While details were sparse, and not a lot of information was given, the cat has been let out of the bag -- and a new Killer Instinct fighting game is coming to Xbox One in the near future! At Microsoft's keynote at E3 in Los Angeles, they announced the new title and showed brief gameplay clips featuring a number of popular characters from the first two games, including Jago, Glacius, and Sabrewulf.
Take a look at the trailer, as revealed from the show flow:
And an additional short snippet of some live gameplay, with integrated Twitch streaming:
The game is being developed by California studio Double Helix Games, known for such titles as G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and MX vs. ATX Reflex.
Double Helix announced via their website that the game will be playable on the show floor at E3, as well as at public locations around the Los Angeles area that they'll be announcing starting today.
We'll continue to update this post as more information becomes available. In the meantime, KI fans rejoice -- the battle begins again!
Edit: Here's a look at building a custom arcade cabinet for the new game:
