-up stages. The gameplay is much the same level-to-level, though there is a climactic MegaZord battle to make it all worthwhile.
2. Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid (Switch eShop)
Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid isn't some cheap tie-in with the old franchise – at least not in the sense of its core mechanics and gameplay. Running at a smooth 60fps on Switch with lots of modes to play through and support for ranked and casual bouts online, it's a decent fighter, even without the licence.
However, an ugly approach to content accessibility leaves this game feeling frustratingly spartan for anyone who doesn't invest in the season passes. It's proven fairly popular over the years, fortunately, as it is easily one of the better Rangers games out there.
1. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (SNES)
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie builds on its 1994 SNES predecessor in a handful of meaningful ways. There's multi-plane combat, two-player co-op, and a player-controlled Morphin ability that lets you stay in civilian form for longer (if you so wish).
Like many other Rangers' games, the gameplay is a little repetitive, with most levels following the exact same structure, but it was a mighty fine step in the right direction for fans of the 1995 film and TV show.
Well, there it is, every Power Rangers game as ranked by you! If you reckon that the list requires some Morphin' of its own, be sure to share your thoughts on any of the above by leaving a star rating and see if the ranking changes.
After that, why not take your own personal Megazord down to the comments and let us know your favourites?

Today I have discovered that there are Power Ranger games, more than 20 no less.
The fact that 17/21 of these games have a player rating below 7/10 makes me suspect I may not be missing out on too much. 🤔
It always impresses me just how many super specific game franchises have dozens of games.
The #1 entry contains a weird sentence in the second paragraph.
Doesn't seem like I've been missing out on much. None of these seem to be on the same level as some of the best Ninja Turtles games, if one were to compare them to anything.
I have Wild Force on the GBA. It could be difficult at times (that Forklift Org boss always gave me grief), but it was a mostly enjoyable experience. It definitely had decent replay value in trying to unlock all the Zords to create new Megazord combinations.
I just don't know why Toxica used her powers to revive and make the Master Org grow to gigantic size when she had already been defeated in the game, and also the fact that she turned against him in the show by the time he assumed his final form.
Battle For The Grid really should be #1 to he honest... The SNES movie game is ok, but fairly unremarkable and not as good as Fighting Edition. Battle For The Grid and Fighting Edition are the closest the series has gotten to games that are good on its own merits regardless of the licence. Both are very good fighting games.
@Bonggon5 I was big into it as a kid (mainly Wild Force and Ninja Storm), but by the time Dino Thunder rolled around, I lost interest. That being said, I would not mind watching more of Time Force, especially since the actor who played the Red Ranger in that season, Jason Faunt, is from my hometown. We even attended the same high school! Although, he graduated in 1992, before I was even born.
Really hope the new one will blast past the rest of the entries in the series. Going through the previous games actually makes me less interested in the upcoming game! So much shovelware…
But really I do hope the new one is the first to push an 8/10 or better for me in the series.
Battle for the grid is way too high on this list!
It should be last
The ONLY reason it is as high as it is, is because of the costumes/characters in it.
It is a bad fighting game. Controls are horrible. Movement is stilted.
Backgrounds aren't varied. There are like three of them.
Even buying the game is a pain in the butt!
Too many editions to choose from and the character DLC is also too confusing. Some are unlocked with certain editions some only in a pack and some individually but if you buy some, you need to purchase them again to get others.
Some are no longer available.
@Bonggon5 if you were old enough to comprehend the feeling of something being cringe then im guessing you were too old. I was 6 and i remember it being soo awesome. The robots and transform power, and them being able to get retransformed into a trex. It was wild back then. But yes i would not watch it as an adault
@Bonggon5 Most seasons are a bit cringe but some of us watch it for the actions. There are a few that does had great story build-up such as PRiS, Time Force, Dino Thunder, SPD, and RPM but in-between those there are also cringe fest such as Turbo, Operation Overdrive, and Megaforce/Super Megaforce.
Never really played any power Ranger games
But Battle For The Grid is very good 😊
Are any of these ports of the brilliant Sega Genasis game?
Sure looks like pretty much all these games suck. Fascinating.
@marandahir
No
@marandahir
That’s the one I remember playing as a kid. I liked it at the time, although Sonic 3D - of all games - was the one that held my interest then.
The only other Power Ranger game I played was on the PC sometime in the late 90s. I remember the first level being in the city and ended with you on the rooftops. The second level was in some factory or something and was extremely dark. I never was able to get past the first part of that level.
I had no idea there were so many!
@DrewBA77 Ironically, it repeats a word in the act of accusing the game of being repetitive.
There's a Ranger game on the PS4 that I wish was on Switch.
Great list, but it’s missing the best Power Rangers game of all, the Game Gear game.
@HOUSE
This is only for Ninty releases
@Spider-Kev oh ok. That makes sense.
I’m still holding out hope that if Rita’s Rewind does well enough it convinces them to do a cowabunga collection style collection of the 16 bit and portable games. I believe the Sega Genesis MMPR game was published by Sega themselves, not sure if the same is true for the movie one and the Game Gear ones, but I’m sure they can work with Sega on those rights. I’d love to have the SNES, Genesis, GB, and GG MMPR games all in one place on the Switch. Also throw Zeo Battle Racers in there as I never knew that game existed and Zeo still has most of the same team from MMPR so it would make sense to put it in the Zeo game as well

"I'll never understand people who like comic books as adults."
"I'll never understand people who like animated movies and TV shows as adults."
"I'll never understand people who like dressing up for Halloween/conventions as adults."
"I’ll never understand people who like video games as adults."
No game for the Dino Charge series - the single greatest piece of art ever created, but looking at this list maybe it’s no bad thing.
I want to mention Choujin Sentai Jetman for famicom. Although it's super sentai, it's really a good game compared to most game in this list. And I consider jetman as power ranger predecessor as it's popularity made power ranger what we know today.
The Genesis version of the movie clears 99% of this list. Also prefer the SNES MMPR over the Movie. Also the Game Gear games are solid too. Seems really weird not to include those games.
@Bonggon5
Some of the shows have fun characters, fights, awesome music and cool looking robots. Also the especially from the early seasons have great fight scenes given they were doing their own stunts
