Here is a trailer going over the upcoming KOF XV Season 2 DLC.

Shingo first showed up in KOF 97. He uses martial arts when fighting. While he’s being added as a single character here, he also appeared on teams in the past. He was on Team Hero in KOF 99 and on Team Japan for KOF 2001 and 2003.

Meanwhile Kim Kaphwan showed up in both KOF and Fatal Fury games. He’s known for his Tae Kwon Do skills. Many times he appeared as the head of his own team in installments, which was often called Team Kim.

As a reminder, one of the last additions to the game brought Samurai Shodown characters to the cast. Darli Dagger, Haohmaru, and Nakoruru appeared as DLC back in October 2022.

The King of Fighters XV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. The KOF XV Season 2 DLC will kick off with Shingo Yabuki in January 2023.
