Fatal Fury: City Of The Wolves REV System & Gameplay Explained
SNK has released more info about its upcoming 2025 2D fighting game Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.
The upcoming sequel to Garou: Mark of the Wolves back in 1999 will be bringing back a bunch of old systems and mechanics, as well as add in new ones. Let’s break them down.
Old systems from Fatal Fury titles: Combination Attacks, Just Defense, Braking, Dodge Attacks, Feints, S.P.G./T.O.P. (Selective Potential Gear)—classic battle systems from the Fatal Fury series return after 25+ years, evolved for the modern day
New system: the REV system makes its debut here. This new system offers unique offensive options from the moment the battle begins! Use REV Arts, REV Accel, REV Blows, and more until you hit your limit and the REV Meter overheats!
Two control schemes: You have the classic Arcade Style with technical inputs (QCF or 234, etc.), and Smart Style which uses directional inputs and single button presses for flashy specials and combos. This is clearly influenced by Street Fighter 6’s Modern Controls.
In addition, there’s new gameplay with HUDs and the new REV meter courtesy of fighting game champion Justin Wong via his YouTube channel. The gameplay below showcases a lot, like the REV system letting you pull off special guards and “Alpha counters”, but as you keep doing this the REV meter goes up. When it’s full, you’re in Overheat state and you don’t have access to REV moves temporarily. Basically, you start the game with all your REV moves so you can use them whenever, but you’re encouraged not to keep abusing them lest you end up in an Overheated state.
Old systems like Feints, Braking, and Just Defense coming back to either help you offensively and style with combos, or just keep up your defenses so you’re at a frame advantage when counterattacking. S.P.G lets you place a highlight on your health bar; and gives you access to better moves and buffs as long as your life bar is at that particular segment of the S.P.G. Kinda like X-Factor in the Marvel VS games but in segments.
You can also access hidden special moves, which require you to be in S.P.G mode, have your REV meter at a high level, and 2 Super bars filled up. There’s a lot more gameplay below in the exclusive video, so do check it out.

A young girl searching far and wide for her older brother, who disappeared when her mother passed away. As luck would have it she would one day run into someone who looked very much like him, though he denied all knowledge of the matter. But that was then, this is now, and Hotaru still hasn’t given up: determined to fight the mysterious stranger again and convey her true feelings, she sets off into the unknown once more.
Voice Actors: Jalen K. Cassell (EN), Hikaru Hanada (JA)
An invincible symbol of justice who now makes his triumphant return to the ring. Despite hanging up his boots for a time, the joyous cries of the children in his corner spur him into action—and bring him back home.
