SNK recently unveiled a new trailer highlighting Hotaru Futaba, one of the characters in “Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves,” which they have been gradually revealing through trailers. The anticipated game, featuring veterans like Terry Bogard and Billy Kane, is set to launch early in 2025 following this series of previews.

First introduced in 1990, the classic fighting series from SNK, Fatal Fury, has made a comeback with Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. This was announced at EVO 2022 and sparked great excitement among fans. The title “City of the Wolves” is reminiscent of Garou: Mark of the Wolves, a highly acclaimed game in the series that was released in 1999. The new 3D graphics model suggests some intriguing changes in gameplay, along with new characters and much-awaited returns for fans. It’s anticipated that Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves will take over SNK’s major appearances at fighting game events like EVO Japan 2025, potentially replacing The King of Fighters 15 in these events.

To generate excitement for the game “Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves”, SNK has been unveiling trailers showcasing its character lineup, the newest one featuring Hotaru Futaba – a young woman seeking her late mother’s whereabouts and her missing older brother. In keeping with her character from “Garou: Mark of the Wolves”, Hotaru employs Chinese martial arts, specifically soft kung fu styles such as Tai Chi and Baguazhang. Her techniques are swift and appear delicate, but they conceal a hidden intensity, demonstrating impressive bursts of power when channeling chi energy.

So far, twelve warriors have been confirmed for the Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves lineup. Among them is a newcomer, Preecha, who’s making her first appearance in this series. Although there isn’t a dedicated trailer out yet, it won’t be long before SNK shares a sneak peek of Preecha in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.
