Hello, gamers! Yasuyuki Oda here, stepping in to give you the lowdown on what’s in store with Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. I’m the producer at the helm of this project, and we’re eager to dive into the details, especially about how to leverage the REV System. Whether you’re warding off fierce adversaries or executing show-stopping combos, we’ve got you covered. We’ve also got a sneak peek into the first season of downloadable content, packed with dynamic new characters. Let’s gear up and get you ready to dominate in Fatal Fury’s exhilarating universe!
The REV System is your secret weapon on the path to victory. It’s all about enhancing your play style through its unique mechanics. Take REV Arts, for instance; they supercharge your special moves, adding a new dimension to your gameplay. On the flip side, REV Accel is perfect for creating jaw-dropping combos and keeping your opponents on their toes. Not only is it a tool for offense, but the REV Guard feature (triggered by pressing R1) is there for a solid defense. It lets you fend off attacks and potentially turn the tables on your challenger. This becomes particularly handy against certain strategies, like Kain’s Schwarzes Rondo setups or Jenet’s aggressive Gulf Tomahawk attacks. By holding the REV Guard, you can simultaneously execute other maneuvers, like breaking free from grabs or strategically hopping out of tight spots. Remember, activating REV Guard during wakeup might just save your skin.
Let’s talk combos, shall we? What better ambassadors for this than the iconic returning legends: Mai Shiranui, Rock Howard, and Terry Bogard. With our guided walkthroughs, mastering high-level combos is within your reach, whether you’re facing off against friends or challenging global competitors online.
For Mai Shiranui aficionados: Start with a close neutral HK, transition into a Feint, move seamlessly into a neutral HP, and then break with HP Hana Arashi. Follow with a REV Ryuuenbu into REV Sayo Chidori, advance into an HK Hissatsu Shinobi Bachi, and continually break it with REV conditions. Finally, your execution should culminate with Kagerou no Mai.
For those channeling Rock Howard: Start off with a close neutral HK, proceed with a Feint, descending into HP. Initiate a REV Hard Edge and complement it with REV Rage Run Type: Layup. Secure it with an HP Rising Tackle, then kill it with an HP Reppuu Ken, followed by a REV Rising Tackle, and wrap up this intense sequence with Raging Storm.
Finally, Terry Bogard’s combo breakdown: Begin with a close neutral HP, slide into → HP and follow it with a Feint. Transition into a distant neutral HP, execute a REV Burning Knuckle, chase it with REV Crack Shoot, then activate HK Power Dunk. Break it with REV Power Charge and unleash a REV Burning Wave. Cap it off with a REV Power Dunk, and just before you touch ground, perform a REV Blow leading to the stunning Cosmic Strike Geyser.
The first season promises plenty of excitement, bringing five diverse characters into the mix. First, the long-awaited return of Andy Bogard, who will see him deploying a lethal blend of Koppo and ninjutsu. And there’s Hokutomaru, offering a similar style for those eager to get their bearings before Andy becomes available.
Joe Higashi, our spirited Muay Thai master, is more than just a friendly face. Joining Terry and Andy, this trio embodies the legacy of Fatal Fury. Expect Joe’s return to be nothing short of spectacular for fans of this storied saga.
Enter the enigmatic and formidable Mr. Big from the Art of Fighting series, wielding bojutsu and street-fighting prowess to keep challengers on their toes. And that’s not all; prepare for an epic crossover as Street Fighter’s own Ken and Chun-Li step into the Fatal Fury arena, blending universes and offering unforgettable battles.
