Fatal Fury 2

Fatal Fury 2 (Japanese: Garou Densetsu 2: Arata‑Naru Tatakai) is SNK’s 2D fighting arcade title released December 10,1992 for Neo‑Geo MVS hardware, the direct sequel to the original Fatal Fury. It marks the debut of iconic characters Mai Shiranui and Kim Kaphwan, and laid the foundation for Fatal Fury Special. The story follows Terry, Andy and Joe as they enter a tournament hosted by Wolfgang Krauser, Geese Howard’s powerful half‑brother who seizes control of South Town after Geese fakes his death. It refines the signature two‑plane battle system for foreground‑background evasion. The control scheme shifts from 3‑button to 4‑button light/heavy punch‑kick layout, and introduces the legendary Desperation Move: high‑damage reversal specials usable only when health flashes red. Eight playable fighters are available, with a boss ladder including Billy Kane, Axel Hawk, Lawrence Blood and final boss Wolfgang Krauser. Enhanced sprite art, animations and soundtrack. Widely ported to home consoles, playable via MAME arcade emulators.

These are the default keys. Every arcade board has a different number of buttons and means different things by them. The rows above are buttons 1–6 on the board: on Neo Geo boards (The King of Fighters and friends) A/B/C/D are buttons 1–4, Metal Slug uses only 1, 2 and 4 (shoot / jump / grenade), and Pac-Man uses none at all. Six-button fighters with three punches and three kicks (Street Fighter II and the like) get a different layout from the core: light punch U, medium punch I, heavy punch Q, light kick J, medium kick K, heavy kick E. Click the gamepad icon 🎮 in the player toolbar, then “Remap keys” to open the emulator’s own control settings (keyboard and gamepad, saved automatically). Gamepads are detected automatically. On phones you get on-screen buttons.
