The King of Fighters XIV

The King of Fighters XIV is an upcoming installment of The King of Fighters series. It was first announced during the SCEJA Press Conference 2015. Street Fighter IV battle designer, Yasuyuki Oda, will be the director.

Gameplay
The King of Fighters XIV will feature 3D models on a 2D plane while keeping the same formula used in earlier games in the series. A new Max mode system allows access to EX moves; activating this state requires one bar of the power gauge. Using three bars of the gauge can allow players to unleash Climax supers. Repeatedly hitting the light punch button will perform an automatic combo attack called Rush mode; this will do lower damage compared to normal combo attacks. The CD thrust system now causes opponents to hit the wall and vulnerable to followup attacks. The game will have a cast of 50 characters split into teams of three.
