Rumors started circulating of this game's existence about two years ago now and we haven't heard anything since. I'm would normally simply dismiss this as some overzealous fan's dream game that they pitched online, but it wasn't. The game's info was leaked by the same leaker who successfully named and described every character in KOFXIV's roster before it was even officially announced, and later even posted concept art of every character in the game. It's safe to say they knew what they were talking about.
For NeoGeo Battle Coliseum 2, the leaker released the info of every character in the roster and even included a description of two characters who were original to the game. Since then, silence. Now, SNK is hard at work on supporting SamSho and are even developing KOFXV. NeoGeo Battle Coliseum is one of their most underrated games in my opinion, playing like a hybrid of KOF and MVC.
The only conclusion that I can come up with is that the game's development was scrapped shortly after the leak, which would be genuinely disappointing.
