多少客串角色太多了？东京复仇者联盟 X 狼之城合作引发格斗游戏争论

“他们只是添加任何人，兄弟。”格斗游戏界正就《饿狼传说：狼之城》客串角色的数量展开激烈争论。

On September 9, SNK announced two more guest characters coming to City of the Wolves: Manjiro "Mikey" Sano and Ken "Draken" Ryuguji from Tokyo Revengers .这些受欢迎的少年动漫主角是该游戏的一系列客串角色中的最新成员，其中包括《街头霸王》中的春丽和肯、职业足球运动员克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多、音乐艺术家萨尔瓦多·加纳奇和《北斗神拳》中的健四郎。

That’s a lot of guest characters for a game that’s only a little more than a year old — and while Ken and Chun-Li make sense given Capcom and SNK’s wealth of crossovers over the years, five guest characters from totally unrelated franchises feels a bit excessive to some players (myself included).

There’s a trend sweeping through popular fighting games lately where non-fighting game characters are being included in major titles like Street Fighter 6 , Tekken 8, and of course, City of the Wolves.

For example, Final Fantasy 7’s Tifa Lockhart is coming to Street Fighter 6 next year, while Baki’s Yujiro Hanma is set to make a splash in Tekken 8 in 2027.

While these one-off characters aren’t ruffling too many feathers within the fighting game community (Tekken is a franchise known for including one or two oddball guests), the sheer amount of guest characters in CotW is raising eyebrows — especially given the fact that they不是来自其他格斗游戏。

“Lmfaoo, adding anything bruh.

Kenshiro was dope, but what the f**k is this,” one player wrote on X.

“Funniest fighting game roster of all time bro,” another said .

“喜欢这两个人，但是他们是怎么喜欢上巴基，或者地狱，甚至是大间时田的呢？” another asked , referencing popular martial arts anime Kengan Ashura (which, funnily enough, celebrated a collaboration with Street Fighter 6 not long ago).值得注意的是，格斗游戏对于来自完全不同世界的客串角色来说并不陌生。

the Mortal Kombat franchise is perhaps the best example of this, having added characters like Robocop, Omni-Man, Homelander, the Terminator, Alien's Xenomorph, and many other similar fighters to its rosters over the years.
