It's that time of year again! The King of Fighters XIV tournament is just around the corner, and to whet our appetites; two more fighters have been revealed. First up is Billy Kane, a classic fighting game character from Street Fighter II. Juri Han, another character from SFII who has been remade for KOF XIV, is with him. In addition to these new fighters, other changes have been made to the game's beta test. Now you can compete in lobbies with friends instead of being matched against AI opponents, and you can also see how your friends are performing in real-time. Plenty of time is left to sign up for the beta test, so check out the official website for more information. In the meantime, let us know which fighter you're most looking forward to playing in the comments below!
King of Fighters XIV: New Character Revealed
Kyo Kusanagi, the King of Fighters XIV main character, has been revealed! He's voiced by Takashi Nagasako (Goku in Dragon Ball Super), and his fighting style is based on using a Kusanagi sword. He has a new move set with a powerful attack called "Reppa." Two more characters, Leona Heidern from the Metal Gear games and Mila Kunis from The Matrix, have also been shown.
Plus, 3 More Fighters were Announced for King of Fighters XIV
The latest fighter to be announced for King of Fighters XIV is a character named Iori Yagami. The Japanese artist responsible for the character's design is Tomotaka Takasaki, who has worked on previous titles in the franchise, including KOF 2002 and KOF 2003.
He joins the game as part of a three-player team called "Team Iori," including Ryo Sakazaki from Street Fighter III and Billy Kane from Tekken 6. As well as these three characters, it was confirmed that six more fighters would join the game at launch: Kyo Kusanagi, Silva, Leo Whitefang, Millia Rage, Hibiki Ganaha, and Azuma Kagura.
With over 30 characters in total now confirmed for King of Fighters XIV, it seems likely that we'll be seeing even more very soon. The game has no release date yet, but we expect to hear more about it during Sony's PlayStation Experience event in December this year. In the meantime, you can watch the official website for further updates!
Costume and Battle Theme Revealed for King of Fighters XIV
The King of Fighters XIV development team has finally revealed the costume and battle theme for one of the new characters in the game- Kyo Kusanagi! The costume is based on his appearance in the original King of Fighters game, while the battle theme is a remix of his classic fighting theme from that game. Additionally, we've got some additional information about Kyo Kusanagi.
First and foremost, Kyo Kusanagi is voiced by actor Yuichi Nakamura (Gintama's Shinpachi Shimura, Attack on Titan's Eren Yeager). Nakamura did a fantastic job bringing Kyo to life, and we can't wait to see him in action in KOF XIV.
Kyo also has some unique moves planned for him in the game. For instance, he can use his Tatsumaki Senpukyaku (Rising Wind Kick) to throw opponents into the air. He can follow up with attacks on them while they're high in the air. Alternatively, he can use this move to start combos quickly.
We're excited to learn more about Kyo Kusanagi and look forward to playing as him in King of Fighters XIV when it launches later this year!
Kof Mugen Wf Orochi Iori Dreamform Sula

Fighters can pre-order the game now and receive early access to the Dream Form starting on March 3rd. The game will be released on April 20th for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Gameplay Footage Released for King of Fighters XIV
Kairi Sane is the newest fighter to join the King of Fighters XIV roster, a young girl who wields a staff that can manipulate time. Her movie set has been shown off in gameplay footage, and she is a compelling character with much potential. The rest of the fighters in the game are also looking very strong, with unique fighting styles that should appeal to fans of the series. More characters will be revealed soon, so stay tuned for more news about this brand-new entry in the KOF series!
