![]() ![]() The EX-Gauge feature is also no longer present, with the exception of the fight against Kyo Clone-10 and Iori Clone-09 (who were also updated and given back an unlimited power bar).Ī notable new feature to this game was the process of unlocking certain characters. Another new change was that all the characters were updated either by having new moves or so that previous characters that did not possess Level 3 HSDM's now had at least one. This occurs by consistently attacking your opponent's while they block in order to wittle down their guard, or by utilizing special moves that can instantly break an opponent's guard for a brief moment (some of Kyo's moves are capable of doing this, for example).Īll characters, including bosses, now only have 3 powerbar levels (rather than some having 5 in the previous game). Amongst the general manuvers within the game, guard breaking has been included. However, new additions were also made into this installment. The gameplay has remained mostly unchanged when in comparison to the previous game, in that it still utilizes many of the traditional gameplay elements found within the KoF series. Afterwards, the two would wait within the ruins of Gustab's estate for the winners of the Tournament to approach and challenge them. After making her angry enough, Element was seemingly able to control Yukino's mind and forced her to turn into a more powerful, hidden form that was initially supressed. Utilizing his powers, he was seemingly able to create an illusion around her, making her think that she was floating within a dark void that her rival, Sula, was berating her with harsh comments about her combat abilities as well as her past and current actions. Yukino about to transform while in Element's illusion.Īt some point during the Tournament, Element managed to find Yukino. Element teleports away afterwards, ending the cutscene. He notes to himself that Yukino Ozawa is amongst them, and that he requires her to complete his destructive and mysterious intentions. Shortly afterwards, Element begins to sense the presence of the approaching fighters for the next King of Fighters Tournament. Gustab collapses and dies afterwards, expressing shock in his final words at this turn of events. Element, seemingly unphased by the attack, proceeds to impale Gustab through the torso using his hand (as well as emitting a slight beam of energy that seems to pierce through him). Gustab attempts to strike Element down with his "Revelation of Threads" HSDM, but Element seems to avoid every single one of the strings with (much to the surprise of Gustab). Psyqhical initially attempts to intervene and challenges Element, but Element quickly strikes him down in a single blow by slicing him in half.Įlement impales Gustab in the opening cutscene.Įlement then confronts Gustab, who is seemingly greatly pleased at the power that "his creation" has demonstrated. He refers to himself as "his own master," as well as expressing his desire to kill Gustab. Element teleports into the room from a large cloud of dust, and begins to inform Gustab that he will not submit to his orders despite being created by him. It appeared that a few of them had survived the previous battle in some way or another, amongst these including: Kyo Clone-10, Iori Clone-09, Krizalid, Leopold Goenitz (although Psyqhical had actually contained his soul after his defeat), and Rugal Bernstein, the final of which the two could not locate, although Psyqhical was assured that "he is alive, we know he must be."Īs they speak, Psyqhical suddenly senses Element's energy approaching their position. He asks Psyqhical to inform him of the status on the previous fighters that he had resurrected for the last tournament. Gustab is initially shocked that they lost control of their experiment, though begins to make prepirations for a potential confrontation. Element had seemingly hid his energy source afterwards, preventing Psyqhical from locating him. He informs Gustab that Element had escaped from the lab he was being contained in, and had seemingly gone on a rampage, killing all of their soldiers and scientists in the process. The opening cutscene begins by showing Psyqhical appearing before Gustab Munchausen to give a status report. The story takes place at some point after the events in the first King of Fighters Memorial Tournament, presumably not too long considering Element's activation which seemed to be directly after the first tournament (however it could be assumed that his activation took place a few months or even a year afterwards, although this does cause some conflictions in the plot).
