Today marks the 20th anniversary of SNK Playmore's KOF franchise. Unfortunately, it looks like the fighting games maker has nothing to announce on this momentous occasion.
But it isn't complete radio silence on the SNK fighting games' front; today the trademark_bot Twitter account has uncovered a number of noteworthy trademark registration filings that SNK Playmore has recently made.
Three more SNK Playmore titles from their PS2 library are coming to PlayStation 3. Look for The King of Fighters: Maximum Impact Maniax, Twinkle Star Sprites and NeoGeo Battle Coliseum soon.

Part Four will bring us right up to date with the King of Fighters storyline just in time for the UK release of King of Fighters XII. You know the drill right now; sit back, get comfortable and enjoy the final part of the story, so far."
BeefJack writes: "Welcome to part three of the King Of Fighters Retrospective: A look back at the story of KOF that will bring us up to date with the series to coincide with the release of King Of Fighters XII on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on August 28 in the USA and September 4th in Europe.
We've so far covered the many tournaments in the early titles and seen many changes to the format of the tournaments. There have also been a handful of villains wanting power, fame and success but thus far none have been successful. By this time in the story both Kyo and Iori had become essentially King Of Fighter's own Ryu and Ken. However that wasn't to last as a new warrior by the name of K' was about to take centre stage."
2.5 style like SF4 and GGXRD, yes. 3D like TEKKEN and DOA, no.
Anyway, i'm glad to hear that a new KOF game is in development!
I wanna see a new KoF in the same graphic style as Guilty Gear Xrd!
We need a new actual entry in the KoF series. 13 was good, they just need to launch with strong net code this time out.
