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!
WE'RE SO BACK

Definitely my most played Xbox One game. Has a crazy amount of achievements so best believe I’ve had a deep dive in this one. The crossover characters are what really got me into the game. Other than that I think you need to have a good amount of skill to enjoy this one or the online community is gonna eat you up. Even though I’m at the bottom of the rankings I still my ass kicked. The “story” mode is a lot of text, I don’t recommend it. Arcade mode gets repetitive. Think there are 8 fights to get through? Play another fighter if you want something awesome.
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.
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.
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.
