WALL, NJ. - March 29, 2004 - SNK NEOGEO USA CONSUMER CORPORATION, the US publishing arm of the SNK NEOGEO CORPORATION, announced today the company is developing the first original THE KING OF FIGHTERS title for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system. KOF: MAXIMUM IMPACT will ship in Fall 2004 and is the first KOF title to be designed specifically for the PlayStation®2, rather than being based on any existing SNK arcade version.
