Next KOF XV Character Reveal Set for August 11th

  

While some past King of Fighters XV character reveal trailer "teaser" silhouettes have been fairly easy to guess... others have sent fans (and artists) through a loop spawning many entertaining fan artist takes and funny photoshops via social media. SNK released the latest upcoming KOF XV character silhouette Tuesday night and announced the next character reveal will go live on August 11th (PDT)! That means fans have an entire week to ponder on who this new character is... My guess? Could it be returning KOF 14 boss, Antonov? ...or will SNK surprise us all with a new or returning pro-wrestler / grappler from the SNK vaults? [UPDATE] Called it! Antonov was revealed by SNK on Wednesday.

Yes, Street Fighter V Director Takayuki Nakayama already weighed in with his artistic guess. Omega Rugal?
 

 
This character is also doing the winpose of Jin Fu-Ha from AOF3 and has the same build. Art by @geta0201.
 

 
Or could it be an American Sports Team member? Here's a humorous take by @sugoi_wotoko.
 

   
Stay tuned in on Fighters Generation for upcoming King of Fighters XV news.
