It was also stated that “39 fighters [will] enter the ring. ”It looks like this implies that King of Fighters 15 will have a base list of 39 characters.
The trailer also briefly showed us that Ash Crimson, the protagonist of the story arc Tales of Ash, will return to King of Fighters 15. Due to the events of King of Fighters 13, Ash was essentially wiped out of existence. .
However, the defeat of Verse, the final boss of King of Fighters 14, has resulted in the return of many characters such as Ash Crimson, Yashiro, Shermie, Chris and many others.
We also took a look at two unnamed newcomers from the last trailer. One of the newcomers is a woman with blue and white hair, a yellow jacket, a black cap and several ear piercings. The other novelty is a dark-skinned female who has blonde and purple braided hair and wears glasses.
Not much is known about the two newcomers, but it is frankly said that they are key characters involved in the events of King of Fighters 15.
