Of course, but its a bit confusing to see nonetheless. Why have certain characters be all "animu" that typically aren't known for it like King?

Oh well, time will reveal all.

Actually, the people in the Mexican stage has been there in the previous screenshots but I've just noticed them. They were not there in the latest video though, except for one or two that barely moved (I hope that won't be the case with the rest in the final game).

Hon Fu would be great. Throw him in there with Xiangfei and Cheng and you can have the Southtown Chinese Goofball team.

If they really want to blow some minds, they'd add Elta from Magician Lord.

It could be, it could also be that Murai just picked up the habit...or worse, it could be Duke from MI2.

I would take some MI2 characters. Bring the aliens storyline into the main KOF series.

Also, maybe it's obvious, but who is the Southtown Team character with the Colonel Sanders necktie?

Well then Dion Dakov is easily the coolest motherfucker in this game.
I hope this leak is real just for the guy with the twisty blue beard and Charlie Manson glare...he looks fucking hilarious.

Having a hard time seeing who that is in the women's team. Is that third one Blue Mary?

EDIT: Nope. Apparently, it's someone called 'Alice.'

Imagine if SNK did a pack-in with a wireless NGCD pad for the PS4. They could just take all my monies.

Alice is Billy Kane's little sister. Pretty sure she's in a relationship with Joe if I remember right.

EDIT - Which is completely wrong because I couldn't brain right.

First impression of that roster is pretty meh. I'm open with the new graphics direction of the game as long as it plays right.. It will be interesting to see the visual progression of the series from this point like KOF '94 - KOF XIII.

KOF was born out of mostly established SNK characters; that's what made it such a kickass idea. Now it's the same KOF characters time and time again with little to no classic SNK characters showing up that haven't before. Instead, we get weak, hyper-feminized designs like much of the new faces in KOF XIV.

Truly where's the real spirit of SNK here? Where's the hardcore brawler grittiness that created the atmosphere of early Neo-Geo fighters like Fatal Fury Special or AOF? A visual-kei pussy like Saiki the main boss? Mr. Karate or Geese would demolish him. The current staff of SNK needs to sit down and watch some good martial arts action movies and not SMAP or Morning Musume for game ideas.

Is there any special significance to the red borders around some of the characters?

The one new guy I'm surprised no one's talking about is the fish-eyed guy with the blue beard in the Villain team.
