As some of you may be aware of, SNK Playmore is currently hosting a King of Fighters XIV Exerience event in Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan. As part of the event, the hosts have been passing out bottles of an “official drink” of an unspecified brand at the event. These bottles contain images of the game’s characters, including some that have not yet been officially announced.
Over on twitter, charlie0816 shared a photo of one of these bottles which shows images Nakoruru, Ramon, and also of two new characters. One of them, right under Nakoruru, looks to be the 3rd member of Chang and Choi’s villains team from the leaks from early this year. More importantly however, off the right is what may be the new protagonist for the game.
There’s a new King of Fighters XIV trailer due later today after the event, maybe we’ll learn more about these characters then.
