ATLUS has revealed the KOF XIV North American release date, pre-order/day one edition details, a new video and they've announced that the classic Kylo DLC costume will be free for the week following launch!
The latest trailer from ATLUS for SNK's The King of Fighters video game has them showing off their updated 3D look while representing Team Japan in The King of Fighters XIV. Series mainstays Kyo, Benimaru, and Daimon are looking bigger, and badder than ever thanks to the 3D upgrade in KOF XIV. The new trailer will gives a glimpse of Kyo's fiery power, Benimaru's electric speed and Daimon's devastating tech throw combos!
Some of the changes and refinements gamers have to look forward to in The King of Fighters XIV include:
-
3D Evolution: All 50 fighters, movesets and more are rendered in full 3D graphics that preserves the essence of KOF's visual style but updates it with a whole new dimension.
-
The Best Refinement since KOF '98: Through extensive playtesting and balancing, the controls have been streamlined, and the Combo and Max Mode mechanics have been overhauled to create the most competitive fighter in SNK's history.
-
The KOF Saga Continues: There's a robust single-player storyline where several years have passed since the previous KOF tournament. Now a worldwide business, the global KOF will decide who is the strongest as both individuals and companies with their own ambitions have come to compete. Players compete against CPU-controlled opponents to unlock the storyline
-
The Best Roster Yet: There are 50 fighters total, with 31 returning from previous entries into the KOF series, and 19 brand new characters. All 50 characters will be available at the game's launch.
-
Revamped Online Experience: The King of Fighters XIV has devoted a lot of development time to improving the game's netcode for vastly improved online gameplay. KOF XIV uses the PS4's online architecture to have a whole host of online conveniences, from spectating to saving replay/battle data, and having a single online KOF XIV profile to connect with friends.
ATLUS announced today that The King of Fighters XIV will hit North American retailers August 23rd. The game will retail for $59.99/CA$79.99. Pre-orders and a limited number of launch editions will arrive in a special SteelBook case (as seen below). The Classic Kyo costume DLC will be free to all players for the week following launch.
The legendary fighters in the upcoming The King of Fighters XIV will be making their stateside debut thanks to a partnership between SNK PLAYMORE and Atlus U.S.A. The vaunted fighting game series, which first made its debut 1994, is entering a new evolution with The King of Fighters XIV thanks to series-first 3D graphics and debuting exclusively on the PlayStation 4 console. The King of Fighters XIV will arrive to consoles later in 2016.
