Deep Silver has today announced a partnership with SNK to publish the next King of Fighters game in Europe. The King of Fighters XIV will be available on PlayStation 4 on August 26 with both digital and retail releases planned.
“We are looking forward to adding The King of Fighters XIV to Deep Silver’s portfolio,” said Dr. Klemens Kundratitz, CEO of Koch Media. “Publishing the next instalment of such an iconic fighting series in Europe, the first time on PS4, supplements our roster of Deep Silver games nicely.”
The traditional 3 on 3 battle system returns and features 19 additional playable characters, taking the roster to up to 50 fighters in total. There will be online 6 player battles, chances to unleash devastating combos and new EX moves in Max Mode. The game will also include the new Rush feature which will allow newcomers of the series a chance to unleash simplified combos.
