Looking to unlock all the images in Garou’s gallery? Look no further! This guide will show you all the images you can unlock and also provide tips and tricks to help you achieve all the achievements.
Introduction
While I did legitimately unlock all the images, I don’t remember what conditions I fulfilled to get them. If you know how to unlock a specific image and the unlock condition isn’t stated, please feel free to comment at the bottom of the guide or in this thread. I’m pretty sure that completing Garou’s achievements will cover most if not all of the unspecified conditions, so try starting with those. I’ve included some basic information on how to unlock the achievements below the picture gallery, so give that a look if you want more information. What’s more, I’ve included a trick for survival that might make that mode easier.
I will update the guide with any information you submit as soon as I can. Hopefully, this will be a successful group effort that helps some would-be completionist(s) later on down the line. Thanks in advance for any and all help!
Without further ado, I present to you this game’s artwork.

Tips for Unlocking the Achievements
Beat story mode with all 14 characters (difficulty doesn’t matter), making sure that you get the good ending with everyone. To get the good ending, you need to beat Kain R. Heinlein, who is the game’s true final boss. While straightforward, here’s how to access story mode:
It’s been a while so I don’t remember the exact conditions for facing Kain in this version, but at most you have to do the following:
a) Get an average ranking of AAA or higher
b) Never continue
c) Don’t lose a single round
Like I said, this is the most you would have to do. If anyone can clarify the specific conditions for facing Kain, please reach out to me via one of the two methods mentioned in the Introduction. Note that even if you can still fight Kain after continuing, one of the achievements requires you to beat story without continuing, so you’ll probably want to do so at least once.
For your reference, here is Garou’s full roster: Terry Bogard, Rock Howard, B. Jenet, Kim Dong Hwan, Kim Jae Hoon, Hotaru Futaba, Gato, Tizoc (aka The Griffon Mask), Marco Rodrigues (aka Khushnood Butt), Hokutomaru, Kevin Rian, Freeman, Grant, and Kain R. Heinlein. If you aren’t sure how to select Grant and Kain, please refer to the images below:
Multiplayer is accessible from the main menu. You’ll want to do the following in this mode:
1) Win a total of 20 matches (you will unlock two achievements in the process)
2) Win 10 matches in a row
Beat survival mode with at least Terry and Rock (difficulty doesn’t matter). You can access survival by doing the following:
Switch the game over to the DotEmu version. “Do what?,” you may ask. Basically, there’s another version of Garou released by CodeMystics, and some of the achievements can only be unlocked in that version. Here’s how to access it:
1) Go to your games library, right click Garou: Mark of the Wolves, and select “properties” from the drop-down menu that appears.
2) This will open up the properties window. Click on the “Betas” tab and type dotemuversion into the box below “Private Betas.” Once you’ve done this, click the “Check Code” button to the right.
3) Locate the box in the upper right corner and select “dotemu – DotEmu 2016 release.”
4) Now wait until this version of the game finishes downloading.
Now that you have the DotEmu version installed, you’ll want to do the following in story mode:
1) Clear story mode at least once (difficulty doesn’t matter)
2) Beat story on the hardest difficulty (can be combined with #1)
3) Get a perfect in at least one round
4) Win 30 fights (this will unlock two achievements)
With the DotEmu version still installed, play a match in multiplayer. I highly doubt anyone is playing this version of the game, so you will probably need to boost this one; pro-tip: use the forums to find a boosting partner.
We’re not done with the DotEmu version just yet. There are a few tasks left to complete if you want to platinum this game, and they are all obtained through survival mode. What you want to do is:
1) Win 5 fights in survival (difficulty doesn’t matter)
2) Clear survival mode (difficulty doesn’t matter)
3) Clear survival mode on the hardest difficulty (can be combined with #2)
The third task here is the hardest achievement in the game to unlock. In the next section, I mention a trick you can implement if you’re struggling with survival. Keep in mind that while this trick can be used to clear survival, I myself do not know if it also unlocks pictures or achievements. This is because I had unlocked everything before I learned of the trick, so if anyone can confirm whether it does, please let me know.
Anyway, with all the achievements out of the way, I recommend exiting the game and reverting Garou back to its normal version.
Survival Trick
There’s a catch though. You need to have at least two controllers. Assuming you do, hit a button on your second controller whenever you feel you’re about to lose a match. This will stop your current fight and open up the character select screen. Select whomever you like and then beat P2 with your character. After player 2 has been defeated, you will once again be matched against your last CPU opponent. Note that your health, time and gauge will be identical to whatever they were when you first fought this opponent.
