Hello everyone! I’m Yasuyuki Oda, the producer of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. Together with the dev team, we’re excited to dive into how you can leverage the REV System to face even the toughest adversaries. We’ll also showcase some impressive combos and talk about our plans for the Season 1 Pass DLC characters. So, without further ado, let’s get you geared up for the epic world of Fatal Fury!
### Get the Edge with the REV System
The secret to turning a losing battle into a victorious one lies in mastering the REV System. REV Arts are there to enhance your special moves, while REV Accel is your ticket to creating dazzling combos and keeping your opponent on their toes. You can also go on the defensive with the REV Guard button (R1) to fend off opponents and boost your winning chances. It’s activated with a single button press, making it perfect for predicting and thwarting cross-ups. This technique is particularly effective against Kain’s Schwarzes Rondo setups or aggressive moves following B. Jenet’s Gulf Tomahawk break. By pressing REV Guard, you can simultaneously execute other actions, like escaping a grab with a well-timed counter or using a hop to skillfully evade trouble. Try incorporating REV Guard into your wakeup routine for extra protection in your battles.
