KILLER INSTINCT ANNOUNCED FOR XBOX ONE

We are proud to be the developer of one of the flagship games for the next generation! Today, June 10, 2013, inside USC’s jam-packed Galen Center, Microsoft announced an all new Killer Instinct for Xbox One!

UULLLLTRRRAAAAAAAAAAAA!

The first time most of us heard it, we’d just pedaled to the local bowling alley, pizza parlor or arcade. The moment you opened the door, through the din of colliding pins or pinball bells, a booming announcer’s voice screamed, “COOOOMMMMMBOOOO BREEEAAAAKKEEEERRRRR!”

Today, at Galen Center, we got to relive those moments as Microsoft announced an all new Killer Instinct, developed by Double Helix, would be available as a launch title for Xbox One.

The announcement showcased three completely redesigned characters already familiar to fans of the franchise. Jago, clad in shredded tapestries and ropes that evoke his monastic background, went head to head with an all new Sabrewulf, bristling with hypodermics, but free of the cybernetic augmentation he sported in past installments. Also making an appearance was Glacius, the cold-blooded alien who can create deadly constructs of water and ice.

All three characters sport some of the most advanced technology ever in a fighting game. All the cloth in Jago’s costume is simulated, to dynamically animate, wrinkle and respond as the fighter moves. Sabrewulf has an elaborate fur system, and Glacius uses multiple layers of transparency and refraction, along with tens of thousands of physics-colliding shards to depict his ice armor and constructs.

It’s been a thrilling labor of love for Double Helix. We’ve always had way more than our share of combat designers and fighting experts at the studio. The opportunity to bring one of gaming’s legendary franchises back to fans has been both inspiring and daunting.

The game will be playable on the E3 show floor tomorrow—and in public, at secret locations in the LA area that we’ll start announcing later today!

Stay tuned to our website and Facebook page for more information as it’s released, and follow us on Twitter to be among the first to have a chance to play! The game’s still in development, so tweet us with #KillerInstinct to let us know what you’d most like to see from the new installment!

Spoiler

It's been a well known secret up until now that combo-crazy Killer Instinct could be making a comeback, and in this months EGM (July 08 issue), rumour specialist Quatermann reveals that spies over at the Rare camp are claiming that work is almost certainly underway on a new Killer Instinct title exclusive for the Xbox 360. Apparently, the game is still early in development but is set to feature the previous title's 2-D gameplay set in 3-D arenas, with the original cast of characters intact and perhaps a few new fighters also entering the fray.

A few weeks ago, we reported that speculation amongst industry insiders suggested that Rare were indeed hard at work on a new Killer Instinct (codenamed; Killer Instinct 3-D Death, Destruction and Doom), and now I guess the whistle has officially been blown!

[raVemjr]

Woohoo! Let the endless combos begin...

 

[sniperfox]

Não tenho nada contra, mas......
Qualquer dia vejo uma nova versão do Target Renegade !!
É complicado por parte das editoras arriscarem em coisas novas, é muito mais facil pegar em séries já conhecidas, enfim é o que temos .

 

[raVemjr]

Não é só complicado, é contra-producente. Hoje em dia, com a oferta de títulos que existe, fazer algo que se destaque é demasiado dispendioso. E mesmo assim, não há garantia de adesão...

 

[Deathadder]

Boas

era fixe se editassem Killer instinct 1 e 2 para a xbox360, adorei.

 

[bynight]

Tenho a versao para a SNES e da N64, sendo ele um jogo Rare/nintendo espanta-me tal noticia.Mas nao é jogo que compre se sair, com a quantidade e qualidade de escolha neste momento no catalogo da 360 esse ficara de fora dos meus planos

A mim não me espanta nada pois Rare/nintendo já lá vai . Agora é mais Rare/Microsoft, lol .

mais rumores

Ah, Killer Instinct 3. For years, fans have clamored for the title. With every mention of it, our hopes rise, only for Loveday to continually shoot them down. As mentioned in the past, it’s Rare’s unintended version of the boy who cried wolf. Teasing as recent as Rare’s Christmas card plus the tour of Rare earlier this year with “Death! Destruction! Doom!” has only fueled the desire. What you’re about to see might not help things any more.
Recently, MundoRare was contacted by someone at Microsoft (whose privacy will be protected) and sent us this. Click on it for the full resolution.

