Garou: Mark of the Wolves Hits Mobile
It’s time to tape up your fists and get ready for a visit to Southtown, as Garou: Mark of the Wolves once more blasts onto smartphones with a new rerelease out now on iOS and Android! This SNK classic is coming roaring into 2024 with an arcade-quality version as the ACA NEOGEO version of Garou finally hits mobile.
SNK is arguably the dark horse of fighting games. While they don’t boast the global recognition or success of series like Street Fighter or Tekken, they arguably have just as great and unique a catalogue of series, with top names like King of Fighters, Fatal Fury and Samurai Shodown all garnering huge cult recognition over the years.
Garou: Mark of the Wolves is part of the Fatal Fury line of games, and while it was released for mobile way back in 2015, it hasn’t been in the best state since. But as part of their line of ACA NEOGEO games ported in partnership with Hamster Corporation, you can now play Garou: Mark of the Wolves on mobile in the most authentic way yet!
Bark at the moon
While it’s not the easiest difference to nail down, essentially the ACA NEOGEO versions of SNK’s games seem to focus on reproducing the original NeoGeo releases of the games, which often sold themselves on being the same as the arcade. The NeoGeo of course was an extremely expensive console, with massive cartridges that were for all intents and purposes the same as the boards used in actual arcade cabinets.
