Two KOF compilations were released in Japan for the PlayStation 2 as part of the <a href="/wiki/Neo_Geo_Online_Collection" title="Neo Geo Online Collection">Neo Geo Online Collection</a>. The first compilation, The King of Fighters Orochi Hen (ザ·キング·オブ·ファイターズ -オロチ編-, The Orochi Saga) features KOF '95, KOF '96, and KOF '97, the three games comprising the Orochi story arc. The compilation features a Color Edit mode that allows the player to create a custom color palette for every character in each game, the choice to play each game with original and arranged soundtracks, and an online versus mode which supports the Multi-Matching BB (MMBB) service.<a href="#cite_note-rel-50">[49]</a> The second compilation, The King of Fighters NESTS Hen (ザ·キング·オブ·ファイターズ -ネスツ編-, The NESTS Saga), features the original Neo Geo versions of KOF '99, KOF 2000, and KOF 2001, as well as the corresponding Dreamcast versions of each game. It has the same features as the previous compilation but with online support available only for the Dreamcast games in the compilation.<a href="#cite_note-Nests-51">[50]</a> A separately produced compilation titled The King of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Saga was released for the PlayStation 2, <a href="/wiki/PlayStation_Portable" title="PlayStation Portable">PlayStation Portable</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wii" title="Wii">Wii</a> outside of Japan. This compilation has the same lineup of games as the Japanese Orochi Hen, along with KOF '94 and KOF '98. The extra features are different. There is an added Challenge Mode where the player must win certain matches against the CPU in KOF '98 under specific conditions, a media gallery featuring listenable tracks from each game, and a collection of official illustrations.<a href="#cite_note-rel-50">[49]</a> There were also two double-pack compilations, the first being The King of Fighters 2000/2001 (The King of Fighters: The Saga Continues in PAL regions)<a href="#cite_note-52">[51]</a> and The King of Fighters 2002/2003, both on PlayStation 2 and Xbox.<a href="#cite_note-53">[52]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Gameplay_elements">Gameplay elements</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_King_of_Fighters&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Gameplay elements">edit</a>]</div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Gameplay_of_The_King_of_Fighters_%2794.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/ef/Gameplay_of_The_King_of_Fighters_%2794.png/300px-Gameplay_of_The_King_of_Fighters_%2794.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="166" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ef/Gameplay_of_The_King_of_Fighters_%2794.png 1.5x" data-file-width="424" data-file-height="234" /></a><figcaption> A fight between <a href="/wiki/Kyo_Kusanagi" title="Kyo Kusanagi">Kyo</a> (an original character) and <a href="/wiki/Kim_Kaphwan" class="mw-redirect" title="Kim Kaphwan">Kim</a> (Fatal Fury). In the background are Kyo's two teammates (Benimaru and Daimon) who can replace him if he is defeated.</figcaption></figure> The basic gameplay system of KOF is similar to SNK's previous games like the Fatal Fury series, Art of Fighting and Samurai Shodown. The game uses a four attack button configuration like <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury_2" title="Fatal Fury 2">Fatal Fury 2</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury_Special" title="Fatal Fury Special">Fatal Fury Special</a>, that consists of light punch, light kick, strong punch and strong kick. Like Fatal Fury 2, specialized techniques are performed by pressing buttons in combination, allowing the player to dodge an opponent's attack or to launch a character's powerful knockdown attack. As with most other fighting games, each character has a set of basic, unique, and special moves the player can perform using a specific series of joystick and button inputs.<a href="#cite_note-ign_uk-54">[53]</a> Each new installment provides new ways to create stronger attacks such as The King of Fighters '97. Instead of charging the Power Gauge it is now filled when the player strikes the opponent or by performing Special Moves. The player can stock up to three Power Gauges. The player can use one stock of the Power Gauge to perform a Super Special Move or enter a "MAX" mode, in which the player's defensive and offensive strength are increased. Performing a Super Special Move while in MAX mode allows the player to perform a more powerful Super Special Move.<a href="#cite_note-55">[54]</a> The franchise is known for innovating the fighting genre by replacing a traditional round-based format used in preceding fighting games with a format consisting of 3-on-3 team-based matches dubbed the Team Battle System. Instead of choosing a single character, the player selects from one of eight available teams, each consisting of three members. Before each match, the players choose the order in which their team members enter the battle. When the match begins, the members chosen to go first on their respective teams will fight. When one character is defeated, the next member of the same team will take his or her place, while the character on the other team will have a small portion of their life restored (if energy was lost during the previous round). If a character is losing a match against the opponent, then the player can call one of the remaining teammates standing on the sidelines to jump in and perform a support attack. The match ends when all three members of either team lose.