The third title in SNK’s legendary King of Fighters series, KoF ’96, is available for download today on Nintendo Switch, as part of Hamster’s ACA Neo Geo range.
Although it suffers from some real balance issues, the 1996 iteration of the popular fighting franchise is the year in which the series really found its feet. It also features the sroster debut of some great characters, such as the sinister duo of Mature and Vice, Art of Fighting 3’s Kasumi Todoh and Best Girl Leona Heidern.
KoF ’96 has great, dynamic stages, featuring awesome pixel art. The fight rewards aggression, with characters becoming more of a threat as their health lowers. King of Fighters ’96 is available today on Nintendo Switch, priced at $8.
