SNK Corporation has revealed fresh gameplay footage for Kim Jae Hoon, the first downloadable character arriving in Season 2 of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. If you’ve been waiting to see how the next wave of fighters will shake up the roster, this new look gives a clear taste of what’s coming and why Kim is being positioned as Season 2’s opening statement.
Season 2 launches January 22 on all platforms, and it kicks off with Kim Jae Hoon. The timing is great for players who want a reason to jump back in, tighten their combos, and prepare for a new matchup that’s built around pressure, precision, and strong fundamentals.
Kim Jae Hoon is a taekwondo specialist and the son of Kim Kaphwan, carrying forward the family’s reputation with a style defined by careful observation, disciplined training, and crisp execution. He’s inherited his father’s near-flawless technique along with a powerful sense of justice that drives him forward. But his story isn’t just about living up to a legacy—it’s also about identity. Kim’s direct, no-nonsense offense stands in sharp contrast to the more whimsical approach of his older brother, Dong Hwan, leaving him caught between two ways of fighting and two ways of defining himself.
That internal struggle shapes his resolve. Wrestling with doubts about self-worth while refusing to back down from what he believes is right, Jae Hoon sets out to punish evil wherever it appears in South Town. His goal is clear: earn his place and prove himself on the biggest stage by aiming directly for the legendary King of Fighters tournament.
For voice talent, Kim Jae Hoon is voiced by Howard Wang in English and Shunichi Toki in Japanese.
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves has been available since April 2025 on Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5, and Season 2’s arrival on January 22 makes this an ideal time for fighting game fans to revisit the game and prepare for the next competitive shift.
