The King of Fighters XIV Introduces Newcomer Antonov, Getting A Demo On July 19

Recommended Videos

SNK Playmore had several announcements to make this weekend for EVO 2016, where we got to see newcomer billionaire Antonov, a date for its upcoming demo, and new trailers.

 

A villainous eccentric billionaire/man-mountain who bought the rights to the King of Fighters brand in order to host a new tournament. The self proclaimed “One True King of Fighters” has an array of devastating strikes and bone-crunching grappling that will make him a tough opponent to face. I mean, anyone who sports glorious mutton chops and wears a championship belt during a fight must be near unbeatable right?

 

Following is a look at the story trailer for The King of Fighters XIV.

 

As for the demo, it will be available on the PlayStation Store worldwide on July 19 for the Americas and Europe and July 20 for Asia. Players will get to test drive seven characters out of Kyo Kusanagi, Mai Shiranui, Iori Yagami, Sylvie Paula Paula, King of Dinosaurs, Shun-ei, and Nelson. The demo won’t have online functionality, but local versus mode will be available. Additionally, the demo will include a free dynamic PS4 theme.
