Kevin is the AKARI WARRIOR of GAROU..not chris redfield.. This whole genre is based off characters being students or proteges of original characters...KEVIN represents CLARK AND RALPH
Gameplay aside, I always had it pinned that Jonah Scott would be the perfect voice for an English Terry. Cool to see that we still got him in the game in some way
@@aboodash9008 I always felt like Jonah gets typecasted as "bro" characters which is the cadence I typically associate with Terry. Interesting choice with Whitten, not someone I would've pinned for it
@@OYAHlGHNot sure how Kokushibo fits so much as the “bro” personality, but I guess he’s the chill Upper moon demon?? Idk, infinity castle arc plz get here soon
@@lennydickson8845 he also voices Randy Orland from Trails, Joe from SK8, Rihito from Kengan, Ryuki from Pokemon masters just to name a few that match how I think Terry would sound
And you know if Kevin is in a certain psychotic antagonist is in as well considering Kevin's history with him and FF fans know which psychotic antagonist from MotW I'm talking about.
Kevin has such a cool moveset. Cancels, follow ups, cool explosions. Really fun character! I assume he won't be stupid OP this time and look forward to playing him!
Oh we know Freeman is going to be in this game. Mostly cause Kevin's story hasn't resolved aka according to the canon of MotW Kevin before he could kill Freeman and get his vengeance was forced to make a choice as Freeman revealed that he had taken hostages and hidden them somewhere and that the room they were in was going to explode in 10 minutes forcing Kevin to choose between saving innocent lives or take revenge at the cost of the hostages dying via a explosion and Kevin chose to rescue the hostages instead and after getting back to where Freeman was after saving the hostages Kevin discovered that Freeman used his heroic nature to save innocent lives to his advantage aka Freeman escaped while Kevin was saving the hostages. And to no one's surprise Kevin didn't view what happened as a true victory as yeah he saved innocent lives but in the process inadvertently let Freeman get away again meaning Kevin still didn't get his murdered best friend justice something he still wants to rectify.
If I didn't know about Terry and Rock, I would've thought Kevin was the protagonist. He feels a lot like a "Japanese trying to appeal to Americans"-type of character.
From all the original Garou characters, Kevin was the one who I least expected to see returning. Now I want to belive that ALL the characters from Garou will come back to this game, It would be a crime to put this guy in and leaving Freeman , Hokotumaru and the Kim brothers behind. (As for Gato and Kain, c'mon, we all know that they will eventually be announced)
Kain is already teased in announcement artworks with Billy, Andy and Joe. Hokutomaru and Gato are teased in voices trailer with Mai Shiranui. Freeman is Kevin's rival so probably it's in. The only motw that remain are the Kim brothers and Grant (probably replaced by Vox Reaper).
@@Fusso Idk, I thought that he wasn't that popular, mostly because SNK doesn't make a lot of references about him in KOF, like they do with Hokotumaru in the Andy vs Mai special dialogue in Kof XIV , Freeman appearing in the background of one stage in SNK Battle Colesseum and Kim talking about his sons in his interview in his Kof XV online interview. I thought that Kevin was one of those characters that SNK forgot about... ...And a little bit of personal taste. I'm not much of a fan of Kevin, I always found him just as more boring version of the Ikari duo, but that's just my opinion, if you like him that's ok.
This is nice! Spooky once summarized KOF as a roster of “well dressed assholes.” I love that! Stylish characters designs that are grounded in reality. It’s giving Mature Action Movie vibes, rather than teenage boy power fantasy, and that’s what I want more of in my fighting games!
@@Vindrows Yes, but both characters are generally not that popular. I really like Freeman, but don't care about Kevin, especially if Blue Mary ends up not being a part of the base roster.
@@ThiefofRPGistheWanderingSoul Kevin will certainly have a plot in the single player component, and since his revenge against Freeman is not over it is obvious that there will be. They can't leave the story hanging.
I've never been one to play much with Kevin but I liked his moveset, he seems to be the type that doesn't attack much but does a lot of damage (famous Heavy Hitter) I wonder when we'll have Kim Jae Hoon's trailer, I'd like to play with him besides Terry and Rock
@@ezelalia5739 I know, but I wasn't used to playing with him, but I liked some of his moves and this new special where he throws a bomb to punch his opponent in the face reminded me of Ralf's explosive punches.
They Jonah Scott to be Kevin Rian? Nice! NGL, maybe because of the fact that Kevin's blonde and the recent anime I binge watched with Jonah in it, I can't stop seeing Lahito from Kengan Ashura being a cowboy cop in *addition* to being a Fighter President.
I got to admit, seeing Kevin return and punch a grenade round makes me wonder why Roger Craig smith didn’t get the role for this game, he would’ve been perfect as Kevin
@@jalenikezeue4114 Ralf. Like not even a contest. Kevin might be related to a family of powerful warriors, but Ralf has single handedly faced entire armies. Ralf just has more feats, and unlike Kevin, Ralf was trained by Heidern, arguably the deadliest assassin in the SNK multiverse.
Where they butchered the 3rd one with generic enemies instead of Yamazaki? Yea. Such a shame, it was srill good though (got it copied on vgs and 3rd one on dvd).
@@makavelimusolini1036 Yeah, the third one had problems because it was not based on Fatal Fury 3, but Fatal Fury special (a remake of Fatal Fury 2), which meant they had to come up with something original. But the original anime needs a reboot with better fight sequences and that the plot reaches all the way to Real Bout Fatal Fury (the final canonical chapter).
Ah, nothing like a fun filled, family friendly trip to the zoo where you can see the monkeys, the elephants, that guy getting the crap beat outta him, the penguins...
And the corn dogs.... Always the corn dogs
Just another day in South Town
In South Town, the local fighters count as wildlife
I'm pretty sure the crashed truck and close encounters with free-roaming ostriches were in the marketing
I always thought it was funny how kids and old ladies in fighting game stages are cheering on two people fighting in the streets
Please don't break the game this time, Kevin
No promise, buddy
His break is so slow now bruhh
😂
He didn't break it the last time. He was top tier, but Garou was very balanced.
mannn lmao....this is some ffacts 🤣
Kevin is the Chris Redfield of Garou. He doesn’t punches stones, he does punches 40 mm granades.
Kevin is the AKARI WARRIOR of GAROU..not chris redfield..
This whole genre is based off characters being students or proteges of original characters...KEVIN represents CLARK AND RALPH
No joke, I thought it was Chris Redfield's voice actor at first, lol.
This is going to make Ralf blush
Part Ikaki Warrior, part Chris Redfield. Superb.
Makes Me Wonder if Jonah Scott Will Be The Voice of Kanji Tatsumi in Another Persona 4 Remake
Gameplay aside, I always had it pinned that Jonah Scott would be the perfect voice for an English Terry. Cool to see that we still got him in the game in some way
Wait, you pinned Jonah Scott as the voice of Terry Bogard? I thought Mark Whitten would have made a good voice for Terry Bogard.
@@aboodash9008 shoot I used to say Roger Craig Smith back in the day for Terry but Mark Whiten that woulda been perfect imo

