The latest entry in the long running The King of Fighters series releases August 23rd on PlayStation 4. Ahead of its launch next month, a demo for The King of Fighters XIV is coming to PSN this Tuesday, July 19.

The demo will feature seven playable characters from the full 50 character roster. Comprised of a mixture of old favorites and new combatants: Kyo Kusanagi, Mai Shiranui, Iori Yagami, Sylvie Paula Paula, King of Dinosaurs, Shun’ei, and Nelson will all be playable in trademark 3 vs. 3 fighting action.

Downloading the demo grants access to a bonus dynamic theme for the game. Watch the KOF XIV story trailer below to see what’s at stake in the latest King of Fighters tournament.

 

 

My Opinion:

When the game was initially revealed, I remember thinking how bad the graphics looked. Since then, the visuals have improved and I’ve come around to accepting them more, although I still prefer the look of the last game in the series. I am impressed with the amount of content in the game and will definitely be downloading the demo on Tuesday.
