King of Fighters XV is due out on multiple platforms next week including the Xbox, and ahead of launch, SNK has revealed the official Xbox Twitch channel will be hosting a special program.
Details are scarce, but the event will take place on 14th February at 11AM PT/ 2PM ET (US time). As noted, "Deluxe Edition holders" will get early access to the game on the same day. The standard edition of the game will be made available to everyone else on 16/17th February.
It's been six years since the last title in the series, and the latest entry promises to well and truly surpass its predecessors in terms of graphics, systems and online play. There are also 39 characters participating in the battle and a new story (continuing on from the previous game) with an explosive climax.

Hmm, wonder why Xbox Series X/S version is getting a release but not Xbox One even though PS4 version is getting a release along with PS5 and PC
@anoyonmus doesn't really matter. Without cross play this game will be dead online within days on Xbox.
@JudaiMasters thats fair enough but wouldn't be better if Xbox One users get this too. More users, more money
@anoyonmus The CPU in the X1 is extremely weak, especially by modern standards. The PS4 one is now too but its still quite a bit stronger. Rollback netcode requires a lot of processing power.
Ah to heck with the explanation...bluntly put, the base X1 cpu can't cut it. Isn't a matter of ignoring the X1 base, it just can't do it. its honestly a miracle the PS4 even managed to get it. You can bet the PS4 release got some pretty severe cutbacks to make it happen on the technical level.
@JudaiMasters thats up to the playerbase on xbox, no? The series systems already has a pretty respectable year 1 install base and the lack of fighting games has made people hungry for them. The rollback is actually rock solid so people are likely to stick around if they like the game.
