The King of Fighters XIV is coming to Steam, closed beta and pre-orders this month

Players of The King of Fighters XIV at home have so far only one option: Sony’s PlayStation 4. Those who came into the series via the PC releases of past King of Fighters games have been so far left out; that, however, will be ending soon.

At a recent press conference in China, SNK’s Yasuyuki Oda officially revealed that The King of Fighters XIV will be coming to PC via Steam. As part of this, they also confirmed that players would be able pre-order the game this month. Also coming this month is a closed beta test to iron out any bugs that may crop up with the port.

Further details on this have yet to be revealed. In the meantime, here’s a video from the conference where they announce the port.
