An inquiry has found that both government and rebel forces have committed atrocities, the AU added.
Despite the signing of a peace deal last month, conflict has continued.
The South Sudan court will use a mix of international and South Sudanese law.
However, there was no evidence of genocide, it added.
The conflict erupted after Mr Kiir accused his sacked deputy, Mr Machar, of plotting a coup.
Mr Machar denied the allegation, but then formed a rebel army to fight the government.
