Nice! Still need to get XIV

Lovin' this news.  I just hope SNK doesn't try to do the KOF XI style again (the tag system).  One thing they should bring back is the assist feature from some of the Neo-Geo KOF games, where your partners can jump in from the sideline to knock you out of an enemy's grab.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing a Nightmare Rugal in this one as a secret boss.  Rather than having him be overpowered like 94/95 (Damn that Genocide Cutter... the damage it does is sick), lower his damage potential to that of a regular opponent (so a Genocide Cutter would take off about as much life as Terry's Rising Tackle), but make up for it with stronger AI.

Maybe it's time to shatter all expectations with Terry?

Here's SNK's official page for KOF XV. Some more confirmed characters are Chizuru, Andy, and Yuri (YES!) ✌️. Instead of their own engine, SNK will use Unreal Engine 4 on this one. Animations and effects are looking better than XIV.
