The APK of THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 – the once super popular arcade game has been brought back by the publisher SNK CORPORATION on the mobile platform. Just hearing its name, my childhood memories flooded back.

About THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 (KOF’98)

One of the best childhood memories is now back on mobile in an even better version!

KOF’98 is one of the hit arcade games from the 90’s. I believe the early 8X, 9X gamers can’t forget the hot summer days when fighting intensely on the console with the warriors of kings. strong.

If you have had unforgettable days, now you can play THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 on mobile to recapture great moments like these.

Heavy arcade combat at high speed

This classic fighting game features simple, straight-to-the-point gameplay, thus providing a concise and focused experience for the player.

This time on mobile, the game maintains the classic 2D graphics that were the unmistakable hallmark of the original game. The main gameplay remains the same, you can quickly see the memories rushing back from the first frames in the game.

You can choose a favorite character from the available list. Use all 6 buttons on the screen (including moving back and forth, punching, kicking with skillful combos) to defeat the enemy after 3 rounds.

Although it is a continuation between the parts in the King of Fighters series (a collaborative product of publisher SNK and developer Dotemu), THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 still has its own charm. And you will be amazed by what you get from legendary combat while playing.

Valuable improvements

The first thing to mention is balance. This is its best balance in the series. The characters, whether heroes, martial artists, warriors or thugs, all have certain skills, so that when confronting each other, they still have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Each has an advantage on the battlefield and there is not too much difference in strength like the previous parts. This is the key point that creates the attraction for the hand-to-hand combat phase in the game. Assuming the strength difference is too much, you will narrow your choices because no one wants to choose a weak character right?

Another novelty in this game is the combat mechanism that allows selecting 3 characters at the same time. Each will stand up to fight an AI opponent. The other two friends stood beside cheering but did not participate. The battle is therefore more attractive, longer lasting than the old fighting games, and the presence of many characters on the same screen also somewhat creates a more modern battlefield.

THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 has two difficulty levels (i.e. Extra and Advanced) for players to choose from. A new game mode, Training mode, has also been added to help new players get used to the maneuvers quickly and easily. You can also challenge your friends to play via Bluetooth. Competing with friends to witness different fighting styles is also a great way to experience such a classic game.

This new game also supports connecting a handheld controller via Bluetooth for added convenience for players. You know, using a lot of buttons on the screen can be distracting and reduce the enjoyment of playing games. So using the controls from an external device and leaving the screen only showing the fight scene would probably be better. I have not tried this connection mode, but people say in the reviews it is quite smooth and increases combat speed significantly. If you have the device at home, you should try it.

Some points are not perfect

What I don’t like about THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98 is that the plot is almost nonexistent. As far as I remember, the original game and series share the same arcade style as the old Street Fighter quite deeply. Each character has their own life and story. Who dies and who lives is clearly demarcated in each section. This depth both creates a sense of close connection between the game and the player, while enhancing the personalities of the characters.

In THE KING OF FIGHTERS ’98, the plot seems to have been skipped. Some seemingly unrelated characters suddenly appear (like street thugs). I agree that variety is necessary, but it is much better to follow a clear logical line.

Currently, the game offers 38 characters. In addition to iconic characters from the original series, the “Iori” and “American Sports” teams as well as the “Shingo Yabuki” and “Rugal Bernstein” edited characters are back, ready for battle. intense.
