Knockdown & Get-Up Animation Pack

Bring realistic combat reactions to your game with the Combat Knockdown & Recovery Animation Pack.

This pack provides a complete set of animations for handling hits, knockdowns, ground states, recovery, and death reactions, allowing developers to build believable combat systems where characters react naturally to powerful attacks.

The animations are designed to support a full gameplay flow:

This makes the pack ideal for action games where characters can be knocked down, remain on the ground briefly, react to additional hits, and either recover or die.

All animations were carefully hand-crafted in Autodesk Maya, with clear body mechanics and consistent motion to ensure smooth integration into gameplay systems.

This pack includes 50+ animations, covering multiple knockdown styles and ground reaction states.

Each knockdown style includes a full reaction cycle:

• Knockdown
• Ground Idle
• Ground Hit Reaction
• Get Up / Recovery
• Death

This modular structure allows developers to build flexible combat systems with different outcomes after a knockdown.

Knockdown Variations Included

The pack features multiple knockdown styles to represent different types of combat impacts.

Included reactions:

• Front knockdown
• Back knockdown
• Left knockdown
• Right knockdown
• Heavy knockdown
• Push knockdown
• Spin knockdown
• Uppercut knockdown
• Downward knockdown

These variations allow characters to respond differently depending on the type and direction of the attack

Ground State Animations

After a knockdown, characters can remain on the ground briefly in different states.

Ground states include:

• Ground idle poses
• Ground hit reactions while down
• Injured ground states

These animations allow developers to create gameplay where enemies can be attacked while down or recover after a short delay.

Recovery & Get-Up Animations

Multiple recovery animations allow characters to stand back up after being knocked down.

Recovery types include:

• Standard get-up
• Directional get-up animations
• Heavy recovery reactions

These help maintain smooth transitions back into combat.

The pack also includes ground death animations, allowing characters to remain down and die after receiving additional damage.

This makes the pack useful for both combat knockdowns and final defeat sequences.

Root Motion & In-Place Versions

To support different development workflows, the pack includes:

• In-Place animations – ideal for gameplay systems where movement is controlled by code or physics.

• Root Motion animations – useful for cinematic knockdowns or gameplay systems driven by animation movement.

This gives developers flexibility depending on their project needs.
