Killer Instinct Priced In Two Different Bundles
Following this morning's announcements, we got hands-on time with Killer Instinct. The game plays very smoothly, with four of the six launch characters playable at the Microsoft showcase. Jago, Glacius, Sabrewulf, and Chief Thunder are all available for testing. Two more characters will be announced before launch, with two more planned for release shortly after.
Microsoft is planning two bundles. The Combo Breaker bundle comes with the six launch characters, all the stages, and training mode. It will be $19.99. The Ultra Combo pack comes with the six launch characters, two post launch characters, even more stages, character accessory packs, additional costumes, and the original Killer Instinct. That pack will run players $39.99.
Fighters will still be offered a la carte. More characters are planned as time goes on, with fan favorites and classics joining the roster. Killer Instinct is planned for the Xbox One launch.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
