Currently, KI is only available in digital format on the Xbox store. The anticipation has been high ever since.įirst I want to talk about the distribution, which I think is quite genius. This was immediately noticeable from the first demonstration I saw on a fighting game tournament stream. Double Helix Games has done what fans had hoped for, truly upgraded the experience, not just the visuals. Unfortunately, the memories are better than the actual gameplay, and the sessions were short lived. My friends and I would pull them out and play every few years. I have fond memories of the original games. Imagine the surprise when Killer Instinct was in fact announced as launch title for Xbox One…and it is awesome. The legend of the game was almost stronger than the game itself, always rumored to be in development but never a reality. The resurgence of fighting games blew up again after the launch of Street Fighter IV, no new Killer Instinct. Newer, more powerful consoles were released, no new Killer Instinct. The popularity of arcades died down, no new Killer Instinct. The original game was released in 1994 and the sequel in 1996. The thought of another Killer Instinct game had become a bit of a fantasy.
