Vice and Mature in KOF XV: Special DLC characters revealed

The vast choice of characters in KOF XV is quite understandable, as the game features 3v3 team fights, and players need more fighters than in other titles. It seems like the developers from SNK decided to boost this advantage of their game even more.

Two new characters were announced for The King of Fighters XV during Evo 2024. Vice and Mature join KOF XV later this year as Special DLC characters.

The very first post revealing these characters mentions the release date for Vice and Mature KOF XV. They will be available in December 2024.

During Evo 2024, the developers revealed a trailer for these two characters. It’s a short teaser, and you can watch it right here.

While there is still no information about the gameplay of KOF XV Vice and Mature, we can discuss the role of these girls in The King of Fighters series.

Vice was first added to the game The King of Fighters '96. After that, she was included in many main installments, including the previous game, The King of Fighters XIV.

She enjoys violence and even killing people. Vice is a grappler with some effective command grabs and corner throws.

For the first time, this character appeared in the game The King of Fighters '94. But Mature became playable in The King of Fighters '96. She is also present in The King of Fighters XIV.

Mature’s personality is similar to Vice. Both have a hunger for violence. The developers describe Mature as a “ruthless woman”, while Vice is a “cruel woman”.

In the fights, Mature emphasizes speedy movements and a variety of quick attacks.

The King of Fighters XV has an active official league — the qualifiers for the SNK World Championship 2025 happen on the biggest fighting events.
