First seen in Garou: Mark of the Wolves, Hokutomaru is the young disciple of Andy Bogard and Mai Shiranui. His fighting style is considered a fusion of the two, using Mai’s weapon throwing and Andy’s Kuhadan.

With the next competition approaching, the young man plans to join to test how much he has grown after leaving the mountains.

In addition to the 17 fighters, SNK has already confirmed the Fatal Fury: City of Wolves Season 1 pass, with Andy Bogard, Joe Higashi, Chun-Li, Ken, and Mr. Big to join the game at a later date.
