Fatal Fury: Legend of The Hungry Wolf
Not to be confused with the 1992 TV special with the same name



Fatal Fury: Legend of The Hungry Wolf, known in Japan as Garou Densetsu: FATAL FURY (餓狼伝説フェイタル・フューリー Garō Densetsu Feitaru Fu~Yūrī), initially teased during EVO 2022 and later announced to be "furiously" in development during EVO Japan 2023, is the brand new upcoming installment in the Fatal Fury series after Garou: Mark of The Wolves back in 1999. Unlike SNK's previous titles since The King of Fighters XIV, it will be more focused heavily on singleplayer content, such as a fully playable story mode. Additionally, Legend of The Hungry Wolf will also have a more realistic approach in terms of artstyle. The game is yet to have a set release date, but is rumored to release in Q1 2026, and will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC (via Steam and Epic Games). The online experience will include crossplay and rollback netcode. Legend of The Hungry Wolf will also include voice language options for Japanese, English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese and Korean.

Game Mechanics
Legend of The Hungry Wolf is confirmed to see the return of the Fatal Fury franchise's iconic plane shifting system, where both players can shift between the foreground and the background for strategic fighting and avoiding attacks. Additionally there will also be a brand new mechanic that acts similarly to the King of Fighters series' MAX Mode. Finally, there will also be a brand new system that acts similarly to Street Fighter 6's drive system, as well as, similarly to said game, the ability to switch between classic and modern control types.

That's right, the Capcom Vs.

Ratio System
When creating your team, you have to allocate Ratio Points among your characters that will have a total of four points. Your team can consist of one to three members. Possible combinations are one Ratio 4 character; two Ratio 2 characters; one Ratio 1 and one Ratio 3 characters. A member with higher ratio points allocated has increased offensive and defensive capabilities, thus a greater chance of survival. A player of two characters can beat a player of three characters, and even three characters can beat a single character team. It's all in skill and strategy! So create your own team wisely!

Groove Points System
There is a large counter at the top center of the screen known as the Groove Point Counter. As you trade blows with the enemy characters, your Groove Points go up or down depending on how you fight. The total points steadily drop by 0.5 Point after 10 seconds of each match has elapsed. Performing special maneuvers and finishing your opponents with special moves or Super Combos is also a great way to boost your score. One of three ratings flash whenever you land a blow or get hit by the opponent, which are further discussed below. SP : (Super) Attack or maneuver earns 1.0 point and higher. GD : (Good) Attack or maneuver earns less than 1.0 point. PR : (Poor) Groove points decrease by 1.0 point. At the end of each match, the number of ratings are given certain score multipliers and bonus points which are further added to the player's real score. Hefty bonus points are awarded for unscathed victories (Perfect), beating the opposing team with one character (Straight), and beating the entire team without taking any damage (Perfect Straight).

Grooves
Of course, we will also see the inclusion of the Capcom Vs. SNK series' iconic grooves system. The grooves will give you various different advantages depending on which specific groove you select.
