Killer Instinct Announced as Xbox One Exclusive

by on June 10, 2013
 

Microsoft have announced a new entry in the Killer Instinct franchise titled, shockingly, Killer Instinct. The game will be launched exclusively on Xbox One and is being developed by Double Helix Games.

Only a short trailer was shown, revealing the likes of Glacius, Jago and Saberwulf in a modern, gritty visual style alongside the typically over-zealous announcer shouting the series’ trademark ‘Ultra Combo!’

Hopefully more will be revealed over the coming days, but right now it looks similar to Netherrealm’s recent Mortal Kombat reboot, a return to basics that stays true to the series roots while taking advantage of modern tech. Just look at that faithful logo, it certainly fills one with hope…

We’ll have more as it’s revealed – the trailer really was slight.

There has since been a combo video released by the games confirmed developer, Double Helix games.

If writing ability was a flavour, I would be the warming embrace of apple and cinnamon - wonderfully familiar and pleasantly spiced. Ever the optimist, I spend most of my game time diligently failing at fighting games (BlazBlue and Persona 4 Arena being the preferred titles), Monster Hunter and Dark Souls. As you can surely ascertain from such preferences I'm a gamer at my most content when a title is punishing me, abusing my feeble abilities and forcing me to improve myself in order to overcome life affirming challenges. Feel free to question my opinions and such on Twitter, @Dalagonash, or find me on every gaming network available as Dalagonash.
