Yeah. I don’t know why some people are extremely disappointed in this. Without a doubt we’ll get dlc characters and the roster will go up anyway. Game is looking great
@@metalgamer8179 What does reusing animations actually mean tho? Cause you know technically Ryu has been reusing that hadoken animation for decades. Isnt it just the same animation but with different models? When does reusing animations become okay and when is it not?
KoF series practically has 100 characters excluding the Maximum Impact side series, and 39 is less than KoF XIV starting roster, hence the disappointment.
39 characters is a really good starting size for a 3 on 3 game, and they chose a mix of some good fan favorites and new comers all in all good cast so far
Count it again theres 42+(?) They dont count the team on the bottom or the placeholders on top. Ine of which is by itself, which is obviously this games equivalent to antonov in 14. And unless they plan on releasing 4 teams as dlc (which is 4 more characters than 14 did) i think that entire row is unlockable , im certain they didnt count them cuz they NEED to be unlocked

Visually speaking, the SFIV and MvC3 series were some of Capcom’s most beautiful looking fighting games. I’m glad SNK is following the cel-shaded style for their fighting games (SamSho and now KoF). KoFXV’s a huge upgrade from its last entry.
The characters look like they came straight from Eisuke Ogura's pen. It's fucking crazy if you remember that SNK barely managed to fool death for the second time.
KOF XIV...didn't have an art style they just didn't know what direction to take until they made Samurai Showdown which is weird because they have done 3D games before (Maximum Impact) and they looked good for their time. I'm happy that they didn't go the rumored Arc System works route with the 2.5D style.
Is it bad that the one point i got most excited about was the fact that Masami Obari is directing the animated short? I mean the game looks great but getting the old Fatal Fury director of the 90s to come back is pretty big in its own sense, granted he's still an active director i believe.
Glad to see I wasn't the only one hyped about that! :) I actually love the second and third Fatal Fury movies. Heck, I think Krauser in the movies is much better than in the games. Jajaja.
One thing you gotta remember about the 50 characters in XIV is that they all looked like PS2 models. So much more polish is in these ones, so I personally don’t mind a slightly smaller roster

Its still less than xiv, and given that the characters seem to play mostly the same and use mostly the same animations, I dont really get why they couldnt include a few more. Unless, they go the samsho route and give a few of them for free, like two teams, and then make you pay for the other two teams.
@@humbertoharo6840 I think possibly in the future they'll be releasing dlc teams which is cool.

As much as I liked most the new characters in 14 no point wasting time and money on characters that fans dont actually like or pick
@@thekid8224 nevermind the new characters, there are still a few classic characters that were in xiv and seeing that there are only 7 spaces in the new rooster, its difficult to see many of them making it.
@@salhyy9962 if they pull that, it's done. Good effort SNK but after STRIVE, rollback is a must to compete. The space can't grow if it's that hard to play people remotely.
Max at the first trailer: Well we got to see some glimpses of what I wanted to see for a bit so that's pretty satisfying. Max at the REAL trailer: MY EXPECTATIONS HAVE BEEN SHATTERED AND MY DAY HAS VASTLY IMPROVED!
The new girls genuinely look super cool. Especially the one with the dreads, like holy shit. Genuinely of the best designed characters ever. Honestly also excited for the cosplay community.
Same here, because let's be honest, Shun'ei's design is an artistic travesty. His colour pallet is all over the place, the clothes he wears clash with eachother, it is way too busy and he's the pinacle of overdesigned.
@@arjanzweers6542 Yeahhhh.... The pants leg rolled up + the weird wallet chain(?) can go, and he'd look fine after that I think. But those two things just confuse me so much.
@@rawrharhar he is way too busy with his look. So it lacks a timelessness feel compared to the other heroes, although it is growing on me. Speaking of heroes, I really want Adel back.
It feels like someone vomited a bunch of anime tropes onto a single character and never sorted them in a coherent way. Not even the colors. Its so bad and its annoying that he's apparently a big main character lol.
I actually got chills when I saw there is 300 songs from the series in this game. I don't pre-order much anymore but I'll definitely pre-order this just like I did 14.
I was hype at the system reveal, but that rollback netcode did it for me AND that damn artwork at the end of the trailer is ridiculously crisp so damn good looking.
9:37 Is when max finally shatters his expectation and a few windows.. The remaining roster in my best guess seem to be k` team so kula and maxima, ash team so elizabeth and duolon, ill wager that kim kapwhan will be in KOF XV they didn't add the girl with the braids to the other new girls team but i bet that is the case which will only leave one new character in the main roster. other wise she would lead her own team of new fighters. and then there are the remaining 13 dlc slots. Since one is not attached to a team. and the koy idea of members being brought back from the dead. i could just be Geese or Rugal. I cant wait to see how wrong i am.
OBARI??? That's the guy that did the original KOF animated movie! (among a ton others, he's responsible for a ton of mecha shows and designs, absolute legend)
0:38 Ryo's Tsuki so powerful he unpluged Max's controller lol. Joke apart, looks like Kof will rise and shine again ! It looks good and the mechanics are here. I never really try deeply the Kof serie, but it might be the time !
The single entry on the character select screen could be the final boss. When KOFXIV launched they were like "48 characters!" but you unlocked antonov AND Verse rounding it to 50. It's probably the same case here, 39 characters but 40 if you unlock the final boss. Also no Kim yet and that's weird.
I'm so hype for this game, not to mention it comes out on my BIRTHDAY😁!!! HELL YEAHHHHH!!!! It's so nice to see Ash again. I'm happy as hell. My girl is definitely buying this for my birthday. February 17th can't come soon enough!
Hmm he seems genuinely interested in the series now though. Before he wouldn’t even acknowledge it. And of course those are his fav characters so that’s definitely a draw as well.
Fighting games were always relevant. Though it's now pouring into most of the world due to Guilty Gear Strive. A single person is incapable of doing that no matter how you look at it.
@@XerosigmaZ agree to disagree on this one, in no way are you wrong in your views just I dont personally think someone that only has an interest in two characters can be completely interested in the franchise as a whole. This was by far the best trailer so far with a lot of info and the three things max noticed was rock not being in the base roster, rollback netcode and Terry's dlc costume
@@Honest_Mids_Masher yeah I agree with you fighting games has always had a strong community. Why do think it's because of GGS that fighting games is becoming globally more popular
Max getting pleasured to Terry’s DLC costume. I wanna see a GMOTW sequel in 3D. Imagine Rock Howard is going to be the next Geese in the Second Southtown, alongside Kain R. Heinlein & Grant.
04:55 Yashiro learned how to play league of legends and streaming on twitch so at the end of the game, he'll probably rage quit on us (or he is just watching some melons)
I swear i see people complaining that the KoF XIV roster was too big and intimidating and now i see people saying that the KoF XV roster is too small like wtf, 39 is a great number and its only going to increase once its released, also the adition of rollback and all the music is really fucking nice
I saw this trailer in the morning and when i saw bomber jacket terry, i knew i needed to see Max's reaction since in the terry trailer max wished for Garou terry as a costume
So the new DJ STATION is going to have over 300 songs!? Even the music from KOF2001 and vanilla 2002? Yay! I like those soundtracks. My favorite tracks in 2001 are NESTS Ruler of the Dark, 0, I am the Mightiest, Queen of Fighters, My Whip, Psychic Guys and Flames of Invincibility. My favorite tracks in vanilla 2002 are Tears (2002 version), Seoul Ni Ikou! (2002), Last Dance, Deserted Town, Tacos Dance, Napolitan Trance, The Netherlands and Violent Fire, Lightning, Earth.
300 tracks mean that we will probably have the entire soundtrack of the series from 95 to 2002 and then back to 2013. What I´m saying is that Esaka would be there, and I can't wait for it.
