Summer 2009 on PS3...and that's the US release.

That's...certainly quick.

it's going to feel so strange when i shell out for a ps3 and a hdtv just for kof12. Maybe i should just buy the cabinet? Tho i guess it'd be way more expensive lol.

Man, no Xbawks 360? That's like the only nextgen console my friend got (and I don't want to buy one...yet).

apparently it's confirmed for 360.

I highly doubt it will be released Summer 09 but as long as it's online, as soon as it's released, bye bye SFIV!!

Looks like it's 360 and PS3, scheduled for July 2009.

Hmmm I wonder if PAL will get the same release date ... otherwise I'll have to get a PS3 for this shit haha

Either that or hope the game is region free on the 360 (like SFIV, apparently?).

But it's good to hear the console port is coming out sooner than expected. Let's hope the delay hammer doesn't hit when we're closer to the release date.

Excellent news! Anticipated games this year: RE5, FF13, T6, SO4, and now KOF12. Maybe a bit too many sequels/acronyms, but I don't mind.

New Game Informer interviews Nona and he confirms that the console version (now saying arriving in June!) has confirmed extra characters:

Well, that's good news, I guess.

Joystiq is saying something about an anti-aliasing option, but I don't know why you'd want one for a 2D game - all it does is make everything blurry and obscure details. At least you can turn it off.

The English voice option is kind of a surprise too (although hinted at earlier by the arcade version's credits).

oh dude, online spectating, and 3 on 3 battle now I get to blame my team member who has obvious lag problems for the loss!

LET ME PREORDER THIS LIKE Kriz Preordering Jailbait!!!!

Finally ... my dream match of London team (Gun/Gun/Gun) v Sydney team (heb/FCL/Wolfie) hahahahahaha

US site.

Official JP site for the console versions. Elisabeth and Mature will be console-exclusive characters, and there will be DLC on the PSN Store and Xbox Marketplace after release.

JP release date is 16th July 2009. US release will be around the same time judging from places like Amazon and elsewhere.

Mature? Well, I can understand how XII needs more female characters... but I don't understand what they suddenly have against Mai, or Blue Mary, or Yuri.

I'm curious to know their roster selection procedure, the result makes little to no sense.
