King of Fighters XIII is an upcoming fighting game to be released for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles on October 25th. The game features Arcade, Story, Versus, and a few other modes, as well as online battles and rankings on Xbox Live or PSN. It has a roster of over playable 30 fighters, including some console-exclusive ones. KoF XIII is published in the US by Atlus.
There are some changes in gameplay compared to KoF12: mechanics like Critical Counter and Guard Attack have been removed altogether, and new EX Special Moves and Drive Cancel systems have been added. The first allows the player to execute more powerful moves by using their power gauge, while the second lets you cancel your special moves into different ones.