39 characters is fine, in old KOF there were much less (kof 99 specifically had 32 characters) also street fighter 5 on its launch day they sold a beta disguised as a full game
@@Honest_Mids_Masher Smash takes a bunch of it's mechanics from KOF including Short Hops, Spot Dodge, Roll Evading, the smash invitation Letters when they announce new characters is a direct rip off of the letters that Rugal sends out to the contestants of KOF, Sakurai himself said KOF inspired him to make Smash Bros as he was a huge fan of the series and Iori is his favorite character, and more.
damn kof 13 has long been the most visually impressive kof (best 2d animated fighter ever imo) but the polish on kof 15 is looking so good im shocked and hype
Man, where are they going to fit Kim Kaphwan? i cant believe this is going to be the first KOF game without him in the base roster. anyway, pretty dope trailer. Im actually excited for the game now that it has rollback.
The snk team actually understands that it's ok to make characters look different, unlike capcom who wants every character to be as blonde and non-ethnic looking as possible.
so much has changed from the fateful day i played Fatal Fury when i was in middle school in 1991. my first powah wave at the arcades felt like a bolt of lightning through my body. i still play the classics through retro setups at home. just feels right.
Heidern might end up teaming with K'. Also Oswald might be with Ash as he was originally part of his team. But seriously looking good so far. I'm hoping that maybe the top row are unlockable characters cause even with 6 dlc characters there are still 3 slots left with the single slot being the boss character.
The top row has 13 slots so its safe to say that one of them will be for the game's boss. I'd love for there to be some unlockable characters but you know SNK has seen its rivals charge for DLC characters and wants to get in on that sooner this time.
@@patrickhoneyman9019 sadly dlc characters is the norm now. They said they will be adding 6 characters as dlc so that still leaves 3 characters slots 🤔
@@faizanshamim7531 If you're referring to the base roster then that's true. If you're including the potential DLC there are 12 slots above where the protagonist teams show, then a solo one to the right of those which will probably be reserved for the game's boss.
@@patrickhoneyman9019 yup I'm referring to the base roster. The top row has 13 characters. The single slot is definitely the boss and 6 slots are dlc so that still leaves 3 slots. Hopefully they will do a team with Rugal, vice and mature

@@arthurgomes5188 i will let you know that the smt games that only 5 people played have the most normal human designs lol. He is more like a Guilty gear character if there was a school student as a character
A lot of SNK characters look over designed...😶
@@christophergarcia9022 are you sure? Because honestly you could have told me that he was supposed to be the protagonist of Devil Survivor 3 or something and i would have believed you.
“ROLLBACK NETCODE”
Max: 👁👄👁
35-40 characters is actually the norm for KoF. The dream matches and XIV were the exceptions.
Thank you someone that actually plays kof
Its still less than xiv, and given that the characters seem to play mostly the same and use mostly the same animations, I dont really get why they couldnt include a few more. Unless, they go the samsho route and give a few of them for free, like two teams, and then make you pay for the other two teams.
@@humbertoharo6840 I think possibly in the future they'll be releasing dlc teams which is cool. But also keep in mind a lot of the new characters people didn't like them there were 2 different polls and luong was the most popular out the new characters but placed in the 20's all classic snk characters placed before her. As much as I liked most the new characters in 14 no point wasting time and money on characters that fans dont actually like or pick
@@thekid8224 nevermind the new characters, there are still a few classic characters that were in xiv and seeing that there are only 7 spaces in the new rooster, its difficult to see many of them making it.
@@thekid8224 Exactly. Barring the series staple like Kyo, most likely a lot will be the newcomers with old fan favorites being DLC.
I think it’s safe to say my expectations have been shattered after hearing the words
rollback netcode
Remember sf5 rollback and cross your fingers .
@@salhyy9962 if they pull that, it's done. Good effort SNK but after STRIVE, rollback is a must to compete. The space can't grow if it's that hard to play people remotely.
*SFV flashbacks*
Max at the first trailer: Well we got to see some glimpses of what I wanted to see for a bit so that's pretty satisfying.
Max at the REAL trailer: MY EXPECTATIONS HAVE BEEN SHATTERED AND MY DAY HAS VASTLY IMPROVED!
No matter how long I have to wait, I have a good feeling about this game
A great man from Nintendo used to say a delayed game turns out to eventually be good but a rushed game is bad forever.
@@patrickhoneyman9019 well that guy is clearly a genius
@@featherpheasant3851 you might of hear of him. Just a janitor by the name of Shigeru Miyamoto.