<a href="#cite_note-ign-56">[55]</a> Three games—The King of Fighters '99, 2000, and 2001—added the idea of each team being given an extra character that can assist the player to produce more attacks or combos against the enemy.<a href="#cite_note-uve-57">[56]</a> While 2002 brought back the classic 3-o- 3 teams, 2003 and XI made the change so that each team switches fighters in the middle of combat with one of them being a "Leader" character who can perform stronger techniques.<a href="#cite_note-hardcore-58">[57]</a> Later games, however, returned to the classic way of fighting while still delivering different ways and rules of fighting. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Plot_and_characters">Plot and characters</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_King_of_Fighters&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Plot and characters">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/List_of_The_King_of_Fighters_characters" title="List of The King of Fighters characters">List of The King of Fighters characters</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:KOFprotagonists.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9c/KOFprotagonists.png/220px-KOFprotagonists.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="76" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9c/KOFprotagonists.png/330px-KOFprotagonists.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9c/KOFprotagonists.png/440px-KOFprotagonists.png 2x" data-file-width="535" data-file-height="186" /></a><figcaption>The King of Fighters employs different original characters as leads featuring (from left to right) K', Ash Crimson, Shun'ei and Kyo Kusanagi.</figcaption></figure> The titular King of Fighters tournament originated from SNK's previous fighting game franchises, Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting (canonically and chronologically beginning during the events of <a href="/wiki/Art_of_Fighting_2" title="Art of Fighting 2">Art of Fighting 2</a>). The first game in the series, KOF '94, centers on a <a href="/wiki/Black_market" title="Black market">black market</a> arms dealer named Rugal Bernstein, who hosts a well-known fighting tournament to lure worthy adversaries into his trap so that he can kill them and turn them into stone statues, adding them to his collection of defeated martial artists. In addition to previously established fighting game stars <a href="/wiki/Terry_Bogard" title="Terry Bogard">Terry Bogard</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ryo_Sakazaki" title="Ryo Sakazaki">Ryo Sakazaki</a>, the game introduces a new hero: a young Japanese martial artist named <a href="/wiki/Kyo_Kusanagi" title="Kyo Kusanagi">Kyo Kusanagi</a>, who serves as the lead character in the early KOF games. In making Kyo, SNK wanted his personality to contrast with those of earlier leads and stand out within the crossover.<a href="#cite_note-kofanivkyokusan-59">[58]</a> In KOF '95, Rugal, having survived the previous tournament, hosts a new one with the intention of seeking revenge against his adversaries. KOF '95 introduced Kyo's rival <a href="/wiki/Iori_Yagami" title="Iori Yagami">Iori Yagami</a> to the series. It was the first game to mention the presence of the Orochi clan, which would serve as the central plot element in the series' following two games. The tournaments in KOF '96 and KOF '97 are hosted by a woman named <a href="/wiki/List_of_The_King_of_Fighters_characters#Chizuru_Kagura" title="List of The King of Fighters characters">Chizuru Kagura</a>, who seeks to recruit allies (particularly Kyo and Iori, who are descended from the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Regalia_of_Japan" title="Imperial Regalia of Japan">Three Divine Vessels</a> along with Kagura herself) to fight against the Orochi clan. The Orochi storyline concludes in KOF '97.<a href="#cite_note-60">[59]</a> The next game in the series, KOF '98, is a "Special Edition" with no plot development. KOF '99 introduces a new story arc involving a mysterious corporation known as NESTS, which seeks to create an army of genetically altered fighters. The game introduces a new lead character named <a href="/wiki/K%27" title="K'">K'</a>, a fugitive from NESTS who was genetically enhanced with Kyo's DNA.<a href="#cite_note-61">[60]</a> The next two games in the series, KOF 2000 and KOF 2001, continue the NESTS story line, with each game unraveling the mystery of the organization further. KOF 2002, like KOF '98 before it, is a "Special Edition" of the series with no particular plot. Like Kyo, K' was created as a different hero. Rather than the cocky Kyo, K' is a dark hero who reluctantly fights against the NESTS syndicate.<a href="#cite_note-kofperfectk'-62">[61]</a> KOF 2003 begins a new story line focusing on another new lead character named <a href="/wiki/Ash_Crimson" title="Ash Crimson">Ash Crimson</a>, a young man who seeks to possess the powers of the Three Divine Vessels for his own unknown agenda. Similar to K', Ash is given a different characterization acting as a villain during his story arc.