Playstation
A port of Real Bout Special titled Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special: Dominated Mind was released for the PlayStation in 1998 in Japan, which adds Alfred (the hidden boss in Real Bout 2) as a playable character, and includes an all new boss character named White (modeled after the character Alexander "Alex" DeLarge from A Clockwork Orange). The story of this version centers around White's brainwashing of Billy Kane and attempted takeover of Southtown's underworld in the power vacuum left by Geese Howard's death in the original Real Bout. In this version, Geese sports a halo over his head, a reference to his passing in the original Real Bout. Dominated Mind also features new moves, hidden unlockable super moves, super cancelling (known in the game as "Final Impacts"), and removed the line-sway system from the game.

The game also has an exclusive animated intro.
