When the EVO organizers announced last year that The King Of Fighters XIV will not be part of the EVO2k18 line, many fans were upset, since the game is still popular, and it was only couple months after it received new DLC characters. Luckily, the EVO Japan organizers are not doing the same mistake! Since KOFXIV is still huge in Japan, the game was selected as a main event title for the EVO Japan 2019, which will take place this coming February 15th.
Below is the official announcement by SNK:

The tournament will be quite interesting as it will probably be using the upcoming balance patch promised to be available in the next couple of weeks.
Are you excited to see the King Of Fighters XIV EVO Japan 2k19 tournament?