The new girls genuinely look super cool. Especially the one with the dreads, like holy shit. Genuinely of the best designed characters ever. Honestly also excited for the cosplay community.
I love the new characters too! But one correction, those are cornrows/braids, not dreads.
As an older man I love hearing Max grumble about Shun'ei and the other new Heroes.
Same here, because let's be honest, Shun'ei's design is an artistic travesty. His colour pallet is all over the place, the clothes he wears clash with eachother, it is way too busy and he's the pinacle of overdesigned.
@@arjanzweers6542 You a sugar punch design works fan as well? TBH I like Shun'ei, just not that old school West coast "pull up one pants leg" look.
@@arjanzweers6542 Yeahhhh.... The pants leg rolled up + the weird wallet chain(?) can go, and he'd look fine after that I think. But those two things just confuse me so much.
@@rawrharhar he is way too busy with his look. So it lacks a timelessness feel compared to the other heroes, although it is growing on me. Speaking of heroes, I really want Adel back.
It feels like someone vomited a bunch of anime tropes onto a single character and never sorted them in a coherent way. Not even the colors. Its so bad and its annoying that he's apparently a big main character lol.
I’m calling it right now: KOF XV is gonna be the best fighting game of 2022.
Honestly, SFVI will have a hard time matching this.
It's been so long since SNK displayed this much power; not even KOFXIII comes close to this.
"Terry fucks" -Maximilian Dood 2021
I actually got chills when I saw there is 300 songs from the series in this game.
I don't pre-order much anymore but I'll definitely pre-order this just like I did 14.
darn it SNK, I have my wallet out. gimme!XD
9:37 The moment garouTerry awakens something inside Max😂
If Max's first online match is against Sleepy Boy and Confused Clothing Man, I'd give that player $50
I'd wish all fighting games had the features this game just announced, can you imagine? Every cool and good feature as a damn standard
Online training is good to me
@@topshotta2000 pretty damn good!
I was hype at the system reveal, but that rollback netcode did it for me AND that damn artwork at the end of the trailer is ridiculously crisp so damn good looking.
Nobody:
Nobody:
Snk: Rollback netc-
Max: This is the greatest KOF 15 trailer!!!!
9:37 Is when max finally shatters his expectation and a few windows..
The remaining roster in my best guess seem to be k` team so kula and maxima, ash team so elizabeth and duolon, ill wager that kim kapwhan will be in KOF XV they didn't add the girl with the braids to the other new girls team but i bet that is the case which will only leave one new character in the main roster. other wise she would lead her own team of new fighters.
and then there are the remaining 13 dlc slots.
Since one is not attached to a team. and the koy idea of members being brought back from the dead. i could just be Geese or Rugal.
I cant wait to see how wrong i am.
Trailer: here’s the story!
Max: yeah okay
Trailer: Rollback netcode
Max: W H A T?!
Max’s heart grew 5 sizes that day
Let’s be real rollback>>>>>story mode
OBARI??? That's the guy that did the original KOF animated movie! (among a ton others, he's responsible for a ton of mecha shows and designs, absolute legend)
Bruh, Max had to change his pants once Garou Terry showed up. lmao
0:38 Ryo's Tsuki so powerful he unpluged Max's controller lol. Joke apart, looks like Kof will rise and shine again ! It looks good and the mechanics are here. I never really try deeply the Kof serie, but it might be the time !
My expectations are immeasurable, and my day is shattered 😉👌
The single entry on the character select screen could be the final boss. When KOFXIV launched they were like "48 characters!" but you unlocked antonov AND Verse rounding it to 50. It's probably the same case here, 39 characters but 40 if you unlock the final boss.
Also no Kim yet and that's weird.
I was gonna start singing “ITS TIME TO MAKE HISTORY HEYYYY!”
7:36 Words to get Max, and the entire FGC mad hype.
I'm so hype for this game, not to mention it comes out on my BIRTHDAY😁!!! HELL YEAHHHHH!!!! It's so nice to see Ash again. I'm happy as hell. My girl is definitely buying this for my birthday. February 17th can't come soon enough!
