I have barely touched this game at all, but the soundtrack single handedly got me in shape. Thanks Mick

imagine playing mortal kombat when this game exists

Really Enjoy this Killer Instinct because of not only the fighting and the way the game looks, but also all the characters in HD as well as the guest characters. A fun and badass fighting game I recommend.

This game confirmed that I am not good at fighting games.


A power heavy, combo heavy fighter that really rewards chaning combos together unlike any other game in its genre. And since the game is 9 years old and completley finished updating, you can see a lot of love and care that was piled onto the title over the years. Definitely pick it up on steam, it's a solid fighting game that still has an equally solid playerbase.

Feels great to slice a ninja up with Arbiter.

A super fun fighting game that feels super visceral with a lot of impact. It's a very elegantly designed and beautiful game and, despite me being a novice as far as fighting games go, I managed to string together combos and got a lot out of it. I felt satisfied and exhausted after wins and a little raw after losses. Overall, it's just a super stylish and flashy fighting game that hits super hard. I liked Sabrewulf the best

Madre de dios, que desastre... Los menús asquerosos, la tienda forzadísima, y eso sin entrar en el juego en sí. Las cinemáticas son una vergüenza, indefendibles para un juego de este calibre. Te cuelan vídeos a 480p cada dos por tres con trescientos cortes solo para introducirte otro tutorial o tienda de m**rda. Y cuando crees que ya ha pasado lo peor ves el sistema de misiones, los consumibles, LOS SOBRES... Y abres uno y te ponen un vídeo de UN MINUTO para enseñarte que hace una de las cartitas que te han tocado jiji. Me he sentido ofendido y atacado personalmente. No lo vuelvo a tocar ni con un palo.

Has the most "hype moments per round" ratio out of any fighting game I can think of... the announcer probably helps a lot.

the announcer is pretty great

Breaks the rules of both Japanese and NetherRealm fighters with its cast of mechanically-unique warriors and rhythmic combo system. Some are genius, others are kinda wonky. Not a fan of the art style.

this is the true sequel to Battletoads. now where the fuck is Pimple and Zitz

This games sound effects (primarily from the announcer) live in my head rent free.

arbiter is the best character in the game

Juego chulisimo con un sistema de combos comprensible pero sin sacrificar dificultad por ello, grata sorpresa y ost durisima

Its got the barberter in it

I love this type of combat game, fast paced and full of "easy" combos, killer instinct needs Street Fighter's and MK's treatment in the community

when the Announcer says ULTRAAAAA COMBOOOOOOO that's true gaming right there

Joguinho massa pra krl, gostei de jogar, mas pra fazer o 100% pqp, boa sorte pra quem for fazer. Gamer Tag (nome no xbox): xTiuJow557

Lacks polish but is lots of fun, my favorite fighter to button mash

i refuse to be anything but a casual in this game, ever

It doesn't quite reach the levels of greatness of the original Killer Instinct game but it's a very solid and 'flashy' fighting game catering to both advanced and casual players with the combo assistance mode.

Graphics and effects during fights are very good, performance in terms of fps is solid and smooth and the soundtrack has some highlights. New roster has highs and lows but overall there is a decent selection of old and new fighters.

One of the best fighting games of all time. Awesome roster of characters, amazing visuals, rocking tunes, best announcer ever and the combos be so satisfying. You can mess around with this one for hours and have a blast. I've been waiting for a sequal for years. This is the single best exclusive on the Xbox One, Its that simple.


Puta merda.

Conseguiram, transformaram aquele merda num jogo decente. Esse KI novo é extremamente gostoso de jogar, apesar de eu não ter quase nenhum elogio pra musica e pra estética do jogo, a gameplay é absurdamente intuitíva, e o sistema de combo breaker é incrível.

7.5/10

The original Killer Instinct games, to me, were decent fighting games but not ones that I could sit and play for extended periods of time. This one however is one the best feeling fighting games I've played. I'm not an expert at fighting games by any means in fact I'm a pretty big casual but I still love the genre and this is one of my favorites. The menus can be a bit confusing and it was pretty disappointing that they decided to go the live service route but if you can find it on sale, for example I got it for $10 that came with the game and all content, then it is a HUGE recommendation. In terms of pure gameplay there aren't many other games that flow as well as this.

We may not have Master Chief in Smash but Arbiter in KI is just as badass
