Classic beat'em up with a very charismatic cast of characters. It may get a little difficult in the later levels, but it's still a lot of fun. Classic Capcom game here. Good game.

Amazing and unique experience! Great gameplay, graphics, style, and soundtrack. The game is made for hardcore gamers, so if you're looking for a casual experience, stay away. I personally dislike these kinds of games, but I can appreciate the product value when I see it. This is a modern classic.

Good game, but this is the start of the downfall of the franchise.
Amazing sprite work in characters and scenarios. The characters' presentation and artwork are amazing, and the color edit is a fun touch in the series. K', the new protagonist, has some charm and charisma, but the rest of his team makes no sense. The new characters have good designs, but they don't blend well with their teams. And about the gameplay: why did they make the controls so stiff? Back in the day, I was shocked at how hard it was to make a simple special move compared to KoF 97 and 98. Good game, but it's just not better than 98...

When i bought this game back in the day i remember clearly the owner of the game store saying it was almost impossible to find it for me. Very fun game in general. The engine developed by capcom only for this game looks great on PS2. Each stage play differently from each other which adds variety in the gameplay. The soundtrack is beautiful. Capcom made this game with care, a love letter to the fans of the series.
