[RM8]

She looks hideous 😦

 

[Big Chungus]

looks like a soul calibur 1 character

 

[hawk2025]

Oof, that design. What the hell.

Character design had been uniformly fantastic until this one.

 

[LiK]

I don't like her look at all.

here's a rip off stream

(going to be rather low framerate compared to official release)

imo she looks silly in cinematic but looks fantastic in game

 

[botty]

💀

 

[Jawmuncher]

The trailer will help out, she's younger and has a punkish attitude now.

 

[CryptiK]

Killer Instinct has always looked hideous I don't know what you all were expecting.

 

[OverBlood 3]

Looks like my PlayStation home avatar.

 

[wamberz1]

Her face is terrible but her moveset is crazy, dem dragon kicks

Thanks for the link I couldn't find a trailer.

Hmmm I beg to differ. Didn't really care that TJ Combo resembles Patrick Ewing now

 

[hawk2025]

No way.

The new KI has done a great job in updating the characters until now.

 

[T.O.P]

The face is so so but her move set is ace to look at and hopefully to play

The new lightning system is awesome tho

 

[Poodlestrike]

Well I, for one, like her look

Her face has... character, I guess. And her outfit isn't bad either.

And that sweet moveset, lawd.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Wow and I thought SF V had bad faces

 

[sixteen-bit]

Kim looks really cool

 

[Slamtastic]

(Clothing) Design is fantastic.

Face could use work of course.

Man, her character is so obnoxious from the way she talks. She's got some cool moves tho.

 

[pizzacat]

So why hasn't someone done the PlayStation 2 cover art like KoF

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Moves look crazy. Don't care much for that voice over though.

 

[MagnesD3]

She looks fine, people are upset she doesn't look anime or like every other Asian character in video games. Regardless her gameplay looks sick. Also I really like her attitude.

 

[SoldierIce64]

She looks fun to play and I like the stage, the alleyway and diesel truck remind me of Big Trouble in Little China.

 

[Toxi]

She looks fine, people are upset she doesn't look anime or like every other Asian character. Regardless her gameplay looks sick.

Her face is pretty ugly in the close-up compared to the rest of the cast.

 

[hwalker84]

Didn't like the trailer but when they did the training room breakdown and then the few fights... Wow!

 

[Xav]

That face looks like some shit you'd see in Injustice.

 

[RockTurtle]

that face model though...

looks specially rough on the health bar.

everything else looks ok.

 

[BananasWithGuns]

I love her look, her voice, her move set. Everything about her is great. IG did a fantastic job.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

The face model just looks....off? I don't know, other than that she looks fun

 

[Tain]

straight out of the original Xbox generation

 

[Village]

Girl looks like a "how to draw manga style " character

 

[Warxard]

Early build, she'll look better

 

[qcf x2]

"Starving artist, design student, and now... demon ass-kicker"

I'm cringing, but I guess the 90's were just a different time. Mystical warriors were just mystical. They should've just said this is her orphaned daughter or something. Whatever. I'm more disappointed she doesn't look like Kim Wu at all. Her nunchucks used to look like painful laser whips. That stage is dope though, it's like a better version of Gen's SFA3 stage.

 

[Doukou]

Face doesn't really bother me, but not a big fan of personality.

 

[Jane Mansfield]

First pic almost looks like she's doing the "OH NO YOU DID-INT!" look. XD

 

[BumblebeeCody]

She looks fine, people are upset she doesn't look anime or like every other Asian character in video games. Regardless her gameplay looks sick. Also I really like her attitude.

That's not the point, it's that there is a certain way that the characters before her have been designed. She has a flat dull (PS2) looking face rather than what the other characters look like. The level of detail on her overall just seems a lot less.

Her animations looks pretty eh so I think it's just going to be another Maya. Going to give it a go though.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

KI x MK

 

[Windforce]

This.

 

[LiK]

Early build, she'll look better

Hopefully have a better alt costume too.

 

[Streaks]

Dig the Big Trouble in Little China homage during the ultra

 

[Dizzy-4U]

I don't mind the looks, combat looks amazing.

 

[Warxard]

Killer Instinct has always looked hideous I don't know what you all were expecting.

This is a hot take

 

[CalamityPixel]

straight out of the original Xbox generation

Fuuuuuck, that's the first thing I thought, same with the level.

 

[Basketball]

Nrs face quality

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

The salt is delicious. Kim looks awesome imo

 

[Amedo310]

Dig the Big Trouble in Little China homage during the ultra

Wow. You mean with the truck? Sick!

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Iron galaxy ruined it

 

[Coonce]

that trailer is missing Mick's signature sound

 

[Sponge]

Looks fine to me in motion. Dunno what the big deal is. She plays great.
