Team South America graces us with their presence this week in The King of Fighters XIV’s cycle of playable character videos. I do like the theme music for this team, and their stage background. Wonder if they will also be a favorite of other players of this game? These are all new characters, so be sure to watch the trailer to see what they’re about. Atlus U.S.A.’s character description immediately follows the trailer, in this article.
…but before that, don’t forget about this YouTube archive of 11 exhibition matches played at E3 2016! AtlusUSA has captured the exhibition videos of skilled KOF players and uploaded them to their YouTube account. This is an amazing opportunity to watch great players go at it. The sets are Best of 3, and there are knowledgeable commentators for each match. Don’t miss it!
And now, back to your regularly scheduled team trailer:
The agile members of Team South America — Bandeiras Hattori, Zarina, and Nelson — are focusing their energy towards fighting anyone and everyone in THE KING OF FIGHTERS XIV Tournament!
Even though each member of Team South America are fighting for different reasons, they’ve banded together to help each other out. First off, Bandeiras Hattori is a self-trained ninja who practices the legitimately dangerous art of, uh, Brazilian ninjutsu (not to be confused with Brazilian jiu-jitsu!). Basically, Bandeiras is a 100% certified Brazilian ninja who wants to win the tournament to earn respect and get students for his dojo. Next up is Zarina, the savior of rain forests! She wants to raise money and awareness for the environment, and has zero issues beating up competitors in the name of nature. Zarina will dazzle opponents with her acrobatic Capoeira fighting style and is a strong member of this team. Oh, she’s also bringing along her adorable toucan friend Coco. Lastly, there’s Nelson, the boxing prodigy who wants to punch his way to the top in order to raise money for a loved one. He lost one of his arms in an accident, but was lucky enough to receive a mysterious cybernetic replacement that you could say gives him the upper hand during fights. With his fancy footwork and nasty hooks, Nelson will be a difficult opponent for anyone.
