King of Fighters XV is packing more punch with its newest update
SNK have announced that a new update for King of Fighters XV is rolling out to players on all platforms, bringing a new move, that should help liven things up.
The Advance Strike causes a hard knockdown on hit, leaving players’ well-placed for more offense. This offensive move costs half a power gauge bar, but this is restored on both hit and block. Unlike the counterattack Shatter Strike, the Advance Strike grants a counter hitbox against throws partway through; if it lands while the counter is active, players’ opponents will crumple to the ground (and be prone to follow-ups).
Check out the video below to see it in action.
The game is out on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, should you want to pick it up now.
