    Biggest XBOX news this year was about cancelling games and employee layoffs.

    I’d love for this to be wrong, but it’s hard to believe that Killer Instinct of all things would survive the Microsoft bloodbath.

        I think what we’ve seen out of the fighting game space is the outstanding successes are chock full of things to do outside of the core competitive multiplayer (Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, and even Dragon Ball FighterZ). Even if we do see a Killer Instinct that makes it to market, I don’t think Iron Galaxy will have been given the budget to incorporate those sorts of other modes.

    Had no idea there were plans for a followup. I like KI 2013 quite a lot though, and it’s a very complete fighter as it is.

      Yes! They have a lot of epic games that could raise xbox position in the market but they throw all away :/