<a href="#cite_note-KOF10thAsh-63">[62]</a> The tournaments in KOF 2003 and KOF XI were hosted by "Those From the Past", an organization of inhuman warriors who try to break the Orochi seal to take its powers so they can give them to their shrouded master. While KOF XII does not have a story, KOF XIII follows another tournament hosted by them where Ash eventually confronts their superior despite him being Ash's ancestor.<a href="#cite_note-64">[63]</a> KOF XIV establishes a new storyline involving a new lead character named Shun'ei. Described as a "kind-hearted" person, SNK states that while Shun'ei is not a new main character, he is still important for the saga.<a href="#cite_note-65">[64]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_King_of_Fighters&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Development">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg/220px-Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg/330px-Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg/440px-Festival_du_Jeu_Vid%C3%A9o_-_2010-09-11_-_SNK_Neo-Geo_CD_-_The_King_of_Fighters_%2795.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4000" data-file-height="3000" /></a><figcaption>An example of the Neo Geo CD port of The King of Fighters '95</figcaption></figure> The King of Fighters was originally conceptualized as a side-scrolling <a href="/wiki/Beat_%27em_up" title="Beat 'em up">beat 'em up</a> until SNK changed it to a fighting game that took its subtitle from the first Fatal Fury game: <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury:_King_of_Fighters" title="Fatal Fury: King of Fighters">Fatal Fury: King of Fighters</a>. The King of Fighters was created by game designer Masanori Kuwasashi. He enjoys <a href="/wiki/Tensai_Bakabon" title="Tensai Bakabon">Tensai Bakabon</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ashita_no_Joe" title="Ashita no Joe">Ashita no Joe</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tiger_Mask" title="Tiger Mask">Tiger Mask</a> and <a href="/wiki/Devilman" title="Devilman">Devilman</a>, as well as arcade and Super Famicom games. After working on package design for electronic products, he decided that he would leave to pursue a different career in the video game industry. SNK recruited much of its new staff back in the 1880s and early 1990s. Kuwasashi, Tanabe and Shimizu - under the stewardship of Nishiyama - would go on to form the core of a game development team.<a href="#cite_note-66">[65]</a> The prototype version of the game was a <a href="/wiki/River_City_Ransom" title="River City Ransom">River City Ransom</a>-style TEAM-BATTLE side-scrolling <a href="/wiki/Beat_%27em_up" title="Beat 'em up">beat 'em up</a>. However, the idea was eventually abandoned. They eventually decided to turn their idea into a fighting game. This game was a team battle concept and there were not enough characters, so characters from Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, Ikari Warriors and Psycho Soldier were also added to the roster. The concept of a three-person team was one of the ideas kept from the side-scrolling version.<a href="#cite_note-kofperfectcast1-67">[66]</a> The title The King of Fighters was re-used from the subtitle of the first Fatal Fury game, <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury:_King_of_Fighters" title="Fatal Fury: King of Fighters">Fatal Fury: King of Fighters</a>.<a href="#cite_note-68">[67]</a> The King of Fighters series' director Toyohisa Tanabe asserted that the Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury fighters were added specifically for adults. The newer KOF characters were intended to appeal to younger and recent audiences. Characters like Benimaru Nikaido and Chang Koehan were added to provide an off-beat variety to the cast, which he had previously said was too serious.<a href="#cite_note-kofperfectcast2-69">[68]</a> A major inspiration for this crossover idea was the usage of <a href="/wiki/Ryo_Sakazaki" title="Ryo Sakazaki">Ryo Sakazaki</a> from Art of Fighting as a guest character in <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury_Special" title="Fatal Fury Special">Fatal Fury Special</a>; Bringing Ryo to Fatal Fury revolutioned the idea of the crossover concept that would conceptualize The King of Fighters.<a href="#cite_note-70">[69]</a> While the first two games used the Neo Geo MVS arcade, The King of Fighters '96 includes 68 KB of video RAM and 64 KB of RAM. This made The King of Fighters '96 the first game to break the technical limits of the MVS system.<a href="#cite_note-71">[70]</a> SNK staff members noted that due to the great popularity of some of the series' characters, it is difficult to design new ones that might have the same appeal. This also happens during location tests of new games.<a href="#cite_note-72">[71]</a> During the mid 1990s, The King of Fighters was SNK's most popular IP as their other famous works like <a href="/wiki/Art_of_Fighting_3" class="mw-redirect" title="Art of Fighting 3">Art of Fighting 3</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fatal_Fury_3" class="mw-redirect" title="Fatal Fury 3">Fatal Fury 3</a> were poorly received by the gamers.

