The King of Fighters: Maximum Impact 2 - PS2

Having won the last King of Fighters tournament, Alba Meira took the title of 'king' from Duke. Shortly afterwards, Duke and his Mephistopheles gang disappeared. With the help of the new 'king', Alba and his brother Soiree, peace had once again returned to Southtown.

But (you knew this was coming, didn't you?) the tranquillity doesn't last long. In the space of time it takes to make a sequel, King of Fighters Maximum Impact 2 (KOFMI2) plunges the pair into a series of bouts of bash-em-up action. The character roster has been ramped up to 24 characters now selectable from the start, but there are many new hidden characters waiting to be found, including some fan favourites making a surprise return.

The Fighting system has also been re-jigged from the prequel. The familiar control from the first game has been improved, and with the new additions of Super Cancel and Counterstrike, KOFMI2 will offer a new and truly rounded fighting experience.

Along with the completely redesigned graphics and enhanced game mechanics, KOFMI2 also offers many varied modes to keep the player coming back for more, by awarding many hidden items for those who can complete the challenges. more
