Descpription:
The game retains the character roster from Fatal Fury 3,
with the boss characters (Ryuji Yamazaki, Jin Chonrei and Jin Chonshu) now playable.
Returning characters Duck King, Billy Kane and Kim Kaphwan are added to the cast.
Series' antagonist Geese Howard reprises his role from the original Fatal Fury as the game's
final boss. The game was Geese Howard's final appearance in the Fatal Fury canonical
storyline, as the game's ending with Terry or Andy depicts the character's demise at the
hands of either of the Bogard brothers by falling off the roof of his tower.
This was reflected by SNK's tag line for the game, "So long, Geese!" (Saraba, Gisu?).
Geese's appearances in Real Bout Fatal Fury Special and Real Bout Fatal Fury 2
are not taken into account due to the "dream match" nature of those games, whereas
the King of Fighters series follows a different continuity from the Fatal Fury games.
Geese's death in the game is depicted in the opening intro for Garou: Mark of the Wolves.
