KOF XV continues the KOF series legacy with its iconic 3 on 3 team battles. Different teams have different stories and endings, so be sure to check out how each one unfolds!

 

 

 

 

ELISABETH BLANCTORCHE

A childhood friend of Ash, Elisabeth is part of the Blanctorche bloodline, a family tasked with stopping Those from the Past. She joins this KOF to honor her debt to Kukri. Elisabeth is far more strict with herself than others, and maintains a righteous and principled mindset that refuses to make concessions. Controlling light, her fights tend to dazzle any onlookers lucky to catch a glimpse of her in action.

ASH CRIMSON

A descendent of Saiki, the leader of Those from the Past, this young man was once thought to be erased from time. Wielding flames of emerald and an arrogant smile, Ash teams with Kukri to help him complete his goal.

KUKRI

Always scheming between the cracks of society, Kukri can bury anyone who challenges him with his sand-based techniques. His true visage is unknown as his hood constantly blocks his face. He wrangles both Ash and Elisabeth into joining him this KOF in order to fulfil his plan.
