    It's a disgrace ported without effort, it's just optimized with an arcade joystick, it's torture to play with a gamepad, and the game doesn't apply any combination you want to do, it's a complete disgrace for those who have played fighting games for many years, especially for those who are interested in the king of fighter series. It would be healthier to play this legend using an emulator.

    Great 3 VS 3 team fighting game.

    PROS: visually amazing (better than 96'), story simple but enjoyable (there are also multiple endings you unlock depending on the characters you pick), awesome BGM, more than 30 characters to choose from.
    CONS: every team's music theme only plays when the team's leader is fighting. Some teams don't even have a music theme, so some battles become boring.
