The company behind some of the biggest fighting games in history has a new owner and a bold new plan -- one that could mean more King of Fighters games, movies, and TV shows.
Update: Noodalls has now released his findings for The King of Fighters 15's input latency on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, which have been added to the original story below.The PlayStation 5 began garnering itself something ...
Xbox consoles do have a long history of outperforming Playstation consoles in fighting games at button input lag to the point that the annual Las Vegas EVO tournament was exclusively using only Xbox 360 consoles for Street Fighter 4 tournaments for a few years. For a few years the Las Vegas EVO tournament didn't want Playstation consoles for Street Fighter tournaments others. Sony was forced to buyout Street Fighter V and basically purchase EVO tournament to keep Xbox consoles out of EVO
No matter how bad it performs on Playstation 5, you will never see King of Fighters XV on Series S or X consoles at EVO tournament because Sony recently purchased EVO
Typo-no matter how bad it performs on Playstation 4 or 5, you will never see King of Fighters XV on Series S or X consoles at EVO tournament because Sony recently purchased EVO
When Capcom ignored South America, a dark horse candidate emerged to dominate the region's fighting game scene.
Wccftech selected the ten best fighting games released in the 2010 decade, which they reckon was the Golden Age for the genre.
I don't know how I feel about this...
I have always wanted SNK to rise from it's ashes and I am a huge KoF fan. But it sounds like an unknown Chinese company that has many sub companies has purchased it. Sounds like a chop shop and I wonder if they would even let SNK make more games or break it up and sell off all it's assets.
Well here's hoping for another KoF!
I've always thought KoF looked cool but never been able to get into the games. Simply put, they are very exceptionally technical and I think the notion of learning three characters (when I struggle to even master one) is incredibly off putting.
The way I see it, if I haven't even mastered my Yun or Rose on SFIV, however can I hope to master three characters in a fighting game like KoF?
It's a great game though, but it seems to make zero allowances for newer players, and ultimately extreme inaccessibility will kill your game, and the genre if you're not careful.
and there goes what little hope I had for a new capcom vs snk.
Let me guess, the next boss is some giant Kung Fu guy with bronze arms..
So no Capcom vs SNK 3?
