The
King of Fighters officially abbreviated KOF, is a series of fighting
games by SNK Playmore (formerly SNK). The series was originally
developed for SNK's Neo Geo MVS arcade hardware, which served as the
main platform for the series until 2004, when SNK retired the MVS in
favor of the Atomiswave arcade board. Only two King of Fighters games
were made on the Atomiswave platform (The King of Fighters Neowave and
The King of Fighters XI) before SNK decided to discontinue using the
platform for the series. The current arcade hardware for the series is
the Taito Type X2, with its first usage coming with the release of The
King of Fighters XII. Ports of the arcade games and original The King of
Fighters games have been released for several video games consoles.The
first game in the series,The King of Fighters was released by SNK on
August 25, 1994. The game featured characters from SNK's previous
fighting game series Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting, as well as original
characters (including characters from older games such as Ikari
Warriors and Psycho Soldier, adapted for a versus fighting game). The
success of the game led SNK to release yearly installments of the series
and numbered the games for the year they were released. The King of
Fighters 95 was released on July 25, 1995, with several ports being
released the next year. In addition to adding new characters, this game
also began the first story arc of the series titled The Orochi Saga. KOF
95 was also the first game in the series that allowed the players to
create their own team of three members, out of any character in the
game. The King of Fighters 96, released on July 30, 1996, establishes
the second part of The Orochi Saga and replaced the character sprites
from the previous two years with newly drawn ones, improving the
gameplay of the series as well. Depending on the playable characters in a
team, an exclusive ending will be played. The King of Fighters 97,
released on July 28, 1997, concluded The Orochi Saga story arc. The King
of Fighters 98 was released on July 23, 1998, and unlike the previous
games of the series, it did not feature a story. Instead, the game was
promoted as a Dream Match game that allowed players to choose most of
the characters available from the previous titles, including ones that
were supposedly dead. SNK refitted the Dreamcast version and renamed it
The King of Fighters: Dream Match 1999 with an extended cel animated
introduction and 3D backgrounds.n
July 22, 1999, The King of Fighters 99 was released, which introduced a
new story arc known as The NESTS Chronicles. The game introduces
several new characters into the series, as well as the rule of a fourth
member being added to each team and that a new tactic is introduced in
this game as well. The tactic would be that a specific person from a
team would be an assistant called a Strike and that this person would be
able to aid the team for a few seconds in combat. The Dreamcast version
was titled The King of Fighters: Evolution, with several improvements
in the game such as new strikers and better animation. The King of
Fighters 2000 was released on July 26, 2000, and is the second part of
The NESTS Chronicles.