Cant beat Stryker!

What's so great about a swole pickle?
WE LOVE YOU KEVIN
Kevin‼️‼️‼️
KEVIN P.!
Wow I didn’t know this was a HAT
Kev was like the Ralf of MotW. Glad he's back, explosions and all!

@@derrickhaggard Kain?
@@derrickhaggard Wait yeah Freeman
And he even stole prototype Ralf's thing, using grenades, lol
This game is getting better and better!
Right!
I'm hoping Yamazaki returns and we get nightmare Geese ngl but so far this game is looking perfect
@@Dhampire1976nightmare geese as dlc is better as non canon because he legit dead in canon timeline
Kevin has such a cool moveset. Cancels, follow ups, cool explosions. Really fun character! I assume he won't be stupid OP this time and look forward to playing him!
Ok, never played Fatal Fury, but the supermove where he puts a giant round between your face and his fist, now I'm in!
Stoked to hear about the new art of fighting and sam sho games in the works...I'll take them all!
Kevin was a monster in the OG Garou seriously broken, hope he's fun but not too broken this time around...
His voice actor seems great
That song at the end always gets to me👌👌👌
yeee that song i still think is an unreleased track of Tillian Pearson fronting Dance Gavin Dance ... def sounds like him

I like this song too. Tell me its name.
This game is what Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite should have looked like.
Now it looks similar
1:07 - RELEASE THIS SONG!!! OR tell us the name at least.
Wait till 2025 or maby SNK will upload the song as a Christmas present
kevin looks like he'll be offering her sister to terry to continue the ryan bloodline.
One step closer to the return of Freeman. Oh baby.
Oh we know Freeman is going to be in this game.
Mostly cause Kevin's story hasn't resolved aka according to the canon of MotW Kevin before he could kill Freeman and get his vengeance was forced to make a choice as Freeman revealed that he had taken hostages and hidden them somewhere and that the room they were in was going to explode in 10 minutes forcing Kevin to choose between saving innocent lives or take revenge at the cost of the hostages dying via a explosion and Kevin chose to rescue the hostages instead and after getting back to where Freeman was after saving the hostages Kevin discovered that Freeman used his heroic nature to save innocent lives to his advantage aka Freeman escaped while Kevin was saving the hostages.

