Hey everyone! I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about the latest addition to the iconic Fatal Fury series, making a splash with a thrilling new feature for Xbox Series X|S. Meet Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, where the dynamic Two-Lane Battle system makes its triumphant return after 27 years!
Battle On Two Lanes
Now, let’s dive into what makes this installment stand out. The Two-Lane Battle system brings a fresh twist to your combat strategy. Picture this: you have a foreground and a background lane on select stages. With the right attack, you can seamlessly transition between these lanes, mixing up your tactics and keeping your opponents guessing. This opens up a myriad of strategic maneuvers, with offensive and defensive plays that will push you closer to victory.
But how does it work, you ask?
Begin by selecting the Dream Amusement Park “Morning” stage—currently the sole venue offering Two-Lane Battles, with more exciting stages set to join in the future. You’ll start by facing off on the same lane, with the freedom to shift lanes by hitting X and RB simultaneously. Want to attack while making the switch? Press A and RB together for a slick special move.
Once you and your opponent are in separate lanes, a whole new world of special attacks awaits. Stay grounded with X for a lane switch that brings you face-to-face with your rival, or take to the air with an A or B jumping switch. For those moments you want to pull your opponent into your terrain, Y will pull them back to your lane.
The beauty of this system is how it integrates into your moves. Execute cross-lane combos with a jumping lane switch attack mid-combo to elevate your game strategy.
Let me give you a sample combo with Rock that showcases the potential: X → Y → A + RB → B → Heavy Rising Tackle (Brake) → Heavy Hard Edge. The possibilities are endless!
The Old in the New
For the veterans out there, the Two-Lane Battle feature will feel like a nostalgic embrace from the past, first seen back in 1991. We’ve incorporated it into training mode too, inspiring creativity and new tactics. Long-time Fatal Fury fans can rejoice in the essence of what sets our series apart, while newcomers can dive into the exhilarating chaos that defines the Two-Lane Battles.
We’re ecstatic to bring this legendary series back to life with Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, available for Xbox Series X|S. Keep up with all things Fatal Fury by following our official X account or dive into the community on our Discord server.
