The King of Fighters XV Masami Obari Special Animated Short Now Available on YouTube

  

Tuesday evening, SNK surprised fans with the release of the anticipated Masami Obari special short animated movie — now available to watch on YouTube for free. Originally, the movie was announced to be featured in The King of Fighters XV's Gallery mode, but currently exists on YouTube for all to enjoy! While some SNK fans might've been hoping for something longer, the 2-minute short movie packs a ton of heart, fan service, and excellent Japanese animation from a legend in the industry. Old school fans of Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture will enjoy seeing many of KOF XV's newcomers and veterans represented in Obari's iconic art style!

 
The King of Fighters XV releases February 17th, 2022 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Windows 10.
