[bloodyroarx]

Normally I'd be like yea covid but they announced this last month how did they fumble so badly?

 

[Shiryu]

This game is cursed.

 

[GooberDooberCBC]

WTF LMAOOOOO

 

[Gunny T Highway]

Goddamn. Fuck.

 

[Orioto]

This day won't be the KOF day but the KoR day then!! Real hype is New year's Evil now!

 

[CommandThrower]

You are tearing me apart, SNK.

 

[Deleted member 1102]

They announced this thing a fucking month ago how do you delay it the day of I'm literally speechless

 

[y2kyle89]

Why delay both? Like, okay KOF XV isn't ready but I have to imagine they know who is in the Samurai Shodown season pass...

 

[Magneto]

Already building disappointment. That's a smart move SNK.

 

[Adnor]

We're not going to see the game until it releases.

 

[jett]

Oh fuck off. How do you announce this shit the day of the reveal?

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Probably editing out the Steam logo after Stadia and Epic came through with big cheques...

[ViewtifulJC]

They're putting the Saudi prince himself into the game and making him S Tier, pls excuse the delay

 

[Seijuro]

Surely they had to see it coming? Talk about a last minute delay...

 

[Karsha]

10 hours before the event really? Has this ever happened, a cancelation so late ? Damn, im so salty right now, that game doesn't exist

 

[OSHAN]

There can only be so much good news today.

 

[King Dodongo]

Just confirm Sieger for S3 so I can relax a bit at least.

This is actually my biggest fear.

 

[Deleted member 11008]

Meh.

 

[Deleted member 29691]

Well dems are taking the senate so I'm good today

 

[TreIII]

I can only guess, at this point, that this has to do with Japan's incoming State of Emergency?

Still sucks, either way.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

 

[krg]

Fuck this..

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Gonna guess the last minuteness of this is related to Japan's incoming State of Emergency situation.

It would explain why it's happening the day of.

 

[Kneefoil]

I can't imagine they would announce these reveals so close to the actual date and not be ready to show them off. They must've had some technical difficulties, or someone who was supposed to be there for the video was unable to make it for unforeseen reasons.

 

[Deleted member 1102]

I know companies don't owe us anything etc. but I legit want them to explain wtf happened here

Idk if it's Covid related. They were hyping it up on twitter literally a few hours ago.

 

[ApeEscaper]

Thought this was a premiere thing not a live thing guess not then

 

[RedHeat]

Can't wait to be hyped in another couple of months

 

[Kaguya]

WTF!

It's the only reason I can think of, but I don't think this was a live stream so it shouldn't affect it?

 

[Jimnymebob]

Lol.
It's still not as funny as SE setting up hype for an FFXV announcement event where they instead used it as a way to tell fans they were scrapping everything and Tabata had left lmao.

 

[Het_Nkik]

The only way this makes sense to me is if they were gonna do a whole livestream thing instead of just releasing a pre-recorded video. SNK do like their livestreams. Sucks.

King of Fighters '94 (2094).

That makes sense now that I think about it. Damn terrible timing if true. Hopefully they can do a quick pre-recorded thing then have the reveal be sometime next week or something.

 

[Fright Zone]

Bummer, I was already disappointed that the reveal wouldn't be 'today' (but 2am tomorrow). Sigh.
