The Fatal Fury series first hit the market in 1991, spearheading the fighting game boom of the 1990s that swept the industry thereafter. Garou: Mark Of the Wolves (released in 1999) has, for some time, served as the franchise's most recent installment.
Fatal Fury: City Of The Wolves features a unique art style that stimulates the senses, new and familiar characters in the fray, an innovative REV System that supercharges the excitement, and a host of other battle systems even more robust than before.
Iconic characters from Fatal Fury and Garou: Mark Of the Wolves are ready to rumble once again.
The REV System, a toolset making its Fatal Fury debut, offers unique offensive options from when the battle begins. Players can use REV Arts, REV Accel, REV Blows (while S.P.G. is active), and more until you hit your limit and the REV Meter overheats. Balance your heat level and keep the pressure on your opponent to fight at full throttle!
Many classic Fatal Fury battle systems are back in full force, including Combination Attacks, Just Defense, Braking, Dodge Attacks, and Feints. These systems return to the fold after more than 25 years and have evolved for the modern day. Buckle up for red-hot action and competitive fights to the finish!
Players can choose from two control schemes: Arcade Style is based on precise, technical inputs, while Smart Style lets you perform flashy special moves and combos using directional inputs and single button presses. From fighting game newcomers to seasoned veterans, everyone will be tricked out with the right controls — tailored specifically to your level.
SNK CORPORATION announced that Kim Kaphwan, the third DLC fighter for Fatal Fury: City Of The Wolves Season Pass 3, will join the roster on September 24, 2026.
Kim Kaphwan, Korea's finest taekwondo master, debuted in Fatal Fury 2 (1992). Convinced that taekwondo is the world's strongest martial art, he fights sinister forces with a fierce sense of justice and an undying belief that "evil is unforgivable." This strength of character, coupled with his tremendous taekwondo skill, has made him a beloved series mainstay for decades. Even then, he has never been playable in the same game as his sons, Dong Hwan and Jae Hoon, until now.
Kim Kaphwan, Korea's Finest Taekwondo Master
- Voice Actors: June Yoon (EN), Kunihiro Kawamoto (JA)
- Bio: A legendary taekwondo fighter whose feats inspire Kim Dong Hwan and Kim Jae Hoon to this day. Though widely lauded as a master of his martial art, his drive never fades; indeed, even now he trains tirelessly in pursuit of greater strength. His justice-fueled kicks, undeniable and unforgiving, strike down evil without a moment's hesitation.
Kim Kaphwan in Arcade Mode and Episodes of South Town (EOST)

Family bonds and personal convictions intertwine in this charming episode.
