Fun and full of nostalgia if you played the originals on SNES or N64. It's nice to have what I consider to be the better, retro skins for Riptor, Cinder and Sabrewulf straight away. Glacius looks cool, but Retro Glacius is cooler (no pun intended). Season One fighter models are great, the music by Mick Gordon is what you expect, Season Two & Three models are a little janky, TJ Combo has a pretty cool Blade costume but Tusk's victory face reminds you that this game is half a decade old. If you like Celldweller and the music he did for the first Crackdown game and need a fix to get you by until they cancel Crackdown 3, he works with Atlas Plug to compose the Season Three soundtrack.For newcomers, there's Combo Assist to help you get by until you learn the combo system a bit better. If you already got the free version, you know that you won't beat Shadow Lords on your first try, it's about as easy XCOM: The Long War. Or XCOM 2 pre-patch. This is assuming you aren't some FGC Fightlord.Oh, and you WILL get bodied in ranked. So if this is your first fighting game, you'll either hate it and swear off all fighting games, or go all in like it was Dark Souls until you git gud or burn out trying. If this isn't your first fighting game, you already know what to expect from ranked in a game that has people who've been playing it religiously for half a decade, so you've brought this on yourself.

The game has amazing graphics, precise controls, a large selection of characters, many unique stages, and a ton of modes. If you enjoy fighting games I would highly recommend. The only drawback I can think of is that while the stages are well done it really doesn’t matter what stage you select as there is no real difference between the stages except the background image. Perhaps I’m spoiled by Smash Bros Ultimate on Switch since the stage can factor into the gameplay outcome. Overall, the game is still excellent and you are able to jump right into the game as there is a simplified control option (set to default so it works right out of the box) that allows you to perform great combinations of fighting moves simply by pressing a button. Friends can easily compete without knowing much about the game and look good while doing it. Do yourself a favor and try this game out.

i grew up playing the killer instinct games for the SNES and N64 and they have always been my favorite fighting game. the new one is so cool! i was very impressed! the characters were awesome. they kept a lot of the old ones and the new characters they added were actually cool too. i am one of those players who button mashes and end up doing cool moves without knowing exactly what i am pressing. so the thing that impressed me the most with this game is that i did my same button mashing method and it works! i was doing their ultras on my second match. i highly recommend this game especially if you have appreciated killer instinct back in the day. even if you haven't, this game is the best fighting game ive ever played!!! i cant say enough about it, its my new favorite.

The original Arcade/snes killer instinct was one of my favorite games when i was young, but looking back at it without nostalgia glasses, it's flaws become apparent, the game had ok combat, which should be the single most important feature of any fighting game, and although it had incredible graphics and sound for it's time, it's contemporaries where vastly superior games overall.This game on the other hand, was one of the earlier xbox one titles and as time has passed, it's graphical "punch" has diminished, but here's where this game differentiates from the original KI. the combat this time it's up to the standard of other Renowned fighting games, the netcode it's pretty good, and the continuous updates (although they're not free and are released seasonally) make it one of the best fighting experiences right now.

The game is fun and fast. However the UI is very slow and bland.

■GOOD■○まずはグラフィックの美しさ。キャラクターは勿論、ステージやエフェクトも手抜き無しで素晴らしいです。○コスチューム（頭、体、足）、武器、カラー等、アンロック要素が豊富。１キャラクターだけでも かなりの数のコスチュームが有り、全く違う外見で戦う事も出来る。○キャラクター１体１体のデザインが最高に良い。基本的に化け物が多いのですが、骸骨、軟体モンスター、ロボ娘、恐竜、ゾンビ、韓国娘、巨大モンスター等種類が豊富。レベルを上げて行くとアンロックされる仕様。または、すぐに欲しい場合は課金してアンロックも可。○連続技、コンボの爽快感が抜群。必殺技から超必殺技、その後に通常攻撃のコンボが面白い様に流れる様に入る。○チュートリアルモードが有る。○音楽が素晴らしく、効果音なんかは特に素晴らしい。知らない格ゲーのサントラなんか要らんと思ってたが、今となっては付いててくれて本当に嬉しい。○存在感抜群のキャラクターが多い。○操作性が良い。○オプションから必殺技コマンドが全て観れる。また、システムの細かな説明も表示される。○北米版ですが、日本語化されてる。○日本人の幽霊キャラクター、HISAKOの存在感。○ステージが豊富。■BAD■×特に無いのですが、強いて言うならカラーだけは最初から全てアンロックしといて欲しかった。■感想■クオリティーが高くて驚きました。モータルコンバットみたいな感じかなと思いましたが、全然違いました。とにかくキャラクターが こんなに魅力的だとは思いませんでした。日本の女性幽霊キャラクター、HISAKOは素晴らし過ぎて鳥肌が立ちました。キャラクターカスタマイズで髪型や面を装備する事が可能なので、また違ったHISAKOが観れます。自分の中では、今まで遊んで来た格闘ゲームの中ではトップクラス・・・いや、トップですね。最近のゲームは自分に合わない物が多かったのですが、このゲームは全然 別です。分かり易いシステムと魅力的なキャラクター、音楽に効果音も一切手抜き無いです。グラフィックも綺麗ですしバグ等も今の所有りません。日本語化もされるので気になってる方は是非とも購入して見てはいかがでしょうか？５０００円以上の価値は有ります。

je suis totalement satisfait en plus j'ai resté surpris de voir qu'il avais la soundtrack je suis très heureux merci

Great game, killer graphics with all the best characters for your nostalgic delectation!

当初ForzaシリーズとこのKiller Instinctがプレイしたくて購入に踏み切ったXboxOne。体験版をプレイした印象で当時すでに発売されていた"Killer Instinct コンボブレイカー パック "購入を控えていました。結論から言うと、体験版ではこのソフトの面白さは全く伝わっていません。個性的なキャラ＆ステージ。遊べるモードも何種類かありますし、アンロック要素もあり遊び甲斐もあり。過去2作品も収録されているのもうれしい。唯一危惧していた海外版であることの英語表記でしたが、なぜかキャラのセリフも日本語の字幕ありですし、システム面の表示も日本語化されていたのは助かりました(キャラの名前は英語表記なのですがアービターだけはカタカナ表記とかある意味Xboxらしい不思議な日本語化もところどころ見受けられますが)Mortal Kombatシリーズ、 Injustice、そしてこのKiller Instinct。最近の海外の格闘ゲームのクオリティの高さは素晴らしいですね。
