The King of Fighters: Heat of Battle — About this game
Build a three-fighter team and choose its order for a succession of one-on-one bouts. A defeated fighter is replaced by the next teammate rather than tagged out mid-round. Brief and held button presses produce light and heavy attacks, while rolls, running and a charged Power Gauge create a fast fighting rhythm. The handheld roster includes its own unlockable characters and supports linked competition. Choose three fighters and set their order. Start by learning B punches and A kicks, comparing a tap with a longer press. Hold away from the opponent to defend, then punish a missed attack. Charge with Down+A+B when at a safe distance and practice rolling before attempting long move sequences.
