February has been a big month in gaming, and with The King of Fighters XV's upcoming release on February 17, it's set to become even more prominent.
Despite the recent release of successful titles like Guilty Gear Strive, there is a relative shortage of good fighting games. However, few are as big as the King of Fighters series among all the iconic series in the genre. The King of Fighters XV will be a direct continuation and will follow the previous game's events in the series.
With features like the first use of Unreal Engine 4 and a new network system, there are a lot of exciting features in this year's release. But a fighting game is nothing without characters or fighters. So, there will be no shortage of action at the start, with a roster of 39 fighters spread across 13 teams from the storyline.
