Now, SNK has gathered their bearings and stepped back into the ring with the recently-released King of Fighters XIII. Most notable were the horrible online play, lack of stage and music variety, head-scratching character cast, and puzzling menus. What used to be a veritable fighting game contender who went toe-to-toe with CAPCOM in the genre fizzled down to an utterly shameful disappointment when they released what was supposed to be a rebirth of The King of Fighters in the aptly named King of Fighters XII. Unfortunately, the title was broken in all sorts of ways.
SNK Playmore has been through a lot this past few years.
