The King of Fighters Online
General: The King of Fighters Online is an MMORPG being developed by a Korean producer known as DragonFly and is slated for beta testing in 2010. Not much is known about the project thus far, but it will have 3D graphics and feature many characters from the KOF series.

Beat-em-up... KOF... RPG... Sounds pretty cool.
Loose details so far: It will be a quasi-RPG beat'em up. Players can switch between characters from the games whilst they fight several original villains. They can perform many of the attacks that appear in the series and can level up as they progress. The action is in real time and quick to perform. The only time when the action freezes is to quickly see the entrance of the boss character on the map. Player vs Player options are also available. While so far the only stage seen is a factory, more are in the works and will be environments interactive to the actions of the player. Combos are also a work in progress.

Hopefully it plays at least half as good as it looks.

Final Words: A KOF MMO? Never thought I'd see the day. Heh. Looks like something I'd play for a while, or at least try out... I hope it makes an appearance on consoles though.
KOF Online looks to bring some fresh graphics & animation to the MMO universe (even looks a bit inspired by SF4). I hope it's deeper than it looks. ~F.Yagami, Webmaster of TFG