This trailer was awesome!! I’m glad Max is giving SNK and KOF the attention they deserve. Fighting games are becoming very fun and relevant again!
Is he though or is he just wanting to see Terry and rock
Hmm he seems genuinely interested in the series now though. Before he wouldn’t even acknowledge it. And of course those are his fav characters so that’s definitely a draw as well.
Fighting games were always relevant. Though it's now pouring into most of the world due to Guilty Gear Strive. A single person is incapable of doing that no matter how you look at it.
@@XerosigmaZ agree to disagree on this one, in no way are you wrong in your views just I dont personally think someone that only has an interest in two characters can be completely interested in the franchise as a whole. This was by far the best trailer so far with a lot of info and the three things max noticed was rock not being in the base roster, rollback netcode and Terry's dlc costume
@@Honest_Mids_Masher yeah I agree with you fighting games has always had a strong community. Why do think it's because of GGS that fighting games is becoming globally more popular
Max getting pleasured to Terry’s DLC costume. I wanna see a GMOTW sequel in 3D.
Imagine Rock Howard is going to be the next Geese in the Second Southtown, alongside Kain R. Heinlein & Grant.
the funny thing is when i saw the terry costume, i was like "Max is gonna flip so fucking hard!"
lol I thought the same thing.
I can’t wait to see this game’s tournament scene
I really hope Remy makes it in dude.
Also the announcer sounds like FilthyFrank doing his "lifehack" voice 😂
04:55 Yashiro learned how to play league of legends and streaming on twitch so at the end of the game, he'll probably rage quit on us (or he is just watching some melons)
Oh no... no my boi Yashiro
He's gonna rage quit like low tier god lol
Lol! Max's reaction to the DLC Terry outfit had me hollerin'!
I swear i see people complaining that the KoF XIV roster was too big and intimidating and now i see people saying that the KoF XV roster is too small like wtf, 39 is a great number and its only going to increase once its released, also the adition of rollback and all the music is really fucking nice
Its almost like different people complain about different things...
Ash brought a whole new hype to the game!
He really didn't he made me mad!
@@nxzavian I am mad! And disappointed
@@skeetermagee2487 Sucks to be you.
@@nxzavian I hate Ash!
He's annoying and garbage
@@KuroNoTenno It's great to me bro trust me
I saw this trailer in the morning and when i saw bomber jacket terry, i knew i needed to see Max's reaction since in the terry trailer max wished for Garou terry as a costume
Day 1 DLC: MotW Terry.
Every player: *"I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK."*
I looove that the first word in their Online Battle section of the trailer is "Rollback"
I like how the rollback netcode had to kick in when max heard it was there. 😂
So the new DJ STATION is going to have over 300 songs!?
Even the music from KOF2001 and vanilla 2002? Yay!
I like those soundtracks.
My favorite tracks in 2001 are NESTS Ruler of the Dark, 0, I am the Mightiest, Queen of Fighters, My Whip, Psychic Guys and Flames of Invincibility.
My favorite tracks in vanilla 2002 are Tears (2002 version), Seoul Ni Ikou! (2002), Last Dance, Deserted Town, Tacos Dance, Napolitan Trance, The Netherlands and Violent Fire, Lightning, Earth.
"ROLL BACK NET-" *Sold.*
Also roster wise I'm set cause Dino boy, Clark, Mai, Robert and Ryo are here.
300 tracks mean that we will probably have the entire soundtrack of the series from 95 to 2002 and then back to 2013. What I´m saying is that Esaka would be there, and I can't wait for it.
U mean 94
Going to bust in Ketchaku R&D all day long.
"Goodbye, Esaka" plz GOD
I saw Metal Slug, SamSho and NeoGEO stuff in there. It is going to be even more diverse than we hope.
@@Necromagenvi0n U WILL UNDAHSTAND THE CONCEPT OF LOVE
39 characters is fine, in old KOF there were much less (kof 99 specifically had 32 characters)
also street fighter 5 on its launch day they sold a beta disguised as a full game
This looks like SNK trying to make their own Smash Ultimate with that gallery mode
Considering that Smash is basically KOF down to it's core, I'd say that's a fair assumption.
