'''''The King of Fighters '98''''' is a fighting game published by [[DVS Electronic Co.]] for the SNES. It has a different title  screen and is considered much rarer than the Mega Drive version. Like ''[[The King of Fighters 2000]]'', it uses music from [[Wikipedia:Final Fight 2|''Final Fight 2'']], however, unlike the Mega Drive version of '98, Iori is playable. The themes for the characters are also rearranged, for example Ryu uses "Carve a Dragon Wood" (which was the title theme in '00) as his theme, as opposed to "Lift Fighter" in ''The King of Fighters 2000''.
