Art of Fighting Anthology Making It’s Way To The PS2; First Screenshots Online

SNK Playmore announced today that the much loved Art of Fighting series is making it’s way to the PS2.

ART OF FIGHTING was SNK’s second fighting-game franchise, set in the same universe as the FATAL FURY franchise, and serving as a prequel to the FATAL FURY saga. The ART OF FIGHTING series improved upon the tried-and-true 2D-fighter combat system with a spirit gauge that gave each player the ability to perform special attacks, as well as an innovative graphical-scaling camera system.

Art of Fighting has always held a special place in my gamer heart and I am really excited about this news. And not only will the original Art of Fighting be on the disc, but the entire series! I don’t know what else you’d want in a retail package!
