The King of Fighters ARENA Reviews

This is not a new kof game this is a specific game mode taken out of kof all stars and said here that’s your whole game . If that wasn’t odd enough it gets worse. I am sad to say that moment you start digging around TheKingofFightersARENA you’ll soon learning about controllers and minting. Yup minting. They have taken the beloved kof franchise and integrated it with scummy nft. If you would of told younger me playing fighting games all night while having a sleep over w the boys that one day your beloved franchises would be used to scam people out of money i wouldn’t have believed you but here we are. Who do I really feel bad for … well I feel bad for KOFAS players the most. I quit kofas a while back but I’d have to imagine those guys are scratching their heads wondering why didn’t they just put this wasted projects money into enhancing their game an giving it more life. Hopefully this will fail so they can go back and give kofas players some well earned love for sticking with their og game through all the grind. I’m sorry guys I’m still not sure what to even say here except for I immediately uninstalled bc I can not turn the blind eye and try to enjoy this. Even if the fights would be fun I’d be doing an injustice to potentially standing up to be a part in helping the future of gaming. You know what to do boys.

This is not a fighting game. All you do is literally sit there spam button and hope to win. You can’t block Anyhting half the time and the dodge mechanic is the worst thing in the world. Get this.. you use a special move it will hit your opponent ever time.. meaning it’s literally a battle between skills and luck. Spamming and luck.. literally in this game just pick the most op players and you’ll win everytime becuz this game requires no actual skill. Really hope this game fails and they focus on there og game that also needs a lot of work.

This game is outstanding. The best KOF game I’ve ever played on a mobile. I love the game, but sometimes it logs me out in the middle of the game even though my internet connection is strong. This will cause me to loose the game. Maybe if the was a way for one to log back in immediately after that and continue playing from where the glitch occurs. Also a pause button would be good. Maybe a pause of about 15seconds to 20seconds

The game is really good. You can change the controls in setting but it still needs work, I feel like it needs a better layout so the controls become easier and better to make combos. Other than that the game gets a 5 ⭐️ for me!

This game rewards spam there are no complex key binds in the game so people just spam three moves and hope for the best. Then the game is very unbalanced, what pvp arena fighting game needs to allow players to make a specific character stronger, that is not fair to new players and there are specific characters like Orochi that already have a clear advantage over other characters. I would hit a very long combo on someone just to loose to one special move and an ultimate move. Sadly this game can not be fixed because that’s just the way devs are.

It’s fun game. But it’s a game for people with no brain. The combo skill button is terrible, anyone can master it, it’s fun thought at the beginning, but lack interesting for fans who loves KOF at old era and want to learn to master any skills. I still like the old control way to trigger a skill. Game mode is so boring now, only PvP, no story mode, no team, no quests. No way to gain diamond to summon except spend money. I love KOF hopefully a better full game mode comes out rather than this half product

This game allows you to preform 15 hit combos off one jab button when it should be 3 hits max on that singular jab, you can get blown up in the corner relatively easily, poor implementation of a dash you guys could at least give us a proper dashing mechanic like any other fighting game . To many specials we only need one or 2 and each character should have their combos they can use that’s unique to them and not spamming anything together

This is so much better than just waiting for 5 hours to fight a player, I and I love how they give you the characters right off the bat. This feel like actually fighting game with no battle cards. I hope this game will get more characters and updates.

I don’t like playing with other people, so the lagging issue doesn’t affect me. This game is perfect for me. Superb graphics and smooth gameplay on iPhone 13 pro max. And it’s free, what else can I ask.

