We get to see another returning fight, but he is different from all those revealed so far. He has not appeared in recent times and the last time he has taken part in a mainline KOF game was with The King of Fighters 2002.

This means that he is back after 19 years of absence, with Keisuke Hamaoka lending his voice again after debuting as Yashiro in The King of Fighters World in 2017.

He’s one of the Four Heavenly King of Orochi, and below you can see that he hasn’t lost his touch with his very own trailer and images included in the accompanying press release.

At the moment, no information was provided on the team he’ll fight with, but that will likely be revealed at a later date.

The King of Fighters XV is slated for release in 2021, but we don’t yet know which platforms it will support.

If you want to see more, you can check out the first trailer, the first gallery of screenshots, and the trailers that revealed Shun’eiMeitenkunBenimaru NikaidoIori YagamiJoe HigashiKyo Kusanagi, Chizuru KaguraAndy Bogard, Yuri Sakazaki, and Terry Bogard.

We also know that an animated short by Masami Obari is also going to be published down the line to promote the game. That being said, we don’t know when it’s coming just yet.
