The FATAL FURY Laocorn Gaudeamus DLC is bringing a movie villain back to the ring. SNK has confirmed that Laocorn Gaudeamus, the sixth DLC fighter for Season Pass 3, joins FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves on November 19, 2026 — and he is bringing his own Arcade Mode and Episodes of South Town stories with him. If that name rings a bell, it should: Laocorn was the main antagonist of the 1994 anime Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture, and now, more than three decades later, he is finally stepping into the games.

FATAL FURY Laocorn Gaudeamus DLC: Who Is Laocorn?

Laocorn is a descendant of the Gaudeamus clan, a bloodline obsessed with the legendary Armor of Mars. In the 1994 film, he hunted the armor’s pieces across the world, driven by a lust for godlike power that made him one of the most memorable villains in Fatal Fury history. His arrival in City of the Wolves finally gives that movie menace a playable form, complete with the overwhelming, almost divine fighting style the character was built around. Longtime fans have waited years for this one, and SNK is clearly giving him the full treatment.

What’s Included: Arcade Mode and Episodes of South Town

Laocorn does not arrive empty-handed. The FATAL FURY Laocorn Gaudeamus DLC includes his own Arcade Mode, so players can run his story from start to finish, plus new Episodes of South Town stories that dig into his place in the City of the Wolves universe. He will be voiced by Branden Loera in English and Shin-ichiro Miki in Japanese, a pairing that gives the character real weight in both languages. Whether you pick him up for the story or for the spectacle, there is plenty to sink your teeth into.

Reina From TEKKEN 8 Closes Out Season 3 in December

Laocorn is the penultimate fighter of Season Pass 3, but he is not the last. TEKKEN 8’s Reina follows in December as the final Season 3 fighter, closing out the pass with a crossover that has had fighting game fans talking since it was announced. With Laocorn landing in November and Reina in December, Season Pass 3 is ending the year with a one-two punch of returning legends and guest stars — and City of the Wolves keeps getting bigger.

Season Pass 3 and Edition Prices

Season Pass 3 costs $19.99, and the FATAL FURY Laocorn Gaudeamus DLC is included in it, so pass holders get him automatically on November 19. For players who want everything in one package, the Revenge Edition bundles the base game with Season Passes 1 through 3 for $49.99 — or $29.99 on Nintendo Switch 2. And if you have never picked up City of the Wolves at all, the Standard Edition is currently 75% off at $4.99 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Steam and Epic. At that price, there has never been a better time to step into South Town.
