FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves has found a new lease on life with its recent appearance at the SNK World Championship 2025 qualifier at Evo Las Vegas 2025. The upcoming release of Ken Masters from Street Fighter will bring in fresh hope for the struggling title, but two major issues still linger.
The player count has remained relatively low, and the meta is not well-balanced, with a disproportionate number of Billies and Kains dominating top-level events. However, the addition of Ken to the roster brings much-needed diversity to competitive matchups.
SNK’s efforts have paid off as the game secured a 1.5 million dollar prize pool for the World Championship. The game will also be part of the Esports World Cup until at least 2027. Top esports players like Ronaldo are set to support the event, making it a major part of their plans.
For fans eager to watch FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves in action, Evo Las Vegas 2025 has got you covered. The stream is available now, and viewers can also catch the official character breakdown video for Ken Masters on August 3rd.
The tournament results are as follows:
– DetonatioN FocusMe takes first place

GO1 emerged victorious in the grand final, defeating ET in a thrilling match. The top 8 brackets feature notable competitors from the DBZFighting community. As GO1 qualifies for the SNK World Championship 2025 Finals, the spot goes to ET.