As a result, newcomer artist <a href="/wiki/Hiroaki_Hashimoto" title="Hiroaki Hashimoto">Hiroaki Hashimoto</a> felt for his debut that he needed to draw appealing characters, despite his inexperience.<a href="#cite_note-74">[73]</a> For the first time, former producer <a href="/wiki/Takashi_Nishiyama" title="Takashi Nishiyama">Takashi Nishiyama</a> was not on the team for The King of Fighters 2000 which caused the team some concern.<a href="#cite_note-75">[74]</a> Despite early unease over the game's state, SNK was pleased with the outcome and described it as an appealing arcade game. Following its release, SNK thanked the fans for their support.<a href="#cite_note-76">[75]</a> Mexican company <a href="/wiki/Evoga" title="Evoga">Evoga</a> had a major influence on the games due to the franchise's popularity within Latin America.<a href="#cite_note-77">[76]</a> In 2000, SNK went bankrupt. Eolith negotiated a license agreement in the same year to keep producing the KOF series because of the franchise's popularity in Korea and worldwide. BrezzaSoft assisted Eolith with the game's production. Fearing disappointing returning fans, Eolith decided to maintain most of the common parts from The King of Fighters while adding new elements to it. One of the biggest changes is the optional use of Strikers where players can use between one and three characters to assist the playable one. The team aimed to refine the original gameplay system of earlier KOF games. While conducting a popularity poll of the characters, Eolith still aimed to include the least popular teams in the game. The great popularity of Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami led to their immediate inclusion in the game.<a href="#cite_note-78">[77]</a> References to works from Evoga can be seen in the game's scenarios. While working on it, the team played The King of Fighters '98 for the developers to see if they could include a character within the game. A member from Evoga won, resulting in the team asking to add Angel to the game.<a href="#cite_note-evoga-79">[78]</a> Starting in 2003, the games were again developed by SNK, now called SNK Playmore.<a href="#cite_note-1up-80">[79]</a> SNK Playmore discontinued the AES system in 2003, preferring to publish video games in cooperation with <a href="/wiki/Sammy_Corporation" title="Sammy Corporation">Sammy</a>, using its Atomiswave arcade board, which provided a more secure, modern platform for new arcade releases. This allowed the new KOF games to feature better audio and graphics than earlier games.<a href="#cite_note-81">[80]</a> Following the release of the first game in The King of Fighters series, a new game was released each year. The last of these yearly releases was The King of Fighters 2003. In December 2004, <a href="/wiki/Falcoon" title="Falcoon">Falcoon</a>, the series' main illustrator, mentioned that the next game the SNK Playmore staff were trying to release was different from The King of Fighters: Maximum Impact or what could have been a The King of Fighters 2004. The game's development began when SNK staff finished making Neo Geo Battle Coliseum.<a href="#cite_note-82">[81]</a> KOF 2003 would be followed by XI, XII and XIII which had major changes to appeal to the audience.<a href="#cite_note-1up_2-83">[82]</a> The decision to create The King of Fighters XIV was made when SNK Playmore's CEO Eikichi Kawasaki decided the company should return to producing appealing fighting games rather than Pachinko-Slot Machines and Mobile Apps. While it took some time, full production of the game began when more staff from Esaka joined the team in April 2014.<a href="#cite_note-84">[83]</a><a href="#cite_note-85">[84]</a> Yasuyuki Oda was the game's director. This was his first contribution to the franchise, leading a younger staff. During his first employment at SNK, games like <a href="/wiki/Virtua_Fighter_(video_game)" title="Virtua Fighter (video game)">Virtua Fighter</a> motivated him to make a 3D game after he had left SNK. When Oda returned to SNK, there was never any debate about transitioning the series transition from 2D to 3D, though adapting some of the characters proved more difficult than others.<a href="#cite_note-Famitsu-86">[85]</a> Many of SNK's staff consider KOF '98 and KOF 2002 the best games in the franchise. They gave them ideas to create new entries in the series that would surpass the quality of these two games.<a href="#cite_note-fourgamerfirst-87">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-88">[87]</a> During a contest, SNK used the DLC character Najd based on the <a href="/wiki/Saudis" title="Saudis">Saudi Arabian</a> artist Mashael. SNK Chairman Zhihui Ge expressed a desire to attract more Middle Eastern fans to play the game. He also hired new creators during the post-release of XIV.<a href="#cite_note-89">[88]</a> In retrospect, Oda said the SNK game studio was revived with KOFXIV, resulting in the company finally making more Samurai Shodowns, Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting games in future years. Oda wishes the company could keep doing this.<a href="#cite_note-90">[89]</a> SNK decided to make XV while they were still working on XIV but only started development after <a href="/wiki/Samurai_Shodown_(2019_video_game)" title="Samurai Shodown (2019 video game)">Samurai Shodown</a> was completed.<a href="#cite_note-4gamer-91">[90]</a> Feeling the previous title had outdated graphics for a 2016 game, SNK chairman Zhihui Ge said that XV would the <a href="/wiki/Unreal_Engine_4" title="Unreal Engine 4">Unreal Engine 4</a> to provide a better presentation.<a href="#cite_note-engine-92">[91]</a> Oda has compared Shun'ei to <a href="/wiki/Rock_Howard" title="Rock Howard">Rock Howard</a>, and says that his story could end up being as fun to write as Rock's.
