Reviews from

in the past


I don't know why I was so mean-spirited with the last "review" I wrote for KI, I remember having fun with the game. So, idk.

First Xbox game a while ago and I still remember it. I do want to play the older KI game since it’s hyped up a lot, but this one is just ok.

I really gravitated to this game and enjoyed it more than most fighting games. The character designs were faithful to the originals and in most cases were massive improvements, with a few cases of butterface going on with the female characters for some reason. The fighting was snappy and easy to learn and the presentation, especially after the big update, was really well done.


Killer Instinct (2013) boldly asks the question 'What if modern Mortal Kombat didn't suck ass?'

Very fun combo central fighting game.
Banger soundtrack.

I got really into playing this online and trying to be good at it. One of the first fighters to ever make me do that. The characters are fun and unique and of course all the combo systems are pretty cool.
Token native american tomahawk guy is there though. Sorry.

The music so damn good.
It pumps you up for the next round and dynamic changes while your fighting is so unique. Makes the whole fight feel insane.

It's fun, I only played it because I liked the idea of seeing the Arbiter fighting against Rash from Battletoads lol

Um jogo com muito potencial desperdiçado.

i'll give an honest review aside from my love for this game and its community, its easily one of my most played games ever. in 2023 this game has more than enough content and characters to have a great time. online is a bit rough since most the casuals have left and new players get intimidated or stomped on by long time veteran players. you can still find some new players around to match up with here and there. i believe it will have a proper revival once the 10th anniversary update rolls around this fall!. check it out online if you haven't heard about it, it'll for sure bring in a wave of new players by then. i recommend giving it a shot or coming back when it drops if you're interested in the online aspect!

This is not only a competent reboot, but it far exceeds the source material.
This is so much better than the original Killer Instinct that it basically wipes it from existence.
I loved OG Killer Instinct, but this? This is a masterpiece of Killer Grooves.

The art and design? Peak.
The music? Peak.
The netcode? Peak.
The roster? Peak.

The story?... Well let's just say it has never been the selling point.

But being a microsoft game does come with some annoying details that cut this amazing game short of 5 stars. Am I nit picking? absolutely yes, but I expect perfection from a Killer Instinct game.

I've played both the Xbox and the PC version, currently on the latter one and everything holds true.

Um excelente e único jogo de luta, muito, mas muuuuito diferente dos demais.
Os gráficos são ótimos para um jogo de 2013, e as mecânicas são bem divertidas.
Os personagens são outra coisa única de Killer Instinct, muito diferente de qualquer outro jogo de luta.
Tempo de jogo: 3+ horas

Bem pré histórico pra um jogo de 2013

Gosto muito desse jogo, porém o ''Modo História'' não é lá aquelas coisas, de qualquer forma esse jogo de luta traz um estilo único e personagens que tem um um carisma que nenhum outro jogo no mesmo estilo consegue trazer.

não é pra mim
única coisa que eu gosto desse jogo é o narrador gritando ULTRA COMBO, só isso

This game needs another drop. PLEASEEEEE !!!!

Um dos jogos de luta com mecânica mais inovadora de todos. Legal demais

Those giant special combos where the strikes follow the notes are too good.

Feels a little undercooked but pretty fun.
