Xiaohai wins KOFXV at EVO Japan 2023!
Xiaohai won the championship. He received...
- Champion medal
- Arcade controller
- Backpack
- 1 year's supply of "Rohto V5" + Rohto Pharmaceuticals product assortment
- INZONE M3 + INZONE H3
- Champion trophy

Xiaohai: When I came to Japan for Tougeki '07, I won in KOF98, but I have been told by many players, "KOF98 is an old game. He can only win in old games." So I continued to challenge myself in new games such as Street Fighter IV, Street Fighter V, KOFXIII, KOFXIV, and KOFXV. EVO Japan 2023 was a great opportunity for me to prove that I can win not only in old games but also in new ones. I came to Japan to win.
Recently, it has been difficult to leave China, but I am happy that EVO Japan 2023 is being held. All the players are both rivals and friends. Thank you to everyone involved. I would like to participate in many more events like this, so please continue to support me.
