Hello everyone! I’m Yasuyuki Oda, and I’m thrilled to bring you the latest on Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. As the producer of the game, I’m here with some exciting insights on how you can leverage the REV System to outsmart even the toughest adversaries. I’ll also introduce you to some striking combos and give you a sneak peek into our Season 1 Pass DLC characters. Let’s gear up and dive headfirst into the world of Fatal Fury!
## Master the REV System to Outplay Rivals
To turn the tide in your favor, mastering the REV System is crucial. The REV Arts give your special moves a power boost, while REV Accel helps you string together flashy combos to keep your opponent under pressure. On the defensive side, the REV Guard button (R1) is your best friend for fending off attacks and increasing your chances of victory. By pressing this single button, you’ll effectively counter moves like Kain’s Schwarzes Rondo and follow-ups from B. Jenet’s Gulf Tomahawk breaks. Plus, while holding REV Guard, you can mix in other actions like grabs or hops to evade an opponent’s grasp. Make it a routine to have REV Guard active when waking up in a fight to bolster your defenses.
