Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves Reveals Rick Strowd as First DLC Fighter
Rick Strowd joins Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves as the first DLC fighter on July 23rd.
SNK has unveiled what's coming next for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, the fighting game that marked the series' return after more than twenty years away. A new trailer previews Rick Strowd, who will arrive as the opening character in a planned six-month rollout of fresh fighters.
Rick Strowd launches on July 23rd as part of Season 3, kicking off a steady cadence of character additions that will continue through the end of the year. It's a measured approach to post-launch support—one new fighter per month, giving the community time to learn matchups and settle into the game's rhythm before the next arrival.
Since its April 2025 debut across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, City of the Wolves has been building momentum as a genuine new entry in SNK's long-running series rather than a remake or remaster. The game's return is significant for fighting game fans who've watched the franchise lie dormant, and the steady stream of new characters suggests SNK is committed to keeping players engaged over the coming months.
For those who've been with Fatal Fury since the beginning, or who've picked it up recently, the addition of fresh faces to the roster means there's always something new to explore—new combos to discover, new matchups to master, new reasons to return to the ring.
