In an unexpected collaboration, Cristiano Ronaldo, the famous CR7, joins the roster of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves as a complete and independent character, and not just as a cosmetic for another fighter.
This collaboration will bring the soccer star into the world of fighting games in a very peculiar way, as Cristiano Ronaldo will be a fighter in his own right.
The soccer player will use a mix of martial arts combined with soccer moves to face the tough rivals awaiting him. However, there is an important detail: Cristiano Ronaldo will not have his own voice within the game, being voiced by Juan Felipe Sierra.
The Football Icon Becomes a Fighter
The description of CR7 as a character in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves is as follows:
One of the top football players in the word.
He uses his time off to visit South Town to hone his new football skills. The various techniques he has developed playing football make him an unstoppable force, even to seasoned fighters.
Cristiano Ronaldo will feature a powerful moves set, but with average agility, aiming to make him comfortable for all players, from novices to veterans. This decision aims to attract a new audience to the game, making the experience of playing with CR7 as accessible as possible.
Cristiano Ronaldo – Character Profile.
While these types of collaborations have become common in service games, especially in Battle Royales (where we have seen celebrities like Snoop Dogg in Fortnite and Warzone), the curious thing about this collaboration is seeing a football player like Cristiano Ronaldo in a Japanese fighting game.
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves will be released on April 24, 2025, on PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. If you decide to pre-order it, you will receive a 3 days early access and an exclusive outfit for Terry Bogard, inspired by his appearance in Fatal Fury 2.
