SNK has released Kenshiro, the crossover fighter from the anime FIST OF THE NORTH STAR, as a Season 2 DLC character for FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves, available starting today. The publisher also confirmed that Season 3 will begin in July 2026.
What’s new with Kenshiro
Kenshiro is described as a user of “Hokuto Shinken,” built around fast, heavy strikes combined with status changes and combo potential triggered by pressure-point strikes (secret pressure point attacks). He is voiced by Shunsuke Takeuchi in Japanese and Clayton Alexander in English.
Alongside the new fighter, SNK added Kenshiro’s own story content to both EOST MODE and ARCADE MODE, the modes that let players experience character-specific stories.
Kenshiro is the sixth and final character in Season Pass 2, joining Kim Jae Hoon, Nightmare Geese, Blue Mary, Wolfgang Krauser, and Mr. KARATE. All six Season Pass 2 characters are now available.
