Below are the highlights from today’s Killer Instinct stream from Play XBLA…
- Fulgore has a lot more zoning tools.
Reconfirms that a patch is in the works to fix jail and other issues following last month’s update. - When asked about the future of KI with the loss of Double Helix, Microsoft says to keep the faith and that they are dedicated to the franchise.
- Lobbies still in the works. Will not be in the next patch.
- Fulgore has much of his returning moves from the original games.
- New Ultras for characters are under consideration.
- Fulgore is still a cyborg; he is not a full-on robot. More on this will be revealed in Story Mode.
- Very excited about KI going to EVO this year.
- Working on an official soundtrack release.
- There will be another Killer Instinct panel at EVO.
- Will ensure that KI will maintain its same style and everything with the new developer.
- Reiterates that guest characters are far off into the future. They’re more focused on bringing back old characters and introducing new characters first.
- Cannot confirm if we’ll be receiving a re-release of Killer Instinct 2. Said they are very dedicated to the franchise, so a potential hint that it may happen.
- There will not be achievements for every character in story mode.
- There will be more KI merchandise in the future.
- Cannot give a solid announcement on Season 2 as of yet. Based on information and ongoing support for the game, its safe to assume that its locked-in.

They also mentioned that people will be happy about who they got to continue the game, but they couldn’t reveal anything solid yet. Just wanted to add that in.
