Born in 1994 on arcade terminals, the fighting game Killer Instinct is one of the classics of Rare. After several sequels, it is through a reboot in 2013 that the series made an impression, with a Killer Instinct which has established itself over time as one of the Xbox One’s benchmark games, and has since been ported to PC.
Our friends @IronGalaxy are back! And together, we’re bringing you Killer Instinct’s free 10th Anniversary Update later this year – including a balance update, improved matchmaking, and 4K support for Series X|S.