I mean the lag is just atrocious. I have full green and the other person is in the red. By the time I even get a touch in my characters health goes from full to nothing.
Please start working on the lag issue. 🙇🏽‍♂️

This game is not bad but the graphics and gameplay need to be fixed and a story mode should be added also

Idk why but when I try to play there are moments where the game freezes or lags to the point that I can’t even react to the opponent’s attacks, I checked my wifi and it doesn’t seem to be the problem, I hope you guys fix this so I can enjoy the experience more

Just mash buttons no skill required, action to extreme like it’s speed up on drugs. This requires no skill level. 3on 3 is unplayable screen is just black with buttons displayed but can’t see me or other players and no it’s not my wifi. No jump button? Story mode?
Huge fan of KOF, great graphics is all there is to enjoy game is broke, broken. Another mash buttons cross your fingers get them in a corner you win.

I’m very annoyed at having to download the online data via wifi or cellular data over and over. It’s almost as if you’re stealing the data it’s wild! Please update and fix + only 1 mode is pretty boring. People spam grabs rigorously.

Only thing there is to do is play one on one matches or do practice mode. There is a 3 on 3 game mode but it’s only available at certain times

Thank you s much for fixing the weird loading bug. It is now fully working. This game is very fun so thanks for fixing the load issue.

Pre ordered this and excited to finally play it. But every match I play I have a good connection but my opponent doesn’t and I lag and can’t react and they win, just because THEY have a bad connection. Not to mention the combat just doesn’t feel good it’s just disappointing and boring

I hooked up my backbone controller ready jump right in. I was mistaken the movement controls work, took me a while to figure that the options button is my attack and that’s it no specials and no way to map them in. 🤔🫤 games pretty good just needs actual controller support

This game is hot trash . No balance . It has a block button but people can just spam moves leaving no space for any sort of counters . Enemies can juggle u around by just button mashing without little ways to escape . I don’t know why I had any faith in netmarble or snk and will be more vigilant in the future before investing time and money into a game by this company .

I honestly had some fun playing it but the biggest problem is how easy it is to take the lead in a fight u can be winning then one evasive then ur in round 2 or u lost it’s too easy and it doesn’t reward u when u can easily get countered

This is fine a like most things about this game but its missing ways to get skin’s better ways to get diamonds and more skins to and a character i hope you guys put in is shen woo pls put him in it it would be amazing

The “enhancement fail” is the biggest load of garbage when it comes to this game. You earn mastery points for each player through fights and rewards. Mastery points are required to upgrade a character but there’s this “enhancement failure” garbage that brings the character down a level. What’s the point of this? To force you to use your real money to acquire mastery points since earning them through fights take much longer. Imagine having to fight 19 times with a character in order to have enough points to upgrade only for that upgrade to fail and bring you down a level. Now you have to fight another 19 fights to earn more points…..or you can just buy diamonds with real money and pray that the random cartridge selections gives you the character your actually looking to upgrade. It’s as if the game developers do not want you to succeed in this game unless you spend money

Not bad but needs some tweaking as to be expected this early on mainly when other people lag they have an advantage over me which is frustrating and I don’t really understand what i can do with the stuff i earn lol

I’m tired of seeing people get cheap damage from unblock able finishers and ultimate skills. It’s extremely unbalanced and extremely easy to abuse. PLEASE FIX

I love this game it reminds me of street fighter 5. I don’t like that there’s a timer when you have to use you’re character again. Other then that am fine.

Perhaps at the VERY beginning these people say the game wasn’t good but the gameplay is beautiful with the buttons and defense and play mechanics are great, graphics 5/5 being that I’ve been a game tester since I was 10 I see this game as an absolute win , I hope they create more, love it so far and the entire franchise.

The game not very good but it kind of fun to play. I think the game need to make the shield more strong and you also could add room creation feature for who want to play with friend

the game is incredible!!! . It has good graphics. It reminds me a lot of my childhood when I played it on "arcade" game machines. The bad thing is that you have to be connected to the internet to play. Please update it in offline mode, I would greatly appreciate it. I am the number 1 fan of this game. I look forward to it working in offline mode. thank you !! Please follow my opinion.

Game could be the best fighting game on mobile but has a lack of updates and characters . It’s plenty KOF series characters missing from the original series that should he added on here
