I realized there wasn't a thread on this yet
So the 2nd trailer dropped today
Looks better than the first trailer but still not looking that good

XIV looks like a PS2 game. It just looks horrible. My expectations on gameplay have been low since I found out the game's director was the battle designer for SFIV.

This looks like butt. I still can't believe they scrapped what they had going with KOF12/13 for this trash.
I was surprised to see the PS4 logo because I honestly thought that it was a portable. Still, if it's mid-price, who doesn't love KoF?
Oh yeah, this isn't really new, but there's nothing about it here either. The maybe leaked roster:

- Fatal Fury Team: Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard, 东丈 (Joe Higashi)
- Art of Fighting Team: 坂崎良 (Ryo Sakazaki), Robert Garcia, 坂崎百合 (Yuri Sakazaki)
- K’ Team: K’, Maxima, Kula Diamond
- Kim Team: 金家藩 (Kim Kaphwan), 他师父 (Kim’s Master), 他师母 (Kim’s Wife)
- Criminal Team: 犯人陈 (Prisoner Chang Koehan), 犯人蔡 (Prisoner Choi Bounge), 新人囚犯 (Newcomer Prisoner)
- Women Fighters Team: 不知火舞 (Mai Shiranui), King, Alice
- Ikari Team: Ralf Jones, Clark Still, Leona Heidern
- Psycho Soldier Team: Athena Asamiya, 椎拳崇 (Sie Kensou), 摸元斋 (Chin Gentsai)
- Yagami Team: 八神庵 (Iori Yagami), Mature, Vice
- Mexico Team: Ramon, Angel, Tizoc
- Palace Wan Team: 脸谱女 (Acting Mask Girl), 电属性少女歌手 (Teenage Girl Singer with Electric Element), 神秘兜帽男 (Mysterious Hooded Man)
- South Town Team: Geese Howard, Billy Kane, 营家新人 (?)
- South America Team: 巴西忍者 (Brazilian Ninja), 残障拳击手 (Handicap Boxer), 拉丁美女 (Pretty Latin Girl)
- Alternate World Team: 娜可露露 (Nakoruru), Love Heart, 龙娘 (Mui Mui)
- Mid-boss: 俄罗斯富豪 (Russian Billionaire)
- Final Boss: 人形态非人类物种 (Non-Human Species)
Making new ones would be the problem. Bringing in old characters that need a touch up to making brand new characters. The newer characters in KoF13 were head swaps (Hwa Jai, Saiki). Making the sprites in any meaningful way would be out of the question as the animators would need to redraw the frames.
I'd be quite fine if that leaked roster turns out to be true. I just really want Angel back as a playable character lol.
kof13 was one of the best fighting games I've ever played and this feels like a step back.
Did it bomb so badly that this is causing the full overhaul??
edit: and I so want a chaos mode tournament. aka. you select randomly and work with what you got.
It's a great way to confirm balance and honestly, it's seriously missing in street fighter and mk (or do you like fighting the same 3-4 character's over and over again online?)

Well, after 13 SNK basically quit making video games, and focused on Pachinko slot machines. They're doing this now because SNK got bought up this year.
Looking forward to be able to play as Angel again even if I'm absolutely terrible with her lol.
