The twelfth installment of the famous fighting game series, King of Fighters XII , is a massive reinvention of the franchise rebuilt from the ground up both technically and visually to celebrate the series' 15th anniversary. The game features a streamlined battle system and all-new high-resolution character sprites and backgrounds.
Battles are the 3-vs-3 matches that KOF is known for, though the tag system has been removed. The game features a total of 22 fighters, two of which are exclusive to the home release, and all of whom are returning combatants from previous titles.
The game includes a five-round arcade "time attack" mode, online and local versus, practice and replay modes, and an unlockable art gallery. With its improved graphics and gameplay mechanics, King of Fighters XII is sure to satisfy fans of the series and newcomers alike.
