The King of Fighters '96 (NGH-214) — About this game

The King of Fighters ’96 changes the space between its three-fighter teams with running, short hops and forward or backward emergency rolls. A roll can cross the opponent, but its ending still requires careful timing. Holding three attack actions charges the Power Gauge. A full gauge or flashing life permits a desperation move; meeting both conditions enables its stronger form. Learn a short approach and a safe recovery before spending the gauge on a guard cancel. The new Boss Team brings Geese Howard, Wolfgang Krauser and Mr. Big into the tournament.
