Sobre o jogo
Rugal Bernstein é um traficante de armas e drogas incrivelmente rico e notório, além de um lutador extremamente habilidoso e implacável. Cansado da falta de concorrência, Rugal decide organizar um novo torneio King of Fighters. Ele manda sua secretária viajar para oito destinos ao redor do mundo e convidar lutadores para o novo evento. Diferente dos torneios KOF anteriores mostrados na série Fatal Fury, o novo King of Fighters é um torneio em equipe, com oito equipes de três membros cada, representando nacionalidades diferentes, participando desta vez. A maioria dos personagens vem de outros jogos da SNK, como a Team Italy, composta por três heróis do Fatal Fury original: Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard e Joe Higashi. Os dois heróis do Art of Fighting (Ryo Sakazaki e Robert Garcia) são apresentados junto com seu mentor e o pai de Ryo (Takuma Sakazaki), formando a Team Mexico. A Team Korea tem Kim Kaphwan do Fatal Fury 2 como líder de dois criminosos que ele tenta reformar: Chang Koehan e Choi Bounge, enquanto a Team England é uma mistura de lutadoras femininas do Fatal Fury 2 (Mai Shiranui) e da série Art of Fighting (Yuri Sakazaki, King). Os dois heróis do Psycho Soldier (Athena Asamiya e Sie Kensou) formam a Team China junto com seu mentor, Chin Gentsai. Da mesma forma, a Team Brazil apresenta os heróis do Ikari Warriors (Ralf e Clark) junto com seu comandante Heidern. Além disso, o jogo inclui duas equipes compostas inteiramente por personagens originais: a Team Japan, com Kyo Kusanagi, Benimaru Nikaido e Goro Daimon, e a Team USA, formada por Heavy D!, Lucky Glauber e Brian Battler.
