SNK has announced that Art of Fighting 3 R will be the next game in Neo Geo Premium Selection at Evo Vegas 2026. The R might stand for Re Ignite. The 1996 classic will be getting two previous roster additions to the game in this version – Yuri and King. Both characters have been in Art of Fighting and The King of Fighters series before and are ready to show face here, too.

Other features for Art of Fighting R include the usual Rollback Netcode and rebalancing to the game.

No more information has been given yet about the new version of Art of Fighting 3. Art of Fighting 3 was also added to the SNK Pro Tour last year. High time to see what the game can do with a modern touch.
