Among multiple changes to the cast, one of the main characters, Kyo Kusanagi, was altered to look like his previous looks while altering other parts of his design like his jacket and gloves. Cast and scenario Ĭharacter design is being handled by Tomohiro Nakata, which also working on The King of Fighters All Star. SNK later confirmed that they were using GGPO for their rollback implementation. The team aims to improve the gameplay and graphics while also providing a more interesting story than the one from XIV. In February 2021, Oda announced on his personal Twitter account that the team is working on implementing rollback-based netcode for the game. The team focused on improving the visuals and increasing the fast-paced gameplay by adding new elements which have yet to be explained. The trailer was, instead, revealed the next day and included game footage of Kyo, Shun'ei, Benimaru, K', Mai Shiranui and Leona Heidern, while also confirming a 2021 release. An official trailer was set for Janubut was delayed for unknown reasons alongside the downloadable content for Samurai Shodown. Ogura called it "our most ambitious KOF yet". During these announcements, the two developers revealed sketches of Shun'ei, Kyo Kusanagi and Benimaru Nikaido, with the former being set to be the protagonist of the new game. However, in late December, Oda and Ogura revealed the game would see release in 2021 with more content yet to be explored. Originally, the game was set to be released in 2020. The director of King of Fighters XIV, Yasuyuki Oda, serves as the producer for the title.
Most notably, he served as the main illustrator for The King of Fighters XIII and XIV. The game's creative director is Eisuke Ogura, who has previously worked as an artist on the series, beginning with The King of Fighters 2001. At Evo 2019, SNK announced that the game was in development. They decided to make XV while they were still working on XIV but only started development after Samurai Shodown was completed. Feeling the previous title had outdated graphics for a 2016 game, SNK chairman Zhihui Ge said that XV will use the Unreal Engine 4 to provide a better presentation. In December 2018, SNK revealed the company was working on The King of Fighters XV, aiming to release it during 2020. Oda instead worked in a spin-off, SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy, a female character-driven fighting game and a spiritual sequel of SNK Gals' Fighters. Characters ĭue to positive response to the marketing of The King of Fighters XIV, director Yasuyuki Oda said in August 2017 The King of Fighters XV was possible, but the company SNK also wanted to focus on other franchises. The story focuses on how Verse, the creature from KOF XIV, has caused mayhem and a woman known as Chizuru Kagura gathers the fighters Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami in order to look after the seal of the snake demon Orochi. Since Max Mode activations in neutral were almost nonexistent in King of Fighters XIV, the developers are giving more incentive to players to not just use it as a combo extender. Neutral state in XIV was not seen often so in XV attack power and guard crush are increased when neutral is activated. In XIV, combos from quick activation were the main way max mode was used so the gauge consumption was increased from 1 to 2 to prevent players from being overwhelmed. It will also be adjusted as it is apparently quite strong in the demo. Shatter Strike was designed mainly as a defensive system but it can be used offensively when making use of guard points.
Destructoid compared it with a fully charged Focus Attack from Street Fighter IV. The single button "Rush" from The King of Fighters XIV reappears and is updated to help newcomers perform combos and special/super moves easier. The game features a wide variety of online modes, including Ranked Match, Casual Match, Room Match, and Online Training. It also reincorporates the common MAX Mode system where fighters can use stronger techniques once energy bars are filled. The parry system also returns under the name Shatter Strike. Like its predecessors, The King of Fighters XV uses a fighting system involving teams composed of three fighters. Kyo ( left) using Shatter Strike against Iori.
