Ignition Entertainment sent out word today that is sure to please fighting game fans here in the U.S. The King of Fighters XII, the next installment in SNK Playmore's popular franchise, is heading to the states this July for the PS3 and 360. According to the press release, this three-on-three fighter features a "complete graphical overhaul. The antiquated character sprites used over the past 14 years have been dropped in favor of all-new, high-resolution fighters fluidly animating across painstakingly detailed, 100% hand-drawn backgrounds."
Masaaki Kukino from SNK Playmore comments: "our development slogan for KOFXII is 'KOF Re-Birth' and we've aimed to create an entirely new King of Fighters game." Although no other details are given in the press release, this news is sure to please long-time King of Fighters enthusiasts, especially in the wake of Street Fighter IV's notable success, both critically and commercially.
