Born to Geese Howard, raised by Terry Bogard—Rock’s very being is one of mixed emotions and internal conflict. Despite having lived a new life with Terry, one day Rock finds himself facing off against a foe who claims to know about his past—namely his birth mother, and the fact that she is very much alive. Armed with this new information, the troubled youth resolves to find his own way through life—and fight on in order to make that happen.

Throughout all of his appearances, Rock utilized variations of Terry's attacks (like the Power Dunk and Crack Shoot) and the ancient ki controlling skills from Geese, such as the Deadly Rave, the ground traveling projectile Reppuken, and the Raging Storm. Despite his popularity and flashy play style, Rock was generally considered a mid tier character in Mark of the Wolves,mostly due to the resources he would have to spend to deal damage. In King of Fighters XV, many of his skills and abilities saw some buffs, and is one of the most widely used characters.   

Fatal Fury: City of Wolves is scheduled to launch in early 2025 for the PlayStation 5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows
