King of Fighters AllStar, the action RPG spin-off, will launch in the west

Netmarble has just announced that The King of Fighters AllStar will fight it s way over to the west later this year. It features every single character from throughout the franchise’s history, which is pretty cool.

It’s also not strictly a fighting game this time around. Instead, it’s an action RPG in which you’ll battle through hordes of enemies, difficult bosses, and rival teams.

King of Fighters AllStar features over 50 different fighters

You’ll build your own team of fighters from your favourites throughout the franchise’s history. You’ll then send them out into battle in levels, tournaments, and various other challenges.

There are over 50 different fighters to collect, and we’re not entirely sure the list will stop there. You’ll have to wait and see.

King of Fighters AllStar launches on Android later this year, though we can’t be more particular than that. We’ll keep you updated.
