• Terry Bogard.
• Andy Bogard.
• Mai Shiranui.
• Blue Mary.
• Geese Howard.

Fatal Fury: King of Fighters arrived in arcades in 1991. Before City of the Wolves, the latest installment was Garou: Mark of the Wolves, released in 1999.

SNK's separate The King of Fighters franchise started as a crossover fighting game featuring Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting. Characters from both remain fixtures in the long-running series.

Fatal Fury also inspired three anime releases:

• Fatal Fury: Legend of the Hungry Wolf OVA in 1992.
• Fatal Fury 2: The New Battle OVA in 1993.
• Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture in 1994.

Masami Ōbari designed the characters for all three and directed the third anime. Discotek Media has released all three titles.
