King of Fighters XV gets a more Mature fighter for its roster

SNK have announced that on December 12, Mature and Vice will join the fight for King of Fighters XV and that on the same day, a big update will be released alongside a big Ultimate Edition version of the game. First check out the trailer for the two new combatants.

Mature once counted herself among the Hakkesshu—eight fervent acolytes plotting the resurrection of the divine Orochi (the so-called “will of the earth”). The cruel beauty is fast and fluid in her offense, lacerating opponents with razor-sharp strikes. Her coldhearted realism is a far cry from Vice’s own personality.

Like Mature, Vice was once one of the Hakkesshu—loyal followers who sought to revive the dreaded Orochi. Her frail stature masks a decidedly violent ruthlessness, which comes to the fore in the way she fights: unbridled strength and brutal throws. Vice is intrigued by Iori Yagami, who carries Orochi blood in his veins.

For those seeking everything, assuming you don’t have anything right now, then you are in luck. On December 12, the same day the two fighters above will be available to buy, the King of Fighters XV Ultimate Edition will also release. This version of the game will be digital only and include all 20 paid DLC characters, meaning 61 fighters from the outset, along with a few costumes as well.

If you already own the game, that date will see a big balancing patch released as well, the details for which will come later. Finally, we also have the character layouts you can enjoy, if you want to see the details that have gone into the two new additions.
