Multiversal KoF?

Just read on Google that KoF's latest game XV actually gave them a straight-up multiversal cosmology of sorts and the plot revolves around multiverse-affecting shenanigans.

I read the game's lore in the wiki and there are statements that straight-up imply there is an infinite number of universes and that a being called the Mother Goddess oversees their creation or destruction.

"Still, he couldn't stand his master's dull instructions. She spoke passionately of a universe of possibilities that branched off at infinite junctions, a "crucible of souls" traversing the universes to maintain equilibrium, the "Mother Goddess" governing destruction and creation—but it was all old wives' tales to the boy. Not once during meditation did he hear this "voice of the earth" his master spoke of, and before long he grew tired of her fervorous storytelling."

""The crucible of souls connects all universes, converging all possibilities in the multiverse. However, these can only be perceived as illusions, and only a limited few are capable of meddling with them. Those with such abilities are known as 'Amplified Specters'. Neither the crucible of souls nor these illusions appear naturally on this side. But if there are distortions in space-time or resonance with Amplified Specters...such circumstances may entice them to manifest on this plane.""


Does this mean KoF's top-tiers are potentially multiversal+? With everything below that being island+ or whatever closer scaling above that at best?

I need some opinions and input on this.

also, dolores hinted that the kof verse might be multiverse, so that confirms it, overall, the kof verse, as a verse is a multiverse, but nobody is multiversal, battle wise

they still at least island+ levels, but that shows, the verse overall, exists on a cosmic scale, not bad, after all, many series are on that tier, and who knows, in the later games, if they expand on this, they can get some lit cosmic zenkais, even obd vs wise

that also explains, how otoma raga has her own dimension - nardo kaguya style, but unlike kaguya, she can affect, space/time, and even created rifts on other series like, how team samsho was able to join the kof verse, cuz they sensed that rift in space/time, plus the villains from kof14, are her heralds, not to mention, the island+ level cloud parting feat that verse made in kof14 and all, was made with outdated calc method, after seeing this again, the cloud parting feat is actually closer to country levels

So at worst, KoF is still at least roughly on par with Tekken and SF’s high-tiers in average quantifiable feats of attack potency?

But at best, KoF negs both Tekken and SF combined at least in terms of just pure cosmology?

Am I reading this all correctly?

to make it simple, yeah, feats wise, they now slightly weaker than sf and tekken, or tbf, more like peers with tekken, very close, both of the verses being at low country levels, tekken at best, has a better speed advantage, with sf being on a further degree and faster than both of these verses

meanwhile, if we take in account the cosmic potential and lore, that kof 15 shown, kof exceeds more, after the recent reveal, only cosmology wise, not battle wise, as of now

Doesn't KoF also still have a massive versatility and hax advantage over both SF and Tekken by a mile? And maybe numbers advantage too (over Tekken at least, since KoF has 112 characters as of XV?)? I mean doesn't KoF characters have useful attributes and powers like time manipulation, space manipulation, reality warping, power stealing, soul manipulation, telekinesis, telepathy, elemental manipulation, possession, pocket dimension creation, bfr, etc?

Also... if KoF's verse does indeed possess a full-blown infinite multiverse for its current canon cosmology...

Does that mean KoF ranks up there with the likes of Guilty Gear, BlazBlue, and Mortal Kombat (at the highest interpretation of its cosmology with the whole Hourglass's "countless timelines" thing taken at face value at least) at the top in terms of original fighting game franchises in terms of cosmology?
