As we reported earlier, SNK will be debuting a new public build of The King of Fighters XIV with 36 playable characters. While this build isn’t supposed to be revealed until the the 28th, the folks over at Orochinagi have been able to get a screenshot of the character select screen from the new build.
Now let’s get straight to the point, the new 36 character public build of The King of Fighters XIV doesn’t feature some of the fighters shown off in the latest trailers. So anyone looking for footage of Mature is out of luck. That said, it still features a good number of characters who weren’t in any previous builds such as Joe Higashi, Mui Mui, Nakoruru, Hein and new protagonist Shun’ei.
You can check out the screenshot of the character select screen here.
