Atlus has uploaded a promotional trailer for The King of Fighters XIV, in line with its presence at E3 2016. At E3 2016, KOF XIV has had player exhibitions available for periods of time each day so far in order for newcomers to get a taste for the game. And perhaps…for players to stomp on their opponents.
Additionally, HORI is producing a line of The King of Fighters XIV arcade sticks for the PlayStation 4. ArcadeShock is running their own preorder promotion, priced at $159.99 at this page. Very early preorders (the first 40) will be eligible to receive a KOF XII plastic folder and a KOF XIII soundtrack disc. These items were not made commercially available at the time of KOF XII and KOF XIII’s release. It’s worth noting that while US-based, ArcadeShock ships items worldwide.
The arcade stick will also be available through other sellers, of course. This Download3K article also provides some technical specifications of the arcade stick, a segment of which I will quote:
According to the technical characteristics, the keys are 1,4 mm thinner than the normal ones, reducing the press motion by 0,3 mm. Furthermore, the controller will have a touch pad on back, programmable actions, L1, L2 and auto fire buttons with frequencies 5, 12 and 20 times per second. Features such as lightbar, sixaxis support, vibration, motion sensors, speakers or headphone jack will not exist.
With that said, view the trailer below! The King of Fighters XIV releases in North America, Japan, and Europe on August 23rd, 25th, and 26th, respectively.
