It won’t steer you wrong from having a good time. 10/10 ### 5/5 — Great game but with improvement better *2024-07-17* The game is by far great . Graphics and gameplay are top . Would be better if they can add story mode and endings and prologues just like teklen and street fighter also characterful customization and more stage selection could make this game better . Hope snk really releases an update to the game with these recommendations would make it better . Also it is easy compared to the console game which are hard to master . ### 4/5 — Great Game, But Needs Social and Competitive Enhancements *2024-06-19* Great game, but a feature for a friend list would be good, allowing players to add and remove friends, and even have rematches. Also, why was the team play battle option removed? The game gets boring playing solo all the time. More players please! The current range is good, but adding more from other years would improve it. To make the game even more competitive, consider adding a tournament mode where players can enter with 1, 2, or 3 characters. Characters entering the tournament for bronze, silver, gold, and diamond tier members should be of similar upgrade levels to keep the play fair. Players would register with a certain amount of FM or mystic cubes (the easiest upgrading items to get in the game), and the winner claims the entry prize. I hope my suggestions are considered. ### 4/5 — Needs more updates ? *2024-02-15* Game could be the best fighting game on mobile but has a lack of updates and characters . It’s plenty KOF series characters missing from the original series that should he added on here ### 3/5 — hmmm *2023-12-20* game play and graphics are great.. but problem is you can't play online.. everytime you try to play online, before your game starts you get the message that your opponent connection failure.. so basically you just play with AI. ### 5/5 — I need it in offline mode!!! *2023-11-01* the game is incredible!!! . It has good graphics. It reminds me a lot of my childhood when I played it on "arcade" game machines. The bad thing is that you have to be connected to the internet to play. Please update it in offline mode, I would greatly appreciate it. I am the number 1 fan of this game. I look forward to it working in offline mode. thank you !! Please follow my opinion. ### 5/5 — My opinion about the game *2023-10-29* The game not very good but it kind of fun to play. I think the game need to make the shield more strong and you also could add room creation feature for who want to play with friend ### 2/5 — Could have more characters *2023-10-26* Give more player to choose ### 5/5 — I like the game so far no matter what people say *2023-10-22* Perhaps at the VERY beginning these people say the game wasn’t good but the gameplay is beautiful with the buttons and defense and play mechanics are great, graphics 5/5 being that I’ve been a game tester since I was 10 I see this game as an absolute win , I hope they create more, love it so far and the entire franchise. ### 4/5 — Please add controller support *2023-09-15* Please it would be very playable and useful to play with ## Frequently asked questions about The King of Fighters ARENA ### What is The King of Fighters ARENA?
