The latest character to be added to The King of Fighters XIV may have just been leaked.
An image circulated on various social media websites, supposedly originating from a professional-level player in the fighting game community.
Here’s a shot of the image, via Facebook group Orochinagi:
The above image shows Rock Howard in the game’s player select screen. Due to the nature of this rumor, we’re taking a more skeptical stance here – however we’re definitely hoping to see him added to the game!
It didn’t take long for SNK Corporation Game Division Deputy General Manager Yasuyuki Oda to post a curious status update, simply expressing that he was “feeling pissed off.” I wonder why.
SNK previously confirmed a host of post-launch DLC characters, including: Whip, Vanessa, and Ryuji Yamazaki. Rock would be a natural addition to the game.
