Fatal Fury 3 is an adaptation of the Neo Geo CD fighting game. The game takes place in a fictional world where two rival factions are vying for control, and players must take on the role of one of four fighters to determine the victor.
The gameplay involves one-on-one matches with 2-D scrolling arenas, allowing for fast-paced and dynamic battles. The pseudo-3D aspects enable unique features such as "escape" holds, throws, and other attacks, adding a layer of strategy to the game.
