Introduction to the two-lane battle system
Hello gaming enthusiasts! Today, we are thrilled to introduce you to the captivating new two-lane battle system featured in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, the much-anticipated return of the iconic series after 26 years. Set to launch on April 24 for Xbox Series X|S, this game promises to elevate the fighting experience.
What is the two-lane battle system?
The two-lane battle system is designed to enhance gameplay by introducing two distinct lanes—foreground and background—on selected stages. This innovative approach allows players to switch lanes dynamically during combat, adding layers of strategy to both offensive and defensive maneuvers. The interaction between lanes opens up a plethora of mind games, where each player’s position influences the available moves and tactics.
How to engage with the new battle mechanics
To experience the two-lane battle system, start at the nostalgic Dream Amusement Park “Morning” stage, the sole location featuring this mechanic at launch. Players will initially face off in the same lane but can switch by pressing X and RB simultaneously. For those looking to add flair to their attacks while switching, combining A and RB unleashes a special jumping lane switch attack.
Strategies for mastering lane switches
Once players find themselves in different lanes, they gain access to an array of special attacks tailored for each position. If you prefer staying grounded, pressing X executes a grounded lane switch attack, placing you alongside your opponent. Alternatively, pressing A or B allows for aerial attacks during lane switches, while Y initiates a special lane pullback attack, pulling your opponent into your lane.
Combos that utilize lane switching
The mechanics also enable players to integrate jumping lane switch attacks into combos, leading to exciting cross-lane interactions. For instance, a sample combo with the character Rock could be executed as follows:
X → Y → A + RB → B → Heavy Rising Tackle (Brake) → Heavy Hard Edge
Experimenting with lane switch attacks during combos is encouraged, as it can drastically enhance your gameplay strategy.
Embracing the nostalgia of Fatal Fury
The two-lane battles are a hallmark of the Fatal Fury franchise, originating from the very first game released in 1991. We are excited to bring this beloved feature back in City of the Wolves. Additionally, this battle system is integrated into the training mode, allowing players to explore and develop creative strategies to maximize their effectiveness. Classic fans will appreciate the return of what makes Fatal Fury stand out among fighting games, while newcomers can dive into the exhilarating chaos of two-lane battles.
