Fatal Fury City of the Wolves - Hokutomaru

After announcing Cristiano Ronaldo and Salvatore Ganacci as fighters in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, SNK has unveiled the final launch roster member – Hokutomaru. Playable in Garou: Mark of the Wolves, Andy and Mai’s pupil makes his return. Check out some of his moves in the trailer below.

Hokutomaru has effectively moved from the mountains to South Town, and despite taking time to adjust, he’s keen on helping people. As a practitioner of Shiranui ninjutsu, he’s capable of dashing forward and striking enemies, throwing shurikens on the ground and in mid-air, and diving at opponents.

His Ignition and Redline Gears remain more or less the same, but his Hidden Gear mixes Mai’s techniques with his own. If you’re looking for a fast character with strong hit-and-run tactics, Hokutomaru could be it.

Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves launches on April 24th for Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC. Special Edition owners (which is everyone since no other edition is available) gain three days of early access on pre-purchasing.
