Story
The King of Fighters '95 marks the beginning of a story arc that later became known as the "Orochi Saga". However, the only elements from the Orochi Saga known in this game is the introduction of Kyo's rival, Iori Yagami , and Rugal's use of the snake demon Orochi power. Rugal Bernstein , thought to have perished in an explosion in the previous game , had in fact survived and sent out invitations to the teams from the previous game signed simply ‘R'. Only one of the previous teams failed to attend the new tournament: the American Sports Team, as their invitations were stolen by the "Rival Team" consisting of Iori Yagami, Billy Kane (from Fatal Fury: King of Fighters ), and Eiji Kisaragi (from Art of Fighting 2 ).
Saisyu Kusanagi, Kyo's father, appears as a fighter for the first time (having made a non-playable cameo in KOF '94 ) as a computer-controlled sub-boss character. After defeating Saisyu in the arcade mode, it is revealed that Saisyu was being brainwashed and that Rugal will fight once again as a boss character, but as an enhanced version named "Omega Rugal".
Gameplay Systems
The King of Fighters '95 is a fighting video game with gameplay and rules that are mostly unchanged from its predecessor, The King of Fighters '94 . Players choose a team of three members and compete against others until all three characters are defeated. The main addition is the introduction of the Team Edit feature, allowing the player to create a custom team from any of the game's twenty-four characters in addition to the pre-defined teams in the game. Through the main play mode, players must defeat all other teams in order to fight the bosses: the brainwashed Saisyu Kusanagi, followed by a stronger Rugal Bernstein. The dodge and counterattack mechanics were revised, resulting in better reactions from the fighters.
