So... What happens to KI? DH aren't done adding all the characters and stages to this game. Suddenly, they get bought out by Amazon? This doesn't look good for KI at all.


How bold of you! But no, Killer Instinct firmly belongs to Microsoft since they purchased Rare, DH were just contracted to make a game out of the IP, they dont own anything to do with it.

As for what will happen with the other stages/characters? they'll finish off their contracted work of course.


No one mentioned anything about whether Microsoft keeps KI or not. What was in question was whether the quality of the game will go down. Also, DH will not be working on the game anymore:

Whenever a game gets passed between developers, the vision usually always disappears. What results is typically a bad or broken game.
