If you have played Garou: Mark of the Wolves, you should have an overall idea of what to expect. There have been changes made with the addition of the REV Gauge and the various REV mechanics. The T.O.P. mechanic has been redone as the S.P.G. mechanic. This gives you access to a new REV Blow which can be used as a defensive to offensive attack switch, extend combos, or as a new combo ender. With the new REV Gauge, you can use REV Arts which changes up some moves with new powerful versions and some new hit effects. Also is used for REV Guard which stops you from receiving chip damage. When in the S.P.G. part of your live gauge, you get access to REV Blow, which I explained above. All of these moves add Heat to the REV Gauge and when maxed, it puts you into Overheat so none of those features can be used until it cools down all the way. Just Defense is in this game as well. Block with perfect timing just before the attack hits to avoid taking damage, reduces block stun, and reduces the Heat from the REV Gauge. Hyper Defense is like Just Defense except it only works against combos. You press towards just before another attack is about to hit your block of Just Defense style block. This restores a little health, gives you a massive advantage to a counter, and lowers the Heat on the REV Gauge. You have access to Online with Crossplay, Arcade that has story scenes for every character and a secret boss fight if you beat the Lv. 5 AI without continuing, Tutorial that breaks the mechanics down that I explained, Missions (Character Combo Trials), Survival against 100 AI controlled opponents with the last 15 having a full health bar S.P.G., Time Attack against the 15 standard characters, and Versus mode which includes two styles. There are also two control types with Arcade being the normal format and Smart which is the simple mode for new comers.

This Deluxe Physical Edition of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves is an absolute gem for collectors and fans of the series. The packaging is gorgeous, and the bonus content makes it feel like a true celebration of SNK’s legacy. You can tell real care went into this release—not just the game itself (which plays like a dream), but the extras too. The art, the finish, everything screams premium. Marco is my main, and the game runs flawlessly on PS5. If you're a fan of fighting games, this is a must-own—especially if you appreciate physical media done right.

Came out exactly on the day for release. Everything was in excellent condition. Nothing much to really say, but I've been wating for this game since its first announcement & i can't believe it's here !

Interesting graphics, I'm still learning the game but so far it's okay.

Gameplay is smooth and simple, similar to SF6 but more complex specials: though thats how SNK games usually are. Only gripe so far would be the small cast of characters but more may arrive with DLCs. A good place to start for newcomers and a solid entry to the Fatal Fury lineup.
