The roster of 33 characters is bolstered by the console-exclusive Billy Kane, who series fans will know as the staff wielding Brit who has a real disdain for cigarettes. Fortunately, this has been removed from KOF 13. Some of you may remember the horrible zooming camera from KOF XII. There's also the sinister Mature from Team Iori, the slightly random addition of Hwa Jai from the original Fatal Fury and Mr. This includes the impeccably dressed trio of K', Kula Diamond and Maxima, who make up the appropriately titled Team K', as well as the kickboxing credentials of King, the karate skills of Yuri Sakazaki and the scantily-clad ninja acrobatics of Mai Shiranui who make up the reinstated Women Fighters Team. The first thing you'll notice is a wide range of familiar faces that have returned after being inexplicably absent from the last game. Thankfully, The King of Fighters 13 is that and more. But with its lavishly redrawn sprites and sturdy (if unremarkable) fighting system, it was the perfect template for improvement. It offered the smallest roster in the series' history, lacked a stable online environment and offered the solo player only a ropey arcade mode that was missing an end boss.
