    Es un juego de lucha excelente, han incluido muchas novedades, han mejorado graficos, hay escenarios dinamicos, pero le falta modo historia para esta 3ª temporada, y el precio me parece excesivo, en España,donde vivo, son 40€. A pesar de estas dos pegas merece la pena si te gustan los juegos de lucha extremadamente rapidos.

    Negative-Low Score is from the Sony-Haters. Dont mind of that!

    This game just amazing. This is without a doubt my game of the year. Amazing visual presentation with seamless transitions from game play to cut scenes and vise versa. Graphics, Sound, and control are best of the best.

    Este es el mejor juego de lucha de la actual generación por ahora. brillante jugabilidad, plantel de ensueño para los fans de la saga e incluso para los fans de la temática del horror. juego veloz y adictivo, grandes modos para 1 o varios jugadores, free to play incluso. edición de personajes, soundtrack brutal. que mas se puede decir. perfecto

    Incluíram também ultra stages novos em cenários que não tinham.

    criaram uma finalização de combo nova para todos os personagens em que a tela chega a ficar escura tipo um brutality no MK.

    Rebalanceamento total dos personagens.

    Melhor jogo de luta da geração.

    So far, I remember downloading over 60gb on updates for this game. Could be more, though.
    Someone gotta tell these boys at Iron Galaxy that updating is not fun. Specially when it comes to a fighting game which quick instant action is the core appeal. By the time the next 5gb update is ready, momentary interest is already gone.
    Let alone the fact that not everybody got a fast Internet

    Let alone the fact that not everybody got a fast Internet connection and regular updates could render hours of inability to play.

    I'm looking forward giving Killer Instinct another try. When it is finished, that is.

    Best fighting game to ever hit a console. Some of the greatest music and soundtracks with beautiful graphics and unmatched gameplay mechanics. Unfortunately those who give this game a negative rating surely must be bitter because of how hard SF5 flopped but wow this game is amazing.

    Love this game - keeps getting better and better! The new lighting is AMAZING -- really pushes the visual bar and the cast of characters is the best in a fighting game -- such diversity!

    Muy buen juego de luchas. Luchadores bastante diferenciados unos de otros. La historia un poquito floja pero es bueno que rescaten personajes clasicos

    As always one of the best fighting games of these gen, always upgrading and making a better way to improve every single aspect in game.

    i what to give a perfect score but im still waiting for the story mode and a true boss for the game, a non select boss and hard to beat, lets hope than the guys of iron galaxy make a good decition with final boss gargos (sorry about my english, is not

    A game of 2013 that just is completed in 2016... Well done Rare, you know how to innovate in this industry. Street Fighter V may be incomplete but at least has better controls and not make us wait more than 2 years. The graphics are good, but Mortal Kombat X has more fighters and more variety.

    Aeeeeyy this game is priddy gud

    Killer **** where they make you spend 40$ per DLC release but people don't seem to care because it's Rareware being manipulated by Microsoft. At least it's Rareware right? On lifesupport

    Killer Instinct is back with great new characters, an amazing single-player mode like no other and a solid gameplay. A must have for fans of fighting games.

    Killer Instinct Season 3 improves all that we'd seen on season two. Great new characters, solid online experience (crossplay included), deeper Shadow Lords mode and the same offensive an original combat system.

    A serious contender for best fighting game on the market today.
