King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match Final Edition
One of the deepest 2D fighters SNK ever built, packed with nearly 60 characters and three different rulesets to tinker with.
GamerScout Verdict
A rock-solid pick for King of Fighters loyalists and 2D fighting game grinders, not a beginner-friendly first fighter.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match Final Edition
Fighting game diehards who already know the King of Fighters name will feel right at home here, while anyone hoping for a modern rollback-netcode experience should look elsewhere. This is King of Fighters '98 in its most stacked form: nearly 60 fighters across dozens of teams, three selectable rulesets (Advanced, Extra, and Ultimate) that change how supers, dodges, and counters work, and the classic 3-on-3 striker system where a fourth character jumps in for a single assist move. It's dense, technical, and unapologetically old-school, closer to a museum piece than a live-service fighter. What still works is the roster variety and the sheer amount of team-building freedom, since mixing rulesets changes the whole feel of a match. What doesn't: no frills beyond the fighting itself, and newcomers will want a wiki open just to parse the mechanics. This is a pick for genre veterans and King of Fighters completionists, not a first fighting game.
