"KOF '98" x "Rakuten Monkeys" Collaboration Event
Kyo Kusanagi, Iori Yagami, and Chizuru Kagura of the Three Sacred Treasures team will appear. They have traveled through time and space to the year 2023. Join the brave fans of Zenzaru Main Stadium to defeat the evil threat and revive the "KOF '98" tournament in Zenzaru Main Stadium once again!
Popular KOF '98 fighters will appear at the Rakuten Taoyuan Stadium, home of Taiwan's professional baseball team, the "Rakuten Monkeys"! The players and cheerleaders will meet and mingle with fans and sell collaborative products during the "Zen Monkey Main Stadium" fan event on Friday, October 6, 2023.
The "Rakuten Girls," the cheerleaders of the Rakuten Monkeys, have been talked about as "too cute" in Japan for quite some time now. In September 2023, members of the Rakuten Girls came to Rakuten Mobile Park Miyagi, home of the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles professional baseball team, and cheered the game with fans.
The event included a photo spot in the stadium, a "KOF Defeat Challenge Event," and a special gift for purchasing items at a limited-edition store! In addition, there will be an event space on the 2nd floor of the stadium! The winner of the game tournament held at the event space on the second floor of the stadium will receive a "KOF '98" x "Rakuten Monkeys" collaboration uniform!
It will be held shortly after the announcement of the event, so it will be difficult to get there right away! However, SNK fans living in the suburbs of Taiwan are encouraged to visit the Rakuten Taoyuan Stadium! The Rakuten Monkeys fan event in collaboration with KOF '98 will be held on Friday, October 6, 2023!
