Take A Good Look At Killer Instinct's Riptor And Holiday Outfits
Monday will see the release of a new trailer highlighting Riptor, but ahead of that, Microsoft has answered some questions about the dinosaur combatant.
You can find the full Q&A on the Ultra Combo forums here, The Q&A also includes the character art you see above, and images of the free holiday costumes on the way for Ultra purchasers, which you can see in the gallery below.
Riptor will apparently be very familiar to anyone who played as her in the original Killer Instinct as all her moves are intact – save for one. Riptor's upperclaw attack is now called clever girl, and we will learn more about that soon.
Riptor and a her accompanying stage along with many other changes are coming with Killer Instinct's 2.2 update.
