Fist of the North Star’s Kenshiro is Coming to Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves in June

The cast of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves is going to have its hands full this June, with Kenshiro making his way to South Town and bringing his trademark martial arts style from his anime appearances with him.

In case you aren’t familiar with this absolute powerhouse from the Fist of the North Star anime/manga, he’s quite handy with his fists, capable of some very nasty beatdowns via the use of some moves that target opponent pressure points to cause maximum damage. We expect that he’s going to be a melee character with some excellent mix-ups and high-damaging combos that can be hard to get out of as his knowledge of techniques long-forgotten brings some serious firepower to the arena.

It’s going to be quite interesting to see how Kenshiro measures up against other playable characters like Nightmare Geese and Blue Mary. Kenshiro’s addition to the roster as part of the game’s Season 2 DLC is certainly welcome, but it isn’t exactly what we’d call a surprise, considering that he’s been anticipated for a while now.

Nevertheless, he’s looking as stoic and awesome as ever in an interesting callback to that teaser from earlier this year. Check out the latest trailer below.
