The King of Fighters XIII is a return to the glory days of SNK fighters—and a game that makes up for the mistakes of the franchise’s previous chapter.

Our only complaint is that with such a large roster, many of the characters tend to play too similarly to one another. Facing a team with both Vice and Mature may prove confusing, for instance, as they’re both suit-wearing female assassins. Compared to all the goodness on hand here, though, that’s a small complaint.

SNK has proven with King of Fighters XIII that it cares about the fans. Nearly every bit of negative feedback about the last game has been addressed here, resulting in distilled fan service in disc form. Devout King of Fighters fans left wanting last time won’t have much to complain about here. And while the tutorial and missions mode offers some guidance for casual players, I can’t recommend this over other superior fighters on the market.
