King of Fighters enthusiasts, get ready for a mix of excitement and nostalgia. While we still mourn the demise of The King of Fighters Allstar, there's fresh news to celebrate: The King of Fighters AFK has launched into early access in Thailand and Canada!
Just last week, pre-registration for both Android and iOS devices kicked off, and now, fans in these regions can dive into this retro RPG-inspired mobile game. Rest assured, NetMarble has confirmed that your progress in the early access phase will seamlessly carry over to the full release.
As you might expect from the title, The King of Fighters AFK brings back beloved characters from the iconic fighting game series to your mobile device. Assemble your team of unique fighters and strategize with diverse formations for engaging 5v5 battles that echo the classic feel of the series.
Prohibido Jugar Con RugalWhile KoF AFK steps into a competitive arena, it faces the challenge of winning back fans. Unlike its predecessor, King of Fighters Allstar, which dazzled with crossovers like those featuring WWE, KoF AFK ventures further from the core fighting game genre.
For those jumping into early access, there's a sweet perk: a guaranteed addition of Mature, a prominent member of the Orochi clan, to your team. The game's Neo-Geo Pocket-inspired visuals may also tug at the heartstrings of long-time fans.
However, convincing fans who've felt let down in the past might be tough. We're all hoping KoF AFK can dispel these doubts and provide a relaxed yet thrilling experience for King of Fighters aficionados.
