One of the best side-scrolling beat 'em ups ever made:
This game/series seems pretty rad (especially now that I'm reading the source material atm). That said, whenever I look it up I get confused by all the versions and revisions for each game, and there isn't a lot of info out there on the differences. Good to know this entry is a solid one though.
That's good to know then! I was unsure because there were later (and earlier??) versions of KoV2 that had larger rosters, which as you can imagine makes things a bit confusing haha
It’s kind of weird, New Legend (the update after this one) actually has fewer characters than this one! It has a few more characters unlocked by default, but it dropped the secret playable bosses you can get in 9D with a code.
Yeah it's definitely confusing and that's not even getting into the like four versions of KOV1 that there appear to me. I'm not even sure if there are changes to the system mechanics or just the roster changes too. I wish I could actually find info about all the differences between iterations but I haven't had much success.
There's more info about that in Chinese but that doesn't help much in English, huh? AFAICT, it's:
Dang that's pretty comprehensive I'll have to pin this comment somewhere so I can reference it later lol I feel like wiki is lying to me about which game has more characters then but also it could just be wrong or listing the characters in the game even if they're unplayable. At least with KOV1 it's straightforward enough. My assumption was also that Seven Spirits was its own thing, but I suppose I'm not 100% on that.
Seven Spirits is its own thing, and a lot of fun!

Nice! It looked pretty neat, I assumed it was different just due to being on different hardware (I actually only discovered this series when I was looking into what games the Atomiswave had), but maybe the alternate versions of 1 and 2 are also ports to different hardware too haha
