SNK's First Season Pass 3 Fighter For Samurai Shodown Arrives This March - Nintendo Life

Update #2 [Sun 21st Feb, 2021 14:30 GMT]: SNK has now locked in a release date for Cham Cham.

This fighter will be arriving in Samurai Shodown on 16th March as part of Season Pass 3.

In addition to this, it's also been revealed the fourth Season Pass 3 spot will go to a character from the Guilty Gear series.

Update #1 [Fri 8th Jan, 2021 05:35 GMT]: After some delays, SNK has now revealed the first two fighters on the way to Samurai Shodown's Season Pass 3 are Cham Cham (arriving mid-March) and Hibiki Takane from The Last Blade 2.

In addition to this, it gave the world a first look at King of Fighters XV and confirmed it would be arriving this year.

King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match was also announced for PS4?

Original article [Thu 7th Jan, 2021 05:45 GMT]: SNK has pulled the plug on its big reveal of King of Fighters 15 and the Samurai Shodown Season Pass 3 at the last minute.

While the KOFXV announcement might not necessarily include the Switch, the Samurai Shodown Season Pass 3 is something owners of the hybrid handheld can look forward to.

While we wait for a new time and date, why not check out our review of the latest entry in the Samurai Shodown series, if you don't already own the game.

The classic KOF games are also available on the Switch eShop.

Were you excited for the reveal of KOFXV and the new Samurai Shodown Season Pass.

@Zanzox I don't know, what I feel is like after 99 things started to go a bit down hill.

The new one just needs better stages, more colour and rollback online multiplayer?

My guess would be that they didn't have the $$$ to produce better quality games.

But, again, I didn't check the time line so don't know for sure.

I've been playing the new Samurai Shodown and it's great in handheld mode!

maybe Is Better to stop producing mediocre game, the Legacy Is ended Years ago...

For me Is Better to play their old games instead..!

@tourjeff even samurai, Is good (I also have It on switch) ...

ss2 for example is a 1994 game but Is far far Better..?

I mean, it's ok as a relaunch point, but they could have done more.

I hope that KoF VX really will be playable in Switch, but, well, it's a wish.

I was hoping for Hibiki, so day one season pass purchase.

Well King of Fighters looks more colourful, hopefully gameplay trailer is out soon.

I still play the old SS games.

It's so cheap in the Russian eshop right now...

Pretty cool the game is still getting more DLC.

I personally don't own it, but I play the ever living heck out of some Samurai Shodown V Special.

Now I don't have to play SNK vs Capcom 2 to have a dream match with a SamSho character against her or vice-versa!

Also, at the expense of having another fighting game IP to basically become another crossover series', perhaps a character from Soul Calibur (Taki, Xianghua, or Sophitia) since Haohmaru showed up in Soul Calibur 6?

why is this game so blurry.

@John_Deacon I've got it on PS4 and it's great.

It's like the old games but the inputs are more lenient, some of the Super Moves are great.

@stinkyx there is an online mode but I haven't tried it yet and don't know if you need a Nintendo subscription to use it.

@stinkyx It's quite good

It's much better than DBFighterz but not as good as Cross Tag

I've read that is better than on PS4 but I don't have that system so I can't confirm that

Even though it's just a guest appearance, I hope it's either Sol Badguy, Ky Kiske, or Chipp Zanuff

@Ghost_of_Hasashi I'm personally hoping it's Baiken or the new Vampire Samurai they've added to Strive

OK, I don't know a whole lot about GG, but when choosing a potential character to crossover with your game, you'd think your options are pretty clear: May or Dizzy

@Sabrewing Damn love the Street Fighter EX games, I'll definitely look forward to that too

I don't even know what a season pass even is

Nor do I want to know, because I have enough games already

So, although I'm a huge fan of Phantasy Star I, II, III and IV, I have no interest in the online Phantasy Star game that was recently released on Switch

I know I'm not the only one who's like that

People don’t have issues with DLC or online games (I say this as a mostly single player or local gamer); folks have issues with pay to win mechanics/micro transactions and on disk DLC

The fighting game community is also pretty ok with season passes as it adds longevity to a game without the old 90’s new release cycle (main offender is SFII)

Game journalist says it's "100%" happening

And it's 50 minutes long
