The Next Generation of Fighting Games

Evil Geniuses discuses the future of fighting games for the next-gen and the status of fighting games on the Xbox One and Playstation 4, as well as the transition from the Xbox 360 and PS3. Featuring an interview with top gamer Justin Wong that outlines his thoughts on the new Killer Instinct in particular.

I think the amount of hype surrounding KI in the FGC is definitely gonna cause this game to blow up. Heck I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it made it's appearance at EVO in 2014. If not through community demand then possibly through MS $ influence haha

Game looks fast, responsive and fun.

The original Killer Instinct from 1995 was and still is fast responsive and fun. Truly ahead of its time along with Virtua Fighter 2 at the time. This...Not so much.

Theres a few fighting games that have my attention for next gen but wheres the rumored bloody roar reboot i heard about awhile back being made for ps4? Man i'd kill for that. Also, im looking forward to guilty gear and killer instinct just keeps looking better. Love the art style of both games

[Fireseed]

Well here's the rundown on that. The studio that developed Bloody Roar, were the actual developers of MvC3 and UMvC3 when asked as to why we aren't seeing much continued support from them it's because they're working on a new game... one can only hope it's a new Bloody Roar.

Ah ok gotcha. Keeping my fingers crossed cuz that series kicked major ass back in the day!

[christocolus]

so far all ive seen about this game makes me want it even more...it looks good and seems to play really good too.

It will be awhile till Street fighter makes the next gen leap. I'm looking forward to Killer Instinct though. Probably get my ass kicked repeatedly.

[Inception]

Don't know about Killer Instinct. Never interested with the series. But i'm looking forward to Guilty Gear Xrd, BlazBlue ChronoPhantasma, Jojo's Bizzare Adventure All Star, and Soul Calibur II HD + Soul Calibur: Lost Sword. Hopefully Yoshinori Ono will make a new Rival School and SF V. And i'm still waiting for new Bloody Roar.
