Killer Instinct - Series in General

Technically he was already in a fighting game as Chaos in Dissidia
but same difference
=v
 
So wait, the Arbiter? I am sincerely intrigued. Good for you, KI, I'm glad you didn't disappoint.

Tfw you will never experience more CellDweller remixed Battletoads music
 
I have to admit, using the Arbiter is a much better choice than Chief, we've seen Spartans in DOA 4 before, and it was neat but not as neat as it could be.
Arbiter having the plasma sword as well as all the other Elite weapons (His armor in Halo 2 comes equipped with a cloaking device right?) fits way more into Killer Instinct than Chief ever did.
 
1. Also Alien, which we've had multiple in the series and even one in the current game

2. nb4 spammy laser rifle

So i just got KI season 1... and i don't have a good pc or a xbox one, but, it was free. yay
 
Meh at Kim trailer. Her corny dialogue and almost NR tier aesthetic dampened some excitement for her. Arbiter was a surprise though and lol already has a stage confirm poor toad. Halo 2 best Halo.
 
Exactly what is NR?

NetherRealms.

AKA the dudes who made Mortal Kombat and Injustice. They have a history of making women with very manish faces.

I'm just happy that Kim Wu's theme is not techno and doesn't suck. I was worried the new guys only knew how to make techno, looking at their portfolio.

Their main genre is not exactly something I enjoy a great deal.
 
I'm really curious to see what Halo theme they remix for Arby's theme.

I'd love "Unyielding" from Halo 2.

Ah ha. Well, the MKX faces are pretty great and I don't really see anything manish about Kim Wu's face but I do think it needs some better lighting.

Yeah they did get a lot better in MKX. But in Injustice it was considered a plague by many.
 
Wait, so Arbiter was in Halo 5? Nothing of value happened in that game so I must've not heard about it
*One video later*
No wonder I didn't hear about it, he was in three fucking cutscenes.
His Halo 5/basic look in KI Looks kinda weird, digging that gold Plasma Sword though.
 
It's a good choice, Halo has a lot going for it in terms of art design as well as music that you can pull from for a guest appearance.
 
Rash will officially be releasing with his new brand of cereal, Boot Loops

(I would photoshop it but I suck at and do not own photoshop)
 
People keep asking for the turbo tunnel as a stage but I'm actually hoping it's the first stage. Think you could work with that more and the stage ultra could be getting shot by the Walker boss!

Nah fam Terror Tube Duckies
 
Rash's Ultra Combo tune is the Pause menu theme too.
Five Stars.

If it was anything else the entire character would be ruined.
 
you know... there more levels to battletoads than the first 2 right?

Not according to a lot of people!

But that's pretty obvious. :V

If we're talking about what might translate to a nice stage it's why I said what I did.

Unless they just go nuts and make the stage Winger Clinger.


PS: also I was the only one that mentioned the first stage (for a reason!). Nobody else mentioned the Wookie Hole.

there are but no one plays further than that because it's around then that you realize that Battletoads is a piece of shit
 
I'd love it if they picked something from Super Battletoads.

Fucking. Terror. Tubes.

I always thought the snake pit was a nightmare I had when I had the flu.

New graphics/lighting engine on Sadira's stage. Colors definitely pop out more now.

So like, was this stuff confirmed fake and I missed it or has nobody seen this yet?

Makes me skeptical that Arbiter isn't there though... Maybe he was supposed to be a suprise?

Unless I'm forgetting something this doesn't seem to have anything to do with CombatFrogs which makes me skeptical, but either way it could mean more BattleToads music so I'm done if it's real

Seems like some dumb fake leak but is going over those silhouettes and the apparently shown stage art for them
 
Arbiter's missing, sooo

Also

literally Orchid's render.

If ya WATCHED THE VIDEO it's apparently Shadow Orchid as they have a design for a darker version of Orchid's stage similar to Jago's

So where'd this come from?
