Vice and Takuma

KOF XIII Update
04.22.2010

The Japanese site has updated the character list to include Vice and Takuma. I have to say "told you so" but actually it's really that predictable. Vice is using her stance from '96, same way that Mature is. Takuma looks fatter and is using a new idle stance. He looks really scary.



Anyways, the site update also featured the NEO MAX and MAX Cancellation mode. I didn't get what the Neo max mode is for but it looks like you get free gauge for DMs. It costs you one stock to enter into this mode. Then you can Max cancel into an SDM for three power gauges and the entire neo max bar. I didn't like the rainbow spark animation used, Dream Cancelling was so much better. But its good to see Ash using Iori's purple flames, though the animation looks lame.



I really don't check the System section, but today I'm not that lazy. KOF XIII also features the EX system, which powers up some (or maybe all?) of the characters' special moves. The clip features Athena throwing an EX Psycho Ball. She delays for some frames while she is covered in blue aura, then releases the projectile which hits three times. It's good that KOF is finally able to use this, but Vampire series and SF3 had been using this decades ago.
