King
of Fighters 2002: Unlimited Match Coming To Playstation Network in Some Form
or Another
|
|
|
Sony Computer
Entertainment has just been listed as the publisher for King of Fighters
2002: Unlimited Match on Korea's ratings board. This is great news for KOF
fans, as KOF2002:UM is regarded as one of the best and most competitive KOF
titles to date. However, it's currently unclear if KOF2002: UM will
arrive on Sony platforms as a "PS2 Classic" or a remastered,
online-enabled port. We also don't know which regions (besides Korea) the game
will be released in. (Source:

A Wild Iori Appears on
SNK Playmore Recruitment Page, New King of Fighters Still in Development?
|
|
|
SNK Playmore's Japanese employment
page has been updated with a 3D render of Iori Yagami, taking the place of
Kyo Kusanagi as the header banner. While SNK Playmore hasn't officially revealed
or announced a new KOF yet, their most recent actions and comments
strongly suggest a 2.5D/3D KOF game is still in the works. Currently,
their recruitment page is seeking a game programmer, along with technical &
CG designers. Hopefully something solid will be revealed in 2015.

Trailer

new PS4/PS3 JoJo Bizarre Adventure game announced by Bandai Namco does
