Nani?
Well, this is a bit unexpected, but it appears as though we may now know another character who could be on their way to Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves — and he’d be a very unexpected guest.
SNK just dropped a very interesting teaser animation with no explanation, but the implication seems pretty clear.
While we can’t say for certain yet, it’s looking like the famous / infamous Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star / Hokuto no Ken is probably coming to Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves Season 2.
The start of the animation appears to show Geese Tower in the distance followed by a familiar looking boot stepping onto the screen.
A younger boy and girl are seen cowering from some goons before she exclaims “wait is that?” and then one of the thugs takes one finger to the forehead with a bunch of electric effects.
This type of scene should look pretty familiar to Hokuto no Ken fans, and that means the poor gangster is probably “already dead.”
Although he’s a more deadly fighter than most South Town characters, Kenshiro would make a pretty fitting crossover for Fatal Fury.
This isn’t the first animated teaser we’ve received recently either.
SNK previously dropped another animation that implies Wolfgang Krauser is coming to City of the Wolves too, who himself has a very Fist of the North Star aesthetic to him.
The latest Fatal Fury is already no stranger to guest characters since it launched with soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and DJ Salvatore Ganacci, which many fans weren’t exactly pleased about.
But SNK also added Street Fighter’s Ken and Chun-Li in the Season 1 DLC roster too, and it looks like we’re getting at least one more crossover for the second year.
The developers have confirmed that Fatal Fury Season 2 begins this month, so we should be learning more about the incoming DLC characters very soon.
You can see for yourself if you think the man, the myth, the deadly martial arts legend is coming to South Town below.