@@MarkLoweCEO How is smash KoF?
@@Honest_Mids_Masher Smash takes a bunch of it's mechanics from KOF including Short Hops, Spot Dodge, Roll Evading, the smash invitation Letters when they announce new characters is a direct rip off of the letters that Rugal sends out to the contestants of KOF, Sakurai himself said KOF inspired him to make Smash Bros as he was a huge fan of the series and Iori is his favorite character, and more.
@@starbreaker6441 Gallery modes have been present in KOF games before Guilty Gear was created.
@@MarkLoweCEO when you put it like that I do see the correlation between the two games.
Max is a good friend, 2/14 isn’t Valentine’s Day for him, it’s KENNY’S BIRTHDAY
Man, I knew he was gonna be nuttin' over Terry's Mark of the Wolves outfit! We ALL were! XD
when i heard the word "rollback netcode" i just knew that max would go beyond nuts and that garou terry was a nice cherry on the top
damn kof 13 has long been the most visually impressive kof (best 2d animated fighter ever imo) but the polish on kof 15 is looking so good im shocked and hype
"Terry f**ks... ohhhh" lmfao. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mark of the Wolves Terry is how Max sees himself in his mind
Idk what you mean bro, Kyo and Iori are sick as hell, of course, but ALL of the roster is sick as hell.
Yes, even our new main character: Shun-Ei.
Man, where are they going to fit Kim Kaphwan? i cant believe this is going to be the first KOF game without him in the base roster.
anyway, pretty dope trailer. Im actually excited for the game now that it has rollback.
There are three more teams missing in the main rooster
Max: Oh Terry Fucks Ohhh!
Me: Falling out of my chair laughing!
that came from left field!
The snk team actually understands that it's ok to make characters look different, unlike capcom who wants every character to be as blonde and non-ethnic looking as possible.
so much has changed from the fateful day i played Fatal Fury when i was in middle school in 1991. my first powah wave at the arcades felt like a bolt of lightning through my body. i still play the classics through retro setups at home. just feels right.
Heidern might end up teaming with K'. Also Oswald might be with Ash as he was originally part of his team. But seriously looking good so far. I'm hoping that maybe the top row are unlockable characters cause even with 6 dlc characters there are still 3 slots left with the single slot being the boss character.
The top row has 13 slots so its safe to say that one of them will be for the game's boss. I'd love for there to be some unlockable characters but you know SNK has seen its rivals charge for DLC characters and wants to get in on that sooner this time.
I'd love to see Oswald. He's so cool!
@@patrickhoneyman9019 sadly dlc characters is the norm now. They said they will be adding 6 characters as dlc so that still leaves 3 characters slots 🤔
@@faizanshamim7531 If you're referring to the base roster then that's true. If you're including the potential DLC there are 12 slots above where the protagonist teams show, then a solo one to the right of those which will probably be reserved for the game's boss.
@@patrickhoneyman9019 yup I'm referring to the base roster. The top row has 13 characters. The single slot is definitely the boss and 6 slots are dlc so that still leaves 3 slots. Hopefully they will do a team with Rugal, vice and mature
Can't wait for Shun'ei to have some end game transformation where he suddenly becomes a normal-dressed man
Probably next game or costume he clearly doesn't know fashion sense in lore he never know what BBQ is he never know kyo or anyone because he stay at mountain with tung fu re look how meitekun said this city is big clearly he doesn't know crap too lmao
Dude, my expectations have been shattered tbh. This game looks fucking SICK
Shun'ei feels like a character you would find in a fanfiction and overshadows the characters you actually care about.
Though in his case, I think everyone prefers everyone else but him for the most part, especially in terms of protagonists.
I'm so glad that more fighting games are including songs from past games. I loved it in Tekken 7 (On PlayStation) and Guilty Gear Strive, and I'm so happy they are doing it here!
When Terry Garou showed up, Max busted his wolf....
Garou Terry looks sick!
Saw Terry wearing the Garou outfit in the thumbnail. 1000% times more excited.
I like the UI here. Looks clean.
