But with the exception of the duo, which characters are set to be featured in the game’s main roster? Here are all the characters confirmed to be present in Fatal Fury City of the Wolves.

All Fatal Fury City of the Wolves confirmed characters

Apart from Terry and Rock, B. Jenet, Preecha, Vox Reaper, Marco Rodrigues, Hotaru Futaba, Tizoc, Kevin Rian, Billy Kane, and Mai Shiranui are confirmed to be part of the Fatal Fury City of the Wolves main roster. According to SNK, the game will have a total of 17 playable characters at launch, with five more already confirmed to be released during its first DLC season. You can che🔜ck 🦩out an overview of each of the confirmed characters, as well as their trailers below.

Rock Howard

Terry’s protegee and Geese Howard’s son, City of the Wolves marks Rock’s second outing as the series’ co-protagonist. Like in Garou: Mark of the Wolves, he seems to be a rushdown character capable of excelling by both keeping opponents in check and closing the distance fast. As you can see below, he still retains his original moves, as well as the ones🌃 learned from Terry and inherited through his blood.

Terry Bogard

It wouldn’t be a Fatal Fury title without the Hungry Wolf, am I right? Not much is known about Terry’s story within the game, except for the fact that he spent years fighting after he and his disciple went their separate ways in the previous entry. As you can see below, he seems to continue his streak as the ideal all-rounder, being able to fit both aggressive and more reactive playstyles.

Preecha

Making her debut in the franchise, Preecha is both a talented scientist and Joe Higashi’s pupil. She makes use of an adapted form of Muay Thai in combat and as we could expect, seems to play similarly to how her master does. You can check out her gameplay in the trailer below:

Hotaru Futaba

One of the best characters among the Mark of the Wolves roster, Hotaru Futaba returns, this time set to once and for all get her older brother back. As their stories are deeply intertwined, her summary all but confirms Gato as part of the game’s main roster. You can check out Futaba’s moveset in the trailer below.

Tizoc

A soon-to-be main for many of the King and Zangief players we all love to face, Tizoc also returns in CoTW. Now back into♏ the ring for good, The Griffen Mask joins the newly announced KOF tournament to lift the spirits of one of his fans. You can see🍌 a glimpse of his moveset in the trailer below:

Marco Rodrigues

City of the Wolves marks Marco’s first appearance in any SNK game since 2006’s SNK Vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash DS. Once more mak𒉰ing use of Kyokugen Karate, the Brazilian sensei enters the new KOF tournament in the hopes of both recovering his stolen Dojo sign and spreading the word about his fighting style.

B. Jenet

A fan favorite since her debut in Mark of the Wolves, it was clear that B. Jenet would return on CoTW. This time, the captain of the Lillien Knights joins the KOF tournament for a chance to face both Grant and Kai again. As you can see in the trailer below, she seems to have access to most of her previous moves. But she won’t be limited to them, as showcased by the counter that took the internet by storm since her reveal.

Vox Reaper

An assassin for hire, who is taken under Grant’s wing after failing to kill Mark of the Wolves‘ villain Kain R. Heinlein, Vox Reaper features what I can only call a caffeine-infused version of his master’s playstyle. His motivation in the game seems to be to both honor Grant’s wishes and see Kai’s ambitions fulfilled.

Kevin Rian

A MoTW top-tier whose fighting style mixes grabs, heavy hits, and a lot of explosions, Kevin Rian returns in City of the Wolves. His goal? To find Freeman —the man responsible for the death of his best friend. Like with Gato and Futaba, his summary heavily hints at his rival’s presence within the game’s main roster.

Billy Kane

After being left out of the previous entry, Billy Kane and his bo staff are back. Now the leader of the Howard Connection and carrying the responsibility of keeping his master’s empire alive, Billy joins the tournament for one reason above all, to hunt the Legendary Hungry Wolf.

Mai Shiranui

The heir to the Shiranui-style ninjutsu, Mai returns to the Fatal Fury franchise after her unexpected exclusion from Mark of the Wolves. Now donning a new look and using an even more refined version of her explosive fighting style, she arrives in South Town after following an important tip-off from Sokaku Mochizuki. Although their stories have been deeply intertwined since Mai’s debut, it’s still unknown if Andy will be featured as part of the game’s base roster.

When is Fatal Fury CoTW being released?

Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves will be released on April 24, 2025. The game will be available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. If you cannot wait, those who preorder the title will be able to play it three days early. Doing so will also get you access to a Fatal Fury 2 DLC costume for Terry.
