Developer SNK has been one of the most popular video game developers for quite a while. Seasoned video game players have probably spent countless hours playing games like Sengoku, Fatal Fury, and Metal Slug, on arcades and the Neo Geo console. The company has also created some iconic fighting game series, including Samurai Shodown and The King of Fighters. These series have always competed with Capcom's Street Fighter to be at the top of the genre, and they have secured for themselves a huge number of fans over the years. The rebirth of Samurai Shodown with great success has paved the way for the launch of The King of Fighters XV, and you will be able to give it a try for free next month on PlayStation consoles.
