Get ready, fighters… The battle heats up as Season 2 of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves officially began on January 22, 2026!
With Season Pass 2, players can look forward to a lineup of iconic characters from the Fatal Fury series, along with two mystery characters yet to be revealed. New characters will be released monthly, keeping the excitement alive all season long.
Here’s the roster of six upcoming fighters:
Each character will be rolled out in stages, so stay tuned for more updates and surprises as the season unfolds!
Kim Jae Hoon is a fighter who wields the authentic Taekwondo techniques inherited from his father. Known for his elegant kicks, he excels in close- to mid-range combat, combining classic moves with new techniques that keep the opponent guessing on both the ground and in the air. His playstyle allows for continuous pressure, making him a formidable force in any match-up.
Let’s take a deeper look at his moves:
Hangetsu Zan
A powerful technique where Jae Hoon performs a cartwheel-like motion, delivering a crushing heel drop to his opponent. This moves shines as a ground-based assault attack, allowing Jae Hoon to advance forward or backward while maintaining pressure. Its long reach and high damage make it a formidable move.
Pro Tip: In combos, brake Ryuusei Raku and follow up with Light Hangetsu Zan to maximize damage and keep the pressure on!
Hien Zan
A powerful somersault kick that serves as an excellent anti-air option against air attacks. This move isn’t just for defense but also works great on offense. From Rev Hishou Kyaku, you can transition into Rev Hien Zan, creating opportunities to extend into a super move.
Versatile and reliable, this technique shines in both offensive and defensive play, making it a core part of Kim Jae Hoon’s move set.
Shakka Shuu
Jae Hoon lunges forward from a raised-leg stance to deliver a powerful strike. The Heavy and Rev versions have a guard point during the leg-raising motion, allowing him to absorb incoming attacks and counter aggressively.
The Rev version adds even more utility by launching the opponent on the final hit, creating opportunities for follow-up combos and extra damage.
Ryuusei Raku
A technique that starts with a low sweep, followed by a crushing heel drop. The sweep can be braked, making this move an excellent combo starter.
Pro Tip: After breaking, chain into Hangetsu Zan or fully execute the Rev version, then transition into Hisyou Kyaku with Rev Accel to maintain relentless pressure and extend your momentum.
Hisyou Kyaku
Jae Hoon unleashes a rapid downward kick, this move can only be executed midair, so you’ll need to plan your approach.
Jae Hoon has several techniques such as Ryusei Raku that launch him into the air. When you land the Rev version of these moves, be ready to follow up with Hisyou Kyaku for extra damage. Mastering this aerial follow-up is key to maximizing his potential.
Houten Kyaku (New Move)
Jae Hoon leaps upward and delivers a crushing heel drop. While using this move, he can avoid low-hitting moves and ground projectiles, making this a great counter. A versatile choice for both offense and defense, Houten Kyaku adds a fresh layer to Jae Hoon’s moves.
To celebrate the launch of Season 2, we’re also excited to announce a special package: Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves Legend Edition. This edition is designed for both long-time fans and beginners who are ready to play!
The Legend Edition includes:

Stay tuned for updates and surprises…!
