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 King Of Fighters XV continues the KOF series’ legacy with its iconic 3-on-3 team battles.
Different teams have different stories and endings.
SNK CORPORATION announced that The King Of Fighters XV (KOF XV) will receive a free, significant update on January 30, 2024, introducing the Advance Strike mechanic.
The Advance Strike allows players to perform more aggressive plays by protecting themselves against throws and attacks.
The Advance Strike causes a hard knockdown on hit, leaving players’ well-placed for more offense. This offensive move costs half a power gauge bar, but this is restored on both hit and block. Unlike the counterattack Shatter Strike, the Advance Strike grants a counter hitbox against throws partway through; if it lands while the counter is active, players’ opponents will crumple to the ground (and be prone to follow-ups).
The King Of Fighters XV is available for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC at $59.99/€59.99.
