The coveted 'Best Fighting Game' award was presented to 'Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves', a title that has been making waves in the gaming community. This victory is particularly notable as it marks a return to the roots of the franchise, with the game's setting in Southtown after a 25-year absence. The competition was fierce, with '2XKO', 'Capcom Fighting Collection 2', 'Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection', and 'Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage' also in the running. The judges' decision to award 'Fatal Fury' is a testament to its status as the only fully completed and original title in the category, setting it apart from the rest. The game's journey to the top is a reminder that sometimes, the classics deserve a second chance.
