Everything You Need to Know About ‘The King of Fighters XV'

SNK

The Japanese video game publisher/developer SNK is revered for introducing the world to some of the most recognized franchises in gaming.

There are so many IPs that sit inside SNK's golden franchise vault - Fatal Fury, Metal Slug, Samurai Shodown, King of the Monsters, etc. But there's one that's brought in the most attention and built up quite the long-lasting legacy. And that's The King of Fighters. KOF is SNK's ultimate franchise crossover celebration - it features a long list of characters lifted from various SNK properties, throws in a wealth of original series entrants, and lets players mix & match them up in three-person squads.

Since hitting arcades back in 1994, The King of Fighters has delivered a whole host of mainline sequels and spinoffs. Now in 2022, we're up to the 15h official mainline entry in the series and it looks like it's going to be one of the very best to date.

Now's the perfect time to talk about everything there is to know about The King of Fighters XV before it sets the FGC on fire when it releases on February 17.
