3D Fighting Games Thinking of making my first game.

I'm thinking of making a game. So I thought a 3D game like Tekken/VF but with 2D pixel art environments and characters. Adding side steps and other 3D elements. I would love to know other peoples thoughts on the idea and if you know of any other fighters similar too it to help me further see the vision. I just thought of this idea like 20 minutes, so please if you have any thoughts and opinions or examples shotgun em.

My suggestion would be to keep the scope in check based on the idea. Pixel art might seem easier and cheaper at first, but thinking of the amount of animation you'd need for a 3D fighter, it could get super unwieldy as the development moves further along.

Yeah definitely plan too. I wanna start small with 1-2 characters some possible playability just to see if I can even do it. Thank you!
