Epic Games recently published a new interview with SNK for their latest projects using Unreal Engine! Samurai Shodown and The King of Fighters XV both run on Unreal Engine, but SNK is planning to get more use out of the popular engine soon. According to SNK producer Yasuyuki Oda, the studio is currently testing an unannounced new game in Unreal Engine. Additionally, SNK finalized release plans internally for The King of Fighters XV and hope to support the game over the long term. Here’s what Oda had to say:
What can you tell us about your plans for new content for King of Fighters XV following the game’s release?
Oda: We have already finalized some of our release plans for DLC content internally and hope to support the game long-term.
What are your future plans for Unreal Engine? Will we see other SNK titles shift over to the engine in the future?
Oda: We’re currently testing a new game in the works that will be using Unreal Engine, so I can say that it’s a strong possibility in the future.
SNK is looking to impress fans after their successful launch of The King of Fighters XV. We can’t wait to see what the renown studio brings soon. In the meantime, stay tuned at Final Weapon for the latest Japanese gaming news and updates!
