    It's far from the standard quality of the best chapters of the KOF saga but works well in his playability. The roster needs some classic characters. Has roll-back netcode.

    The true test for The King of Fighters XV is going to come in the days ahead, as the game gets into the hands of the general public and we see how everything fares both online and in far larger pools of player-vs.-player matches. For now, I’m excited for KOF XV. Its gameplay feels solid, its roster is satisfying, and its overall visual design once again does the series justice. I just hope all of those things hold up once the real fight begins.

    Extremely fun and flashy game. Been loving it since the start and I just cant stop playing it and I enjoy it more every time. Such a massiveExtremely fun and flashy game. Been loving it since the start and I just cant stop playing it and I enjoy it more every time. Such a massive improvement over 14 and it fixes a lot of issues players had and the UI is just overall alot cleaner and so many QOL changes and it's just a well made game! Music is excellent and the game even allows you to choose songs from every king of fighters game and some other series such as Fatal Fury or Metal slug and more! Full Review »

    Other than wishing there was a tad bit more single player content, the game is phenomenal and delivered every other aspect. So happy for SNK.Other than wishing there was a tad bit more single player content, the game is phenomenal and delivered every other aspect. So happy for SNK. For casual players, I understand if you were wanting more solo content, but those who mainly play online; this is a must grab. Full Review »
