Characters cost $5 in F2P version of Killer Instinct

4.6

Microsoft announced its pricing structure for the upcoming Xbox One fighting game Killer Instinct, revealing that additional characters will be priced at $4.99 apiece.

Killer Instinct will be available as a free download for the Xbox One at the console's launch, and will include a single playable character. A $19.99 "Combo Breaker Pack" unlocks the game's full roster of eight characters, including two exclusive fighters that are not initially available for individual purchase.

Players can also opt for the $39.99 Ultra Edition, which bundles all playable characters, a collection of accessory and costume packs, and the original 1994 arcade version of Killer Instinct.

Uhh what? did you say "buy" the game? Do you even know what F2P means?

McNuggets_Jr This game just gets worse and worse, it's embarrassing...

What's wrong with you? They could easily put this amazing game out for 60$ but instead are giving it to you for free with some characters.

If you're to broke to spare 5$ for an awesome character don't buy it.

OT, I will be buying the whole roster because I used to love this game and I want to support the company
