SNK Corporation has partnered with Bitmap Books to present The King of Fighters: The Ultimate History book that will tell the story behind the long-running fighting game series.
Although The King of Fighters has been the most important fighting game series of all time, the history of the game had never been comprehensively told ever. This is where The King of Fighters: The Ultimate History book will come into play as it releases this summer.
In The King of Fighters: The Ultimate History, the whole story of the KOF franchise will be revealed in its entirety. The book will contain illustrations and artwork, as well as the key members of the original development team.
This official history delivers a comprehensive visual and written history of KOF: It celebrates iconic characters such as Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami, as well as the voice actors who brought them to life. It uncovers never-before-seen details about the mysterious origins of KOF and delves into the sumptuous pixel art and rich story narratives the series is known for. With its wealth of imagery and information, this is the ultimate KOF history.
The All-Star edition of the book will not only include the book, but also a heavy-board slipcase to place it in, five art prints, and a postcard featuring exclusive illustrations by Eisuke Ogura. Another cool perk of the slipcase itself is that it includes a series of touch panels on its fascia, which when pressed play the in-game sound effects of each fighter.
The King of Fighters: The Ultimate History book will be available this summer for $45.50. The All-Star Edition will be available for $71.50.
