Earlier in November, Saudi Arabian artist Mashael Al-Barrak won a character design contest organized by Manga Productions in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Iraq, and U.A.E., with the winning design being used for one of SNK’s fighting games. It turns out that this character, named ‘Najd’ in her design, will be upcoming DLC for The King of Fighters XIV, which is currently available for PlayStation 4, PC and arcades.

 

The fighter will come with a new stage, called ‘Masmak Fort Arena’. The stage concept design came from another winning design from the contest, designed by Zainab Al-Lawaty from Oman.
