The existence of the secret society NEST has finally come to light...
With terrorist attacks happening all over the world, it doesn't take long for Heidern's mercenary forces to figure out that K' and Maxima are behind these attacks. As the 'NEST' organization moves forward with its next plan, K' and Maxima join the KOF tournament, summoned as an officially invited team. Are these events just a coincidence, or are they being sponsored by 'NEST' in the shadows?!
'KOF 2000' brings back the elements that made its prequel, KOF '99, a huge success, while making the game more accessible to an even wider audience. Many hero characters from nostalgic SNK franchises join 'KOF 2000' and help their teammates through the new 'ACTIVE STRIKER' gameplay feature. Hone your skills and strategy with your favorite strikers and put an end to the evil ambitions of 'NEST'!
