Introduction

Fatal Fury Special (餓狼伝説SPECIAL in Japan) is the updated version of Fatal Fury 2 for the Neo Geo MVS (Arcade), and Neo Geo AES (Home Console). Notable changes to the game include faster gameplay and the addition of combos. All characters from Fatal Fury 2 return, with bosses Billy Kane, Axel Hawk, Laurence Blood, and Wolfgang Krauser now being playable in addition to Duck King, Tung Fu Rue, and Geese Howard from the original Fatal Fury, with Geese acting as a sub-boss to Krauser. Ryo Sakazaki, the main character from Art of Fighting, appears as a secret boss and is playable in the home versions of the game.

Fatal Fury Special has been released on many different systems, but this wiki is solely focused on the Neo Geo versions and "arcade perfect" ports.
