These combos are practical and it is highly recommended that you familiarize yourself with as many of them as possible for use in actual battles.

Players complete a series of combos of increasing difficulty with every character in the game.

The trial mode is one of my favorite modes in the game and is becoming a genre staple.

For this reason, we’ll call the netcode good, not great. When both characters have good signals though, matches transpire as smooth as butter spreading onto hot toast. Other details, such as the loading during a match, make things seem overall a bit shaky. Lag appears in other, more confusing areas though, such as the order select after both players have chosen their characters. Sometimes this display sits on the screen indefinitely and you have to actually quit the game in order to continue playing. Instead of lagging through a match, players are hit with a display that says ‘synchronizing’. The netcode appears to hold up well if both players have the same signal strength, but the moment one player has a better connection than the other things fall apart pretty quickly. Players can compete with fighters around the world in ranked or player matches. I have mixed feelings about the online mode because it is the one part of the game that I have any serious problems with. The versus and practice modes are both standard and solid, though I must note that the customizable select button in practice mode is quite sharp.

The character variety is fantastic and it urges even fleeting fighting fans to check it out. If you like to use space as a weapon and zone your opponent to lock them down from afar then Billy Kane, Athena and King have the tools you need. If you’re a fan of the up close and personal approach with deadly grapples and or effective mix-ups then the likes of Clark, Maxima and Shen might suit you. Whether you like light characters with higher speed than attack power or heavier less mobile characters with devastating damage, someone on the roster is bound to tickle your fancy. No two characters are alike, which makes the roster seem much bigger in comparison to something like Street Fighter where multiple characters have practically identical sets of moves. There are enough characters for everyone to find someone they like regardless of how they like to play. This huge cast of characters harbors various unique fighting styles. The roster boasts 33 characters out of the box, with three more characters coming via paid DLC later. We’ll get to them further into the review. Unfortunately, the title is host to just a couple of issues that many genre fans would consider pretty serious. The game-play is strategic and satisfying, there are tons of characters and modes, and the overall feeling of love and quality in the game is commendable. It addresses just about all of the issues from XII and throws in enough content to make it easily worth buying.

SNK Playmore really did try to redeem themselves and the KOF name with this title. So, does it fail miserably or succeed gloriously? The King of Fighters XIII would have to be a complete overhaul from XII in order to be worth the price of admission. This time KOF is back with a vengeance and it wears the Atlus seal of approval. That entry branded an ugly stain onto the series’ long and storied history and it made potential fans think twice about picking up any future games with the KOF name on them.
