Killer Instinct on PC features cross-platform play and purchases

When Killer Instinct is released on PC, PC owners will be able to take on Xbox One fighters as well as enjoy all of their previously purchased goods.

Controllers on both sides right no Kb & M nonsense.

Do people actually use Keyboard and Mouse for a fighting game?

That seems like it would terrible.

[spartanlemur]

Lol you should be hoping PC gamers *do* use keyboard and mouse, as it is awful for controlling fighting games.

The strength of K+M is shooting games.

[Software_Lover]

Sounds fair.

[AutoCad]

YES !! Cross platform.

Another Xbox Exclusive coming to PC Wow

[spicelicka]

It's a MS exclusive, they'll do with it what they want. Still a console exclusive.

2 years after the fact with crossplay and cross buy. This is a GOOD THING and will keep the game relevant. SF5 is doing the same thing. I already have it on Xbox, so I get it on PC free. That's awesome.

[Software_Lover]

And for free if you already own it. The f'n nerve of Microsoft!!!! /s

Edit: at lodossrage

you will not have to re-purchase content.

[lodossrage]

But isn't killer instinct f2p in the first place?

Unless I'm missing the idea of the /s of course

Lol Phil himself is green lighting these games to PC. So anyone that yells "Ill just get it on PC! Aren't hurting anybody here because that's the point.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Yep MS is really trying to to bridge the gap between console and PC. It works out well for both.

[Benjammin25]

Not for people with a PS4 and PC like me. I have literally no reason to get an Xbox one at the moment. Xbox One is miles behind PS4 sales wise as it is. It's not going to get any easier for them if they keep releasing their "exclusives" on PC.

[gangsta_red]

Well with MS releasing games for PC they will still get customers like you who had no intention of getting a Xbox One.

It's a win/win for them.

They have their Xbox users and users on PC. Either way Live stays alive with gamers.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Well then there's the secret sauce. Buying KI and Gears on PC only helps MS and their ecosystem with XBL and WIN10 eiter way they get the software revenue and Live usage.

As far as X1 sales is concerned people are still gonna buy X1's ppl love to assume X1 sales will just stop or dramatically decrease because a hand full of Xbox games are on PC.

That's not the case at all. Console gaming is still hotter than PC gaming from a AAA point of view.

[PizzaSteve]

I wanted to play this game but now I don't.

[MWH]

no body gives a pizza dump about what you want or what you don't.

[lodossrage]

I hate to say I laughed when I read this comment, but I did.

[battlegrog]

I wonder how long till mcc comes to w10.omly thug is what about the sorta xbox experience like friends ect? If you just buy it from the w10 store it won't have that aspect like consoles and steam
