It's February 2022, and the countdown is on for the release of SNK's latest title in the KOF series, " THE KING OF FIGHTERS X V" (hereafter, KOF XV), on Thursday the 17th.
The initial 39 characters and 13 teams have all been revealed, and just as we were waiting for the release of the game, the introduction of the " FATAL FURY MotW Terry " DLC costume as an early purchase bonus and the " CLASSIC LEONA " DLC costume as a digital version limited edition bonus were announced. The trailer for the early purchase bonus DLC costume, "FATAL FURY MotW Terry," and the digital version's exclusive DLC costume, "CLASSIC LEONA," have been released, raising expectations for the game's release. That's our SNK!
I thought that since they had already released the bonus trailer, there would be no more new information and we would just have to wait for the release of the game, but don't underestimate SNK!
Even before the full game is released, the contents of the paid DLC that will be distributed at a later date have been revealed!

Rock is joining the team! FATAL WOLF MOTW TEAM" revealed!
It has been announced that the additional team "Team 1" for KOF XV's paid DLC is the "FATAL WOLF MotW Team "!
As the name suggests, the team will be from "FATAL WOLF MARK OF THE WOLVES ".
First up is " Rock Howard " (CV: Yuma Uchida), the main character of "FATAL WOLF MARK OF THE WOLVES"!
He made his first appearance as a playable character in the previous KOF XIV, but as he was DLC, he was a stand-alone character.
This time, however, he will be joining us as a team! The only person who can carry the name "FATAL FURY MOTW TEAM" is Rock!
Next up is " Kibatou " (CV: Yushin Yamaguchi), who has participated in KOF since 2003 and XI!
He is a cold-hearted and overwhelmingly powerful kung-fu fighter who is on a journey to avenge his father's murder of his mother.
In KOF XI, he participated with "B. Jenny" and "Griffon Mask" as the "GARIFON MOW Team", but this time " Griffon Mask " will not be participating in the tournament.
King of Dinosaurs ", a somewhat similar character, is a member of the "G.A.W. Team", but is there any special interaction with him?
Lastly, we have " B. Jenny " (CV: Mikako Komatsu), who is the first playable character to join the game since XI!
As mentioned above, she was a member of the "FATAL FURY MOW TEAM" in XI with "Kibatou", and now she is joining "Rock Howard" as a member of the new "FATAL FURY MOTW TEAM".
B. Jenny" is a popular character, so it is likely that she will be used a lot in the newest graphics.
KOF XV's paid DLC "FATAL WOLF MOTW TEAM" will be released in March 2022! The price for a single team will be 1,870 yen (tax included).
The "Team Pass 1" is included in the " Team 2" set, and the "Team Pass 1" is priced at 3,300 yen (including tax), so if you plan to buy both, the "Team Pass 1" is by far the best deal! If you are planning to buy both, the "Team Pass 1" is definitely a good deal!
Of course, the " THE KING OF FIGHTERS XV Deluxe Edition," which includes both the main game and "Team Pass 1," is also included in the package, so be careful not to purchase more than one copy.
We are happy to see the entry of the ever-popular "FATAL FURY MARK OF THE WOLVES," and the "FATAL FURY MOTW TERRY" DLC costume is also available as an early purchase bonus for this title.
It would be romantic to pair "Rock Howard" with "FATAL WOLF MotW Terry" in the team edit.
The team will be released in the month following the release of the main game, so while playing KOF XV, let's wait for the "FATAL WOLF MotW Team" to be released!
Team 2 is revealed to be the "Southtown Team"!
As announced at the end of the "FATAL FURY FURY MotW Team" introductory trailer, another team, "Team 2 ", which will be released as paid DLC, has been revealed!
The " Southtown Team " from SNK's iconic fighting game series "FATAL FURY" will be participating in the DLC!
GARO MARK OF THE WOLVES" is also a member of the "GARO DENSETSU" series, so both "Team 1" and "Team 2" are related to "GARO DENSETSU"! I can't get enough of it!
As the name suggests, the "Southtown Team" is a team of characters who are active in "Southtown," a city that appears in SNK's works.
The "South Town Team" consists of " Geese Howard " (CV: Kong Kuwata), one of SNK's representative boss characters, " Billy Khan " (CV: Masaki Masaki), a Howard Connection member who has appeared since the first "FATAL FURY" and a master of the three-section cudgel, and "GARO DENSETSU" (CV: Masaki Masaki). ), and " Ryuji Yamazaki " (CV: Tsuguo Mogami), one of the most dangerous characters in the "FATAL FURY" series, are all members of SNK's villain trading company.
All of the characters are not limited to "FATAL FURY" but are representative of SNK's villains, and they have appeared in various KOF series.
And I'm curious to see what "Geese Howard" will be wearing.
In the visual released today, Gheez is depicted in a suit, which is rare in the past.
We are curious to see what he will look like, but this announcement only shows one visual!
The "Southtown Team" is priced at 1,870 yen (including tax) as a standalone team, but will be included in the "Team Pass 1" for 3,300 yen (including tax) along with the "Hungry Wolf MotW Team".
Although it will not be available for a little while, you can purchase "Team Pass 1" to create a team with Terry, Rock, and Gies in the Team Edit!

Team 3 and Team 4 are coming soon!
The previously announced "Team Pass 1" DLC for KOF XV included two teams, and now the "Fatal Wolf MotW Team" and "Southtown Team" have been announced.
We thought that all the teams for KOF XV had been announced, but that's not the case!
Two more teams have been announced! Team Pass 2" will also be released!
At this time, we do not know what teams will be participating in "Team Pass 2," but "Team 3" will be released in the summer of 2022, and "Team 4" will be released in the fall of 2022.
The "Fatal Wolf MotW Team" and "Southtown Team" in "Team Pass 1" were quite exciting, so we have high expectations for "Team Pass 2" as well.
There are many KOF regulars who have not yet been announced, so I am anxiously awaiting the release of KOF XV and the distribution of "FATAL RANGER MOTW TEAM" and "SOUTH TOWN TEAM"!
In addition to the initial 39 characters, there will be 6 characters in "Team Pass 1" and 6 characters in "Team Pass 2", for a total of 51 playable characters, so be sure to pre-order KOF XV and get ready for the start of the season! Get ready for the opening of KOF XV!
