KOFXIV Announced for 2016

[Custle]

The article says they're only rumors. I don't know why we're acting like it's confirmed.

I'm more on a mindset "Why not?". Atlus USA could handle the publishing in North America and they like to release more "niche" games from Japan. Same with Rising Star Games. SNK has relationship with both publishers from the past, so I think both options are likely. If this isn't true, I'll let someone beat me up online

Kyo's 2nd upkick whiffs on blocking crouchers. Good.

Billy needs EX to do dp, ground flame in corner? He has new crossup button. Jump A or B?

It could be billys new air command move,  the one where he jumps and stabs directly beneath him. Billy can also go over ground projectiles with f+A and f+B

Kof XIV has got something that seems impressive so far. It's very technical in its hit detections, you can beat out DMs and maybe more with basic attacks if timed well enough. Seems like 02 in that respect. This game will have tons of gameplay to learn. It has so many characters and lots of basic and special moves all with their intricate ways to beat them and use them effectively.

It seems in that video they didn't know about advanced cancel.

Max Mode makes a lot of more sense now and is really an interesting tool that opens a new world for your character. I liked what I see. Let's hope the game will be balanced between characters as much as posible.

Can't wait for Tokyo's event on 25th.

Nice pics..

About combos in this game, here are some I would like to try if I had access.

In corner/or corner carry Kula cB, cB, sB, B+C, sC, qcf+A+C, qcb B+D (2 hits), qcb+B (1 hit) DP.

Billy hcf+A+C, qcf+A+C (new follow up), A+C mash for the EX club twist which creates a vacume to suck them in.

King hcb+B+D, after ground bounce can she do qcf+B, hcb+D. Have a feeling the qcf+K will not be fast enough.

King hcb+B+D, sA (reset), then run underneath for a mix up.

I wonder is Mui Mui's blast same sort of move that Tung had in NGBC, like short ranged "projectile" blast, that also Ryo has?

So far I've been most excited about Mui Mui. My sister noted that it was nice touch that dragon had five claws, like Chinese dragons usually have.

She has a super saiyan form

I wonder if she will have it in KOF XIV too, somehow. Maybe in her Climax.

And I can't stop thinking about next characters reveal. I think it's time for Ramon and Mature.

Maybe "super saiyan" mode is similar to those power up modes that Ash, Shen Woo and Duo Lon (2003-XI) had?

Could well be. Maybe the climax is that dragon summon move.

Ayy finally wifi again. I though the thumbnail was Xiang fei at first lol. And the hooded dude has white hair, I thought he resembled jivatma or whatever his name is from MI. the famitsu stream was also very nice to watch. Loved seeing them struggle with some of the stuff (ioris DM follow up, Billy's new taco) and their "aha~!" Moments like when they discovered Billy's vortex or kings double strike in ex mode lol


Edit: 1000th reply woooo~

Now a release date!

Hold your horses. Next announcement should be publisher for Europe. I remember the time when it was uncertain would XIII even get released at EU.

If game is coming this year, I think it should be around late summer or maybe autumn. Winter time might be a death wish, because that's when big name releases happen.

Has there been any word of Asia release? That should give some indication.

That's what Atlus published: "THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIV will arrive to consoles later in 2016."
So I expect the game for October/November.

I'm glad Atlus is on charge again. They did a great job with XIII. Maybe I'll be getting an USA copy this time.

The rumor mill before Atlus was officially announced was Atlus was covering NA and Rising Star Games was covering EU.
