SNK has just shadow-dropped a “modernised re-release” of its 1998 one-on-one fighter, Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers<\/a> on Steam.<\/p>\n

This new release comes with “smooth rollback netcode, online lobbies for up to nine players”, a practice mode “complete with speed settings, record-and-replay options, and a hitbox viewer for more robust training,” and a gallery mode featuring 59 pieces of Fatal Fury art and media.<\/p>\n

“Players can throw down in local matches (1-2 players) or test their skills worldwide in competitive online tournaments of multiple formats, including single elimination, double elimination, and round robin,” says SNK. “Players can also observe others\u2019 matches via Spectator Mode.”<\/p>\n
