Three decades in the making — the legendary antagonist from Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture is finally stepping into the ring. SNK Corporation has officially announced that Laocorn Gaudeamus will join FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves as the sixth DLC fighter in Season Pass 3, landing on November 19, 2026. And he’s not just here to fight — he’s bringing his own story with him.

WHO IS LAOCORN GAUDEAMUS?

Laocorn was the primary antagonist in the iconic 1994 animated feature Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture. A direct descendant of the ancient warrior Gaudeamus and twin brother of Sulia, he is driven by a singular, all-consuming obsession: to gather the legendary Armor of Mars and transcend humanity itself, ascending to godhood.

“You shall die while cursing your own human weakness!” — Laocorn Gaudeamus

With his loyal Triumvirate — Jamin, Hauer, and Panni — at his side, he relentlessly hunts the armour’s scattered pieces. When he discovers the final fragment is the prize at stake in South Town’s King of Fighters tournament, he enters the fray personally. But will absolute power bring the divinity he craves… or something far beyond his control?

He makes history here — for the first time ever, Laocorn is playable in a video game, stepping from the silver screen into the fighting game arena.

MORE THAN A FIGHTER — FULL STORY MODES

Laocorn arrives with complete character integration:

• Arcade Mode — his own dedicated arcade ladder with unique dialogue and rival encounters
• Episodes of South Town (EOST) — a full story chapter exploring how the movie’s antagonist fits into the modern City of the Wolves timeline

Voice actors: Branden Loera (English) and Shin-ichiro Miki (Japanese)

WHAT TO EXPECT IN BATTLE

Laocorn brings overwhelming, explosive power to the roster — a character built around dominating space and crushing opponents with relentless offensive pressure. His playstyle reflects his portrayal on screen: a warrior touched by ancient power, capable of unleashing devastating bursts of energy that punish hesitation and shatter defences. Whether you love high-damage rushdown or commanding the pace of battle, Laocorn offers a menacing new option for Season Pass 3 owners.

THE TECHMASH TAKE

Bringing Laocorn into City of the Wolves is one of those “dream come true” moments for long-time SNK fans. Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture remains a beloved classic — Masami Obari’s 1994 film defined how many people saw these characters for decades. To see its central antagonist reimagined, fully voiced, and with his own story modes in a modern Fatal Fury game? That’s respect for the legacy that goes beyond a simple nostalgia pick.

He fits perfectly, too — a character whose ambition and power border on the godlike, standing alongside Terry, Rock, and the rest of South Town’s finest. Will his overwhelming dominance be your undoing, or your opponents’? November 19 will decide.
