Participate in a thrilling tournament

Experience the thrill of fighting and combat in The King of Fighter 97. It is an action-packed game developed by SNK CORPORATION  that follows the Orochi Saga storyline. Your mission is to stop the Orochi clan from wiping out humans off the face of Earth by winning fights in an organized tournament. 

Exciting Fights

The Orochi clan is back and seeks to resurrect Orochi, the god of nothingness who wants to kill all humans in order to cleanse the Earth. In this game, fighters all over the world are being pitted against each other in order to single out the strongest ones who can potentially defeat the evil Orochi. There are over 35 fighters to choose from in this game but regardless of who you choose, your main goal is to win all fights until you come face to face with Orochi’s servants. It will take a while before you are able to reach them as there are so many others you will still need to defeat. It means that you have plenty of time to spend on enjoying the game and mastering each player’s movements! All fighters have a skill set and fighting style. Each of them also has special moves that can only be performed when you punch a combination of keys or buttons. The game’s controls are a little complicated so it will take you a while to be able to perfect each character’s special skill. Once you do, you now have bigger chances of winning against your enemy! 

I would advise you to take your time in learning each of their moves properly because it can be really helpful in the future. Not only will you be able to use them effectively against your opponents, knowing their fighting style will help you to properly dodge and respond to their attacks. Familiarizing yourself with the characters is a very good strategy if you want to breeze through the competition smoothly. 

Advanced and extra 

There are 2 modes you can play in The King of Fighter 97. The first one is the Advanced Mode where you can stock up your Power gauges with every hit you land on your opponent. Power gauges in advanced more fill easily and fast. Once you have a full tank, you can use it to perform a special move or deliver a very strong attack against your enemy, which will most likely send them flying all the way across the other end of the arena. 

In Extra Mode, you can only use powerful moves towards the end of the fight when you have reached your limit. The closer your life gauge is to becoming empty, the more powerful your special attack will be. If you are one for dramatic and heroic endings, Extra Mode is perfect for you.

Interesting fighting game series

The King of Fighter 97 is a good fighting game that you will get to really enjoy especially those who are fans of other similar games like Street Fighter and Tekken. The plot is also very interesting and fighting against the ultimate boss is something to look forward to.
