Melee Attack or Close Combat is a form of attack that can be executed by playable characters and some enemies, too. It is the opposite of ranged attacks, as the character fights by being close to the opponent. Some characters have simple shoulder charges, while other have combo attacks consisting of 3-5 different moves.

Damage Increase

Damage Increase upgrade.

Melee Attacks always have one or more Damage Increase upgrades in the Skill Tree. Some characters also have Block Breakers, Power Attacks, and Strong Finish' that can be unlocked by upgrading their Skill Trees.

Block Breaker[]

Block Breaker

Block Breaker upgrade.

A Block Breaker is an attack done by holding in the 'attack' button. This makes the Character do a powerful attack, that breaks an opponents block. When enemies are about to do a Block Breaker, they flash, as a warning to the player. Block Breakers can either be a single move, or a combo with three different moves that can be ended early. Block Breakers can also be done by most Weapon Packs, regardless of Skill Tree upgrades.

Timed Attack[]

Also known as Delayed Attack or Breaking Defenses, this is an attack done by pressing the Attack button a certain amount of times, pausing, then pressing it again to use a more powerful attack. This was first introduced in 2.0, where if you attack any amount of times, wait, then attack again, you will perform the last hit of your combo attack. This was implemented further in 3.0, making them do entirely different attacks. There are typically three in a character's skill tree, the first being after the first attack of the combo, the second being after the second attack of the combo, and the third by delaying the second attack of a mid-air combo, but there are a few others. These can also be used by equipping any weapon Pack (like the Lightsaber or Sword.)

  • Han Solo's "Solo's Strike" attack is the only Timed Attack to be performed after the third combo hit.
  • Anger's Power Attack has his fists emit blue effects as if performing a Timed Attack, while none of the other Inside Out characters do.
