Hi Res KOF

As I said before, the new installment of KOF will be launched on 25th of March. I've been googling around for some news and I happen to go over one image showcasing the alleged cast of KOFXIII. It seems like a scan from Famitsu but then again everything might be fake.

The scan looks legit but we can't really say. We see some characters retain their normal stances. Ash is back to his 2003/XI stance. Kim isn't using his "Dong Hwan" stance but rather his original "Jae Hoon" stance. Ralf and Clark back to their steroid free selves. Leona back to her original costume, although her XII costume is cool. Anyways, that was inspired from her MI alternate costume. Ryo has longer sleeves kinda Takuma-ish more like his Mr. Karate incarnation. Athena is slimmer again, she's wearing the same uniform from her intro sequence from 94 which is actually just XII minus the fat plus the socks. Iori still uses his XII costume but with a new stance. And Elisabeth on a different stance from her XI and XII incarnations.

At the bottom of the page we see three new characters. A woman, who kinda reminds me of Xiaoyu's stance from Tekken 6, a huge guy who come off like Duke-ish from MI, and a small weird girl who reminds me of Ninon Beart from MI.

Anyways, googling brought me to a Youtube vid and voila, I see some graphics there of KOF characters redrawn with higher resolution. Judge for yourself, cause this just makes the scan look too doubtful.




Whoever did this is a genius. I hope you get employed by SNK to remake their classic games. I'm wishing Samurai Shodown and The Last Blade. Who knows you might get a cease and desist order the same one that buried Chrono Resurrection. Who cares! Hats off to you!
