ART OF FIGHTING 2 MICKEY ROGERS

Art of Fighting 2 (1994) is a classic 2D fighting game by SNK, sequel to Art of Fighting. The story follows Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia as they search for Ryo’s sister, Yuri, kidnapped by Mr. Big’s gang. The game introduces new fighters, including Ryo’s father, Takuma, and expands the series’ lore.

Key features include the "Spirit Gauge" system (special moves drain energy), dramatic zoom-ins during super moves, and a "Desperation Attacks" mechanic for comeback potential. The game’s hand-drawn visuals and tough AI made it stand out in the Neo Geo era.
A cult favorite, Art of Fighting 2 refined the series’ unique mechanics and storytelling, influencing later SNK titles like The King of Fighters.
