King of Fighters XIV adds four more characters, new teaser released

The PlayStation Blog has unveiled a sixth teaser for KOFXIV in preparation for the upcoming C3 Show, Hong Kong.

The trailer reveals returning characters Maxima, Clark Still and Terry Bogard while also offering a look at a new character, King of Dinosaurs. King of Dinosaurs is described as a villain wrestler—a "heel" or "rudo" in lucha libre—but he shares a voice and move set with a character familiar to fans of King of Fighters and Garou: Tizoc.

It is unknown at this time if King of Dinosaurs will simply be another side of Tizoc, much as Big Bear and Raiden are the same character, or if the developers are simply trying to show a relationship between the two.

The trailer also shows off two new stages, Guanajuato Dynamite Ring and Derelict Church. Check out the trailer after the jump.
