"FATAL FURY" Series' new generation title
This latest installment in the legendary fighting game series from SNK welcomes a new hero with Rock Howard, the posthumous successor of Geese Howard who was raised by the "Legendary Wolf" Terry Bogard, and a host of all-new charismatic characters with their own unique background story and goals.

A fully redesigned game system
"GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES" renews the series with the "T.O.P. System", a revolutionary game mechanic that can be set anywhere on the character's life-bar and gives the player access to a unique attack, significantly increasing the character's hitting power. Moreover, the "JUST DEFENDED" mechanic offers a multitude of bonuses to the player if he successfully blocks his enemy's attacks at the last moment. Finally, the "BREAKING" feature allows the player to cancel specific special moves with others for impressive combos and damage.

New features unique to this mobile port

Furthermore, this faithful port of "GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES" features a "PRACTICE" Mode, in which you can train all your moves and best combos, a "SURVIVAL" Mode, where you fight all the game's characters until your life bar depletes to zero. Finally, "GAROU: MARK OF THE WOLVES" is also compatible with the "Android TV" set-top box for an even more authentic gameplay experience.
