When asked about why now was the best time for Fatal Fury to return, Oda remarked that he wanted to bring the series back sooner, before then mentioning that the idea stems from a larger initiative to bring back franchises represented in The King Of Fighters.

“KOF has become our all-star game, and it was the only series that was really alive for a long time,” Oda said via a translator. “The origin of KOF, of course, is all of the other games it brings together, so I want to go through and bring all of these other original IP back as much as possible.”

Speaking of KoF, Oda also confirmed that more downloadable fighters will be coming to The King Of Fighters XV, though specific details on how many and release timing are still in discussions.

Fatal Fury: City Of The Wolves releases in early 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