He definitely will be in there, it's a no-brainer.
Oh Freeman, the only character I cared even less about than Hokutomaru
@@MdrnGmngScks Sonic pfp and bad taste are an iconic duo.
Didnt freemen shot dead in Garou in his ending?
Well if it isn't the explosive bad boy! And Jonah Scott reminds me so much of Matthew Mercer, good voice!!
I really want Marky to chasing Kevin as long as he's fighting like MOTW did.
I agree, Marky has to be in background anytime you play as Kevin. There a Package Deal.
Exactly this
Marky IS in the background. he's the lil kid with the helmet.
@@asaka616 Yeah i know but i meant that he was chasing Kevin like MOTW

oh shit, Legoshi's Voice Actor is in Video games now! Absolutely killin it XD
Pure art. Looks and sounds fantastic already. Keep it up. 🎉
The game looks more and more gorgeous each time! Can't wait!!
Don’t you mean Garougeous.
If I didn't know about Terry and Rock, I would've thought Kevin was the protagonist. He feels a lot like a "Japanese trying to appeal to Americans"-type of character.
Freeman is confirmed too ✌️
Hope so
DAMMIT
I fucking love freeman!
I don't know if they bring him back.
How has Freeman been confirmed? He’s the only one I haven’t seen teasers for.
@kingx1024 His name was mentioned in Kevin's bio in the description.
He looks awesome in 3D! His hair looks a bit weird, though.
"Watch your feet!" 🤣
Probably because his hair more like grow than the old game he look bit older here too
@@ameerrusdi2540 That makes sense.
His English dialogue is OnPoint
@@ameerrusdi2540COTW takes place 2 years after MOTW.
@@Hilversumborn make sense than that Kevin look just a bit older for his age
This art design is just beautiful. Glad they didn't go the generic hyper realistic route 👍🏾.
Watch your feet !! Kevin’s such a stand up guy ❤
Kevin Rian always reminded me of Bryan Fury if the police force didn't betray him
Huh, now you think about it... 🤔
Finally someone said it! It's why I rocked his prison pallet with the white hair!
He didn't the police force betrayed him
@@popeyedoyle6360 oh snap, you're absolutely right
The police force may betray him but, Bryan has always been a murderous psychopath.

Didn't help that he was the best character in the game.

he is the most used character in the game , hokotumaru and rock are the most least btw.
btw he is blue mary's brother.
It seems that the core roster will be mostly MotW cast and they Jeep the new and old faces to a minimun
He still got Marky cheering him on in the background too!
Glad to see Kevin return to this new entry. Now, about his rival in MotW... 🤞
Looking hot AF, Kev.
Literally 💣 🔥
THANK YOU SNK
HD Rotor cancelling soon.
I really want the full version of the song , it's such a cool song
Same I love the song.
YOOOO!! NICE TO SEE* THE MAN IS BACK!!
Yes! Been wanting to see Kevin added!
The wait was worth it

Great to see Kevin returning in City of the Wolves (complete with Marky in the background). Hopefully Blue Mary will be next.
I know he's my third favourite character ⭐🐺🌃
It's nice to see Kevin back
Can’t wait to see Hokutomaru again, that’s a very fun character to play with
They really gave Kevin the Outlaw Star opening theme as his new BGM, amazing
Oh joy, hopefully this means Freeman will be back as well at least
of course

I'm not gone cap tho, these SNK theme songs for their games are going so hard it's ridiculous
Oh no, the top tier is back
The song is pretty fire, tbh
He was crazy stronk in Mark of the Wolves. I’m surprised how much of his design they’ve kept.
It’s a uniform, so of course nothing much is changed.
@@ShatteredPedestal7 It looked silly, even at the time, unless he was working for the Kindom Hearts PD. It's a little better now at least.

If that’s true? That’s really cool.
Yeah her cousin
@@damonte985 yup
Her full name is ‘Blue’ Mary Ryan.

Welcome back,Kevin Rian
Oh no. 😅 no just kidding, I'm so excited!! Hopefully we get Kim bros. Next!! 😁

Good ol' Kevin! Glad to see him back in action!
Ryan wasn't the character that interested me the most but he does look very good in that style.
Let’s go, snk is back
Mr. Explosive Knee strikes has returned.
No way Kevin makes it back!
Man I can’t wait for this game
I instantly recognised the VA, it's Lihito from Kengan Ashura!
He’s also Legoshi from BEASTARS!
Holy crap, you're right!!!!
Kokushibo too from KnY.
Randy Orlando from Trails
Legoshi? Damn, this really is the City of the Wolves.
