Survivor (SNK video game)

Survivor is a tag-based 3D fighting game released in the arcades in December 1996. It was the first title for SNK's Hyper Neo Geo 64, as well as the first SNK game of any genre to use polygonal graphics. It was also the first tag-based 3D fighting game. It was ported to the Nintendo Ultra 64 in 1997.
NOTE: In the alternate timeline, Toyohisa Tanabe (the creator of many original characters in The King of Fighters series as well as redesigned versions of the Ikari Warriors and Psycho Soldier characters) doesn't sign with SNK until late 1994, following his departure from Irem (which had just shut down.) By the time he joined, SNK had already released Neo Geo Battle Circuit, which is similar to KOF '94 except all of the playable characters came from different games. Tanabe's first SNK game in this timeline, Survivor, is not released until 1996. As a result, many characters who originated in KOF in the real events appear in Survivor, along with a few characters that don't exist in the real events. The plot of this game is a blend of KOF '94 and KOF '95 with some differences.
==Gameplay==
Players choose a team of three characters. However, the fights are actually two-on-two tag battles, with the third member only participating as the "Striker" that performs one of their Special Moves against the opponent. .
