This is just going to add some fuel to those asking about why Killer Instinct is exclusive to the XB1.

Still, interesting to know.

Pretty lame that the 360 version was canned.

 

[Qwark28]

This game is a trainwreck.

Ain't that some shit.

It looks heavily downgrade it.

If ki dropped on 360 the game imo would of had more players as the original 500.00 purchase for ki I even regret now as I just don't play it as much as I should or want.
Would of been nice though if it did come out on 360 even now a scaled down version will help most events.

Anyway when mkx drops , the current price drop for xbone ( which may remain due to a new chip being used/cpu), & think after the holidays ki may pick up. I hope so it's a fun game imo and I do enjoy it

It was in development. Of course it looks downgraded.

Anyone itching to complain about why its not on 360 should keep in mind that its not uncommon at all for games to change platforms during development as things get made and remade. Thats not to suggest that they couldn't port it over or that they had no choice but to develop it exclussively to xbox one, but I just want to make clear that the fact that they were making early builds on the 360 hardware initially doesn't necessarily mean that there's a complete 360 version out there in studio that was ported to xbox one or something.

Uh, this build is a couple months of work away from the exact same game that was eventually revealed at E3. This is not some Too Human style platform hopping redesign. Either KI was always fated for One exclusively and this build exists solely because One Dev Kits didn't exist (exceptionally unlikely since it runs on 360 hardware natively and this is an MS first party), or MS tanked a 360 version of KI (for one reason or another).

Edit: I wish Thunder had his beta command grab animation. Looks way better than the stomp.

Nothing of which contradicts what I've said in any way. I'm not suggesting they could not port the game to 360 if they really wanted to. I'm 100% sure they could if they put the time and money into actually doing it. I just want to make sure nobody gets the impression that there currently is an unreleased working complete xbox 360 version of the game and/or that they could just press a button and make it happen.
