After 6 years, KOF makes it's grand return, with a plethora of classic and new characters alike for a total roster 50 (+8 DLC characters) transitioning back into 3D for the first time since 2006 and maintaining the solid gameplay the series is known for, on what is SNK's "We're back, we missed you" game.
The graphics isn't too bad, but it's just KOF XV has better graphics.

The game also contains a gallery filled with illustrations and posters from both previous KOF games and XIV, sound and voice files from every single character, Story Mode cutscenes as well as each team's endings.
-this game input interface is using sdl2,the controller,joystick,joypad compatibility is based on user submitted mapping, compatibility is not good compare to other game that use directinput or xinput. i personally got 1 arcade stick[Roydsstick.EX for ps3] that would not work without using joytokey, which increase the input delay to unplayable.if u got a popular branded joypad or joystick like HORI/MADCATZ/QANBA/ETOKKI/RAZER its mostly supported.
