The King of Fighters series is back six years after the release of KOF XIV with a great sequel that will undoubtedly live up to the fighting legacy the franchise has carried since its first release in 1994.

The latest part of the King of Fighters saga ties in with the story mode of the previous title. Heroes from the Orochi, NESTS and Ash sagas have joined The King Of Fighters XV, and this time the story is heading for an explosive climax.

The King Of Fighters XV offers the classic 3-on-3 team battle system as well as a number of new features such as SHATTER STRIKE, a new mechanic that players can use to counter enemy attacks. There is also an improved MAX mode and MAX mode (Quick) with a rush function that allows you to perform combos by quickly pressing attack buttons. All of these features, including some reworked and dynamic special moves, make for explosive combat and exciting gameplay for new and experienced players alike.

The King Of Fighters XV has 1 to 2 players locally and 2 to 8 players online. The game offers a wide range of online modes including RANKED MATCH, CASUAL MATCH, ROOM MATCH and ONLINE TRAINING.
