Microsoft’s presence wasn’t going to be ignored at Fan Expo 2013. They showed up with their new next generation console, the Xbox One, along with six demos to try out. I managed to get my hands on the Killer Instinct, the remake of the Rareware classic fighting game under the same name.
Exciting news, Combo Breakers: Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition will be available TOMORROW, November 28, at 12PM Pacific!

This is how you support your first party games! Continued support after 10 years!
The Killer Instinct fans appreciated and the whole FG community celebrates!
Congrats goes to Matt, Mick, Adam and everyone at Iron Galaxy!
Tomorrow we fight together! I can´t wait!
I love KI (still play the old arcade version) but feel like the Xbox version is like a big intimidating chessboard with no easy way to instruct you to play chess.
The game is so deep in terms of little things to do that it makes Smash Bros melee look like a casual experience.
Honestly, doing a combo Breaker is punish/reward by itself but hey you can add a counterbreaker.

Iron Galaxy is celebrating the 10th anniversary of Killer Instinct by launching a new Anniversary Edition for Xbox and PC and an extensive patch several years after the latest update.
There isn't going to be any chance of this being played at tournaments unless it appears on all platforms like all fighting games.
A free-to-play fighting game? This was unheard of at the time, but Killer Instinct has proven it's not only doable, but enjoyable!
"Waiting for the final roster of characters is going to be difficult because what I’ve seen so far is nothing short of brilliant. The videos I had seen of the game don’t do it justice but, in person the game is completely different beast."
can't wait to download this game and start playing.
Xbox-one
Gah just give me KI already!
Lol a fighter game is a really bad example to show what a console or pc can do Just saying...
meh...its really starting to get annoying to see all these people talk about showing off a consoles "power". you know they say it just to get quoted.
if i were buying an x1, and killer instict was a retail game, it would be my very first purchase. that said though, lets be honest- the game doesnt look that much better than the now ancient sf4. sure it runs without hiccups and has an interesting art style, but its definitely not a display of the xbox ones potential by any means.
nothing against the xbox one or KI. i just really dislike how every single piece of software nowadays "shows off the consoles power" in some obscure way thats not really there.
the power of 720p!
