How Kukri joined the Tourney[]

Kukri is a mysterious fighter that lives in the underground society. He hides his face with a hood at all times. Nobody knows his true identity.

The team ending reveals that he is familiar with Verse, especially with the monster's half-power within Shun'ei. He has been hired by Elisabeth to enter the King of Fighters XIV Tournament to find and rescue Ash, whose soul resides inside Verse.

After the King of Fighters tournament held by Antonov, Kukri leads Elisabeth on her quest to find Ash Crimson. Along the way, the two are ambushed by Foot Ninjas led by Karai, who also seeks a soul who was trapped within Verse.

How to unlock[]

  • Kill 160 Smash Run enemies.
  • Play 660 matches

For both methods, you must fight Kukri at the Masquerade. Alternatively, you can avoid clashing with him by wishing for him from Black Star Shenron, or purchasing him for 710 Smash coins in the Smash Store. After defeating Kukri, wishing for him from Black Star Shenron, or purchasing him from the Smash Store, the announcer will say "Someone else has joined the Tourney!" after a Smash Ball appears on the lower-right corner of the screen with a message saying "You can now use the African underground hooded fighter, Kukri!" He will be seen left of Lady Hayakawa, below Cormano and above Dusknoir.
