After crazing its fan base last week, SNK has confirmed that Team Sacred Treasures will appear as the official team in King of Fighters 15 with the expected return of Chizuru Kagura, teaming with Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami.
The trailer shows footage of Chizuru, who takes her back to the series after an 18-year absence, with her last playable appearance in King of Fighters 2003.
As the first character to join the game that was not part of King of Fighters 14, this also makes Chizuru’s 3D debut with a magnificent recreation of his shadow movement in the new graphic style of the series.
The implications of the story of bringing the three Sacred Treasures together remain to be seen, as the three have never been an official team in a match. Traditionally, the three had to cooperate to destroy Orochi, so there would certainly be a very big threat for them to put aside their differences and unite once again. You can watch his game trailer below.
