I will be reviewing the article. Z. Patterson (talk) 20:17, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

@Tintor2: There appears to be no copyright violations.  The article looks well-written, well-illustrated, stable, neutral, broad in coverage, and generally verifiable (with some deficiencies).  I have some points to address.
The note at the top says, "For manga, see The King of Fighters: Kyo."  We should include "the" in Template:For.
Done
MobyGames is not a reliable source, as I learned this is the video game equivalent of IMDb.  General users can contribute to MobyGames.  Also, I see citations to VGMDb, another reliable source.  See Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources#Unreliable sources.  Are you able to replace them?
Removed. Sadly, I couldn't find similar sources.
The sentence "The player primarily controls Kyo Kusanagi, though several allies often side alongside him to form a team against other AI-controlled ones" could have "though" replaced with "although".
Replaced
Instances of "while" can be replaced with "although" or "as".  See this example I am suggesting.
Replaced
"Although the story and presentation were praised for their visuals, voice acting, and expansion of Kyo's life, the gameplay was criticized for making fights confusing."
Instances of "in order to" could be simplified to "to".
Done
Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources#Situational sources says not to cite Giant Bomb for release dates, because Giant Bomb shares its database with GameFAQs.  Can you find a better source for the release date of the "SNK Best Collection"?
Removed
Can you find a better source than NeoGeoNow?  I am curious as to why you used NeoGeoNow.
Done
It looks like most of the article uses MDY dates and American English.  Can you standardize the article to that format?  If not, I can do it.
Added the template for dates.
Per MOS:PEACOCK, "popular" is a word to watch.  I see the sentence, "Among the multiple manga adaptations of The King of Fighters released in the 1990s, Masato Matsumoto's manga The King of Fighters: Kyo remained the most popular."  In what way what that manga the most popular, assuming you believe NeoGeoNow is suitable to use in an article?
Removed Neogeo now.
If you make these changes or otherwise address these points, I will promote this to a good article.

@Z. Patterson: Thanks for the review. I removed the unreliable sources you pointed out but I can't find other sources since not a single Wikipedia has an article based on this spin-off. Added the template for the consistent usage of dates.Tintor2 (talk) 21:28, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

@Tintor2: I passed this as a good article.  Good work. Z. Patterson (talk) 21:56, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
