As Mai Shiranui prepares to join the roster of Street Fighter 6 (set for release on February 5, 2025), SNK is actively preparing for the arrival of Fatal Fury City of the Wolves. The company announces that an open beta will be available from April 20 to 24, 2025, which will likely result in a surge of gameplay videos and analyses within the VS Fighting community and among SNK fans. For SNK, this period serves as a critical phase for testing the online experience on a large scale to address essential aspects before its official release on April 24, 2025. SNK has specified that eight fighters (out of seventeen at launch) will be playable during this open beta, although their names have not yet been disclosed. We hope Mai is among the selected characters for comparison with Street Fighter 6’s version. Here are the key points to know about this upcoming open beta:
February 20th to February 24th, 9 AM – 8:59 AM. Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 Game Modes: Online – Ranked Matches, Casual Matches, Room Matches; Offline – Training Playable Characters: 8 in total – More information to come
