• Bio: After the previous tournament, Andy Bogard and Mai Shiranui’s young pupil, Hokutomaru, traded his home in the mountains for the bustling metropolis that is South Town—with Terry’s help, that is. Despite having to grapple with the ups and downs that is “life in the city,” the fledgling Shiranui fighter spends a great deal of time wondering how to use his abilities to help those around him. With the latest tournament now close at hand, Hokutomaru decides it’s the perfect opportunity to see how he has grown.

The FATAL FURY series debuted in 1991, igniting the fighting game boom of the 1990s that took the industry by storm. GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES, released in 1999, has been the most recent installment in the franchise until now. With fan favorites and new characters making an appearance, FATAL FURY returns with a classic battle system evolved for the next generation of fighters. City of the Wolves introduces a stunning, comic-inspired art style that’s a visual treat for series fans, combined with fights fueled by the cutting-edge REV System to deliver dynamic matches.
