LOS ANGELES - OCTOBER 30, 2025 - Netmarble, a renowned developer and publisher of high-quality games, has launched a new update for its AFK RPG THE KING OF FIGHTERS AFK. Players can experience a new Legendary fighter, pet, and supporter, as well as a variety of in-game events.

The new Legendary fighter Kula Diamond, who first appeared as a hidden fighter in THE KING OF FIGHTERS 2000, possesses the unique ability to instantly freeze moisture in the air to unleash powerful attacks. In THE KING OF FIGHTERS AFK, Kula Diamond is faithfully reimagined with the same style and charm that made her memorable debut in the KOF 2000. 

Players will have an increased chance to acquire Kula Diamond through the Kula Diamond Pick-Up Event that is currently available until November 12. During the same period, the [Corrosion] Synergy Pick-Up Summon Event will also give players a higher chance to obtain fighters with the [Corrosion] Synergy. 

Additionally, two special events will be coming soon: the Lucky Elpy Event (November 3 - 7), and the Cheer Up Event (November 6 -19). These events offer players the chance to meet the Legendary pets Candy Sorbet and Pom-pomtese and the Legendary supporter Diana, respectively. 

THE KING OF FIGHTERS AFK is based on SNK's “THE KING OF FIGHTERS” IP. The game features iconic fighters from “THE KING OF FIGHTERS” series reimagined in pixel art graphics that gamers are familiar with from THE KING OF FIGHTERS R-2 on NEOGEO POCKET COLOR, allowing players to build their own team of favorite Fighters and enjoy dynamic combats.