As you can see at the very top, it’s labeled “Killer Instinct 3 -Main Title-” as it then goes into notes. Despite the first reaction in your heads being “Oh, here we go, Rare’s teasing us again”, there might be some form of legitimacy to this. A few months ago, EGM’s Quartermann reported rumblings of a Killer Instinct 3. Not only that, but Nick Burton slyly hinted on Rare’s future offerings possibly being both new and old IP.
Regardless, if the game is actually in development right now, what we’re going through at the moment is a hell of a pre-release promotion. MR will keep you updated as news breaks. In the meanwhile, musicians, why not play this yourself and confirm whether or not it actually sounds like KI, or if it’s music-speak for “You’re not ever getting this game?” Bonus points if you upload it on YouTube and you don’t sound crap.

Killer Instinct teased in Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts demo

Despite sheet music and Viva Pinata cards, Rare has remained fairly tight-lipped about the possibility of a Killer Instinct sequel. That is, until now. Today, we've spotted yet another piece to add to the KI mystery in the Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts demo that went live today on Xbox Live Marketplace.

The message is framed in a whimsical way and could just be a joke for people like me who will welcome a return of KI in this current generation. In the Useless Rubbish section of the menus the following question and answer are given:

"What do you know about KI3?"

"I've heard its going to star Mighty Bottles. I'm knitting myself a bandana just in case that turns out to be true!"

I haven't the slightest idea what the hell the answer is all about, but I do know that Killer Instinct 3 needs to happen. Signs of KI 3 are beginning to point to "yes," so I'll keep praying at my Cinder altar in hourly intervals since it seems to be working much better than the ritualistic gerbil sacrifices.

Está a ficar óbvio a produção do jogo.

Estás a gozar não? Que é que isso tem de óbvio? É apenas mais uma piada dentro do humor típico da Rare, não prova rigorosamente nada

 

[massiveman]

parece mesmo vir a caminho!

Pois e parece que os ultra combos vao mesmo voltar nao e nada oficial mas numa ultima entervista parece que desta vez e que e !

E bem, grande jogão, muitas tardes perdidas a jogar isso na Snes!

 

[RuiBK]

Ora bem, tendo em conta que a thread já existe, que tal o DX ou algum mod mudar a designação para Xbox One?


E afinal isto não vai ser free to play...

Parece que estamos a falar do mesmo processo dos Arcades, mas só que a demo funciona como jogo inteiro.

 

[NuKER]

Ainda bem, é dos jogos que mais anseio desde o já distante da N64.

 

[Daimon]

Fiz uma pequena actualização ao OP.

Ainda bem, é dos jogos que mais anseio desde o já distante da N64.

Mas não tenhas grandes expectativas, nem que seja por quem o está a produzir. Tens outras razões, mas a que referi é uma das principais.

Eu gostei do que vi na E3, mas não posso dizer o mesmo do que vi no EVO 2013. O gameplay com o Glacius mostrou que o jogo tem demasiados particle effects para o meu gosto (nem o UMvC3 com tanta coisa a acontecer ao mesmo tempo, consegue ser tão atrofiante como o KI). Para além disto, os golpes precisam de causar mais dano (algo que também foi um problema no SFxT pré ver 2013). É possível que a versão final de Killer Instinct seja sólida, mas tem uma grande montanha para escalar. E se o que se viu durante o EVO for um indicador....

 

[Masakari]

Muito curioso pra este jogo, refreando o animo quando me lembro qual é o developer. Mas mesmo assim, tem potencial.

 

[NuKER]

Mas não tenhas grandes expectativas, nem que seja por quem o está a produzir. ..

De facto até a malta do nosso site me diz isso, mas pronto eu ainda acredito que eles consigam superar-se.
Teremos sempre a "demo" para testar

Obrigado.
