It's neither. It's not similar enough to traditional fighters (Street Fighter, Soul Caliber, ect.) to be in the same genre, but it certainly isn't a platformer. Instead, it created it's own genre, the Brawler.

*coughs*

Yeah, it's a fighter with platforming elements.

How so?

Look at the definition of BRAWLER before coming up with a stupid genre.
