SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos[a] is a fighting game by SNK. It was released some time after Capcom developed Capcom vs. SNK 2 but has many differences regarding the game system.
The game aims to bring together the best of Capcom and SNK fighting games, but unlike the two console Capcom vs. SNK games before it, SNK was the developer.
The game was not well received [1], and the ports on the PS2 and Xbox found their way into the budget priced department in a few weeks after release [2]. In Japan and Europe, it was ported for both PS2 and Xbox. In the United States, however, it was released for the Xbox exclusively, due to SCEA game approval policy [3].

[edit] Gameplay
SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos primarily utilizes the command system of The King of Fighters series, incorporating light/strong kicks, punches, cancels, and charging attacks. Unlike its predecessor, Capcom vs. SNK 2, SVC Chaos features no air guards and lacks a "groove system", instead focusing on quicker gameplay. Characters are provided with a basic 3 bar system for executing super-special attacks on varying levels with basic filling options attributed to strikes and damage. Additionally, the sprites from the various series received new models and some special effects were changed in command lists (for example, the player cannot increase the damage of the Zujou Sashi used by Choi Bounge by tapping the buttons anymore).

[edit] Notes and references
- a^ : There exists a common confusion on the order of the title, and many English sources list the title as SVC Chaos: SNK vs. Capcom, as it appears on the title screen. However, the title is copyrighted as "SNK VS. CAPCOM SVC CHAOS" and appears in this manner on the game case's spine and in official material. On a related note, "SVC" stands for "SNK vs. Capcom".
