King of Fighters
“The King of Fighters” (KOF) is a series of fighting video games produced by SNK. It all started in 1994 with the game The King of Fighters 94. Originally, these games were produced for SNK’s Neo Geo MVS arcade machine. They used Neo Geo MVS until 2004, when they decided to switch to another arcade machine called Atomiswave. They produced two King of Fighters games for Atomiswave, namely “The King of Fighters Neowave” and “The King of Fighters XI”. But since then, SNK stopped using Atomiswave.
Now, the newest arcade machine they’re using is called the Taito Type X2, and they started using it in The King of Fighters XII. They also made versions of these games for different video game consoles. The latest game in the series is called “The King of Fighters XV” and will be launched in February 2022.
