Geese - Team South Town
Get Straight
Intro
Geese Howard made his commanding debut in The King of Fighters series in KOF 96. Originally the iconic antagonist and the legendary final boss of the Fatal Fury franchise, Geese remains one of the most beloved figures in fighting game history. Even within the KOF universe, his deep-seated blood feud with the Bogard brothers, Terry and Andy, continues to be a central pillar of the narrative.
A historic highlight in KOF XV is the inclusion of Geese’s son, Rock Howard, marking the first time in franchise history that father and son have appeared on the same roster. This long-awaited confrontation adds a new level of emotional depth to the game, allowing players to witness the clash of the Howard legacy firsthand.
Features
Geese Howard’s fighting style is deeply rooted in traditional Japanese martial arts, seamlessly blending elements from various legendary schools. He is a master of both high-impact throws and his signature Atemi Nage (counter-throws), while also possessing formidable long-range projectiles. Though his style transcends any single classification, the sheer aura of authority and dominance he exudes allows players to feel the weight of his presence as the "Ruler of South Town."
As a true all-around character, Geese embodies the perfect balance between offense and defense. Whether he is aggressively breaking down an opponent’s guard or calmly baiting them into a devastating counterattack, his versatility makes him an indomitable force on the battlefield.
