King of Fighters: Sky Stage has been announced for release in America on Xbox Live Arcade! This was revealed via the ESRB ratings board.
Sky Stage is known as being a vertically scrolling shoot ’em up game in which players actually control characters from the King of Fighters universe themselves, instead of controlling a ship. You may have seen one of these unique schmup’s before. They are kinda their own sub-genre of the Schmup genre in the Land of the Rising Sun (some of you may be familiar with a the PS2 game called Castle of Shikigami 2 and the Wii sequel, Castle of Shikigami 3, both of which are the same type of “schmup-with-human-as-the-ship” games).
What’s even more funny about this revelation thanks to the ESRB is their description of the game’s more “Mature themes”. One of which reads,
“A still-frame image of a female character is shown frequently; the character wears a revealing outfit that accentuates her buttocks and displays large amounts of cleavage.”
. . . Cleavage for the win! Anyone who knows King of Fighters knows that the character in question if the lovely, large-breasted, scantily-clad Mai.
Thankfully for us, while the game hasn’t been officially announced, an ESRB rating means that we should see the game on American Xbox Live shops soon. Huzzuh!
