I'm sure this is old news but I was reading the Xbox Live Day One packaging art because I was thinking of picking it up for Shadow Jago and noticed that it says the day one bonuses include "Xbox One Killer Instinct: Round One Digital Game."

Have there been any more details on this? It would be nice if this meant that anyone with the Day One Xbox Live card got not only Shadow Jago but the full game with all the characters (same as the "Combo Break Pack").

I'm guessing they are simply referring to the free version with one character, but it seems a bit misleading to present it the way it's being presented if that's the case.

Hey Guys, just went to the OXM Xbox One meetup in London and played some Killer Instinct! It's really good fun!

(Glacius is so OP in the right hands though :P)
 
Wonder how the Tokyo crowd will react to KI. I've always been told the Japanese hate american fighting games.

They like Skullgirls, enough for it to sell in the top ranking PSN games for weeks.

KI is weird. It plays a lot more like a JP fighter than something like MK, and it's designs have a lot more personality and uniqueness to them. But I'm not sure if a JP player will find it to flow as well as they may like.

I think a lot depends on JP players being able to find characters they like. Will they accept Sadira? Would a well done Orchid of Fulgore be interesting enough to kinda go Viral, and being an underground messenger for the game to their audiences? Guess we'll find out soon enough...

Someone on the DH boards once suggested Kenshiro of Fist of the North Star as a Bonus character for the game... THAT would be one crazy crossover.
 
Cool, was it the thunder build or something newer/older?
Also was it hooked up to a PC or a real Xbox One?

Gamescon build unfortunately however a couple of new details:
> This game may be 720p but it looks quite frankly amazing. Particles everywhere! Also surprisingly little aliasing, the upscale must allow Double Helix some breathing room

> Skyfall is pretty useless as is (but you guys probably already knew that"

> The xbox one d-pad is actually really good for fighters, it was genuinely nice to use.

> Glacius is sooooooo OP in the right hands, one guy was wrecking everybody

> The audio design is phenomenal

It was running on a real xbox one! Everything there was!
 
Has there been any word if there's going to be a single-player tournament option? Or an arena equivalent? Zoning out with KI:Gold and just cranking through fools with TJ Combo on Tusk's stage is something I revisit frequently to this day!

Everyone at PAX said the same thing. It was a real nice surprise.

Is it possible that you all just sucked?
 
So is it confirmed that we will know the final charecter tomorrow? I don't want to see sadira gameplay they already spoiled everything about this game id rather keep some stuff a surprise
 
They should present KI at TGS like they did at E3 95:

In that case wouldn't you not want to know the final character?

No I want to know who the final character is I just dont want to see every single one of Sadira and the 6th. characters moves, their stages, their music, their variant costumes, etc. like they have been showing for the previous characters. I probably will go dark on the game once I know who the final playable character is.

I am sure we will know before release. Maybe they will do a tease like thunder.

Well then, you're in luck! Among things we don't know:

All the stage easter eggs.
What an accessory looks like. If some will be included with the game, or just DLC.
Most of the modes,
How the credits earned for play work (shown in a random IGN video).
Anything about the out-of-game UI, online options, etc...

I wouldn't mind if they kept some things lightly surprising myself (such as maybe telling us the max number of colors, but only showing the first 4, or showing a hint at how deep accessories will be, but then leaving all but a 2 or 3 to be revealed only after the game is released).

so it appears the build they have at TGS is the old one?

Could just be what they have available and out for now. "And now, all in attendance in Japan, you get to play the new build, premiered just now, before anyone else!" Especially if they're running on actual XB1's now; could be as easy as selecting between 2 different files.

We didn't get a look at the character select screen, or anything of that sort. It very well could be a new build, showing off old build-safe content.

well... there was only 4 stages available...

Instead of the more reasonable "select file" structure, they should just build in title screen codes into the builds, and tell everyone at TGS to input "UU, DD, LRLR, B, A Start" at the title screen, to unlock Sadira + New Stage & content!

Would be very weird if the Stream on PlayXBLA has a new build, and they left an old one for Japan to look over. "Not like THEY'VE seen it before... They'd never know the difference!" (O.O) !!

What modes lol? Your getting Vs.Mode (Online or with bots) and maybe a training mode. This ain't an Ed Boon production dawg.
