The King of Fighters '98 Secrets and Unlockables (PSX)

The King of Fighters '98 is the fifth game in the King of Fighters series. The game was released for the Neo-Geo and later ported to the Sony PlayStation and Sega Dreamcast. The Dreamcast port of the game was titled The King of Fighters: Dream Match 1999. A PlayStation 2 remake is currently scheduled as titled The King of Fighters '98 UM.

In terms of plot, the game did not appear to have a story; instead, SNK developed the game as a "dream match" for characters from all previous King of Fighters games, including killed-off characters. The series' canon storyline would resume in The King of Fighters '99.
