Max mode of KOF XV

Activating MAX Mode upon landing a regular attack or command move activates MAX Mode (Quick). Also works if the attacks are blocked. MAX Mode (Quick) allows you to combo immediately into the next action without leaving an opening. However, attack and Guard Crush strength do not increase with MAX MODE (Quick).

How to Enter Max Mode in KOF?

For example, Kyo can do a stand C, df + D, into a qcf + B + C which activates max mode and perform his qcf+C special move at the same time. Another example is Kim’s f + B overhead kick into qcb + B + C which will combo to his qcb + C special move while activating immediately into max mode.

Does KOF XV have story mode?

King of Fighters XV offers very little in the way of extra content. The gallery lets players see cutscenes and endings from the story mode.
