"Evil Geniuses' Justin Wong has chimed in with some positive words about the upcoming Killer Instinct reboot.

...

"Out of all the next-gen fighting games we currently know about, I think Killer Instinct has the biggest potential to blow up in the community," Wong said on Evil Geniuses' official site. "It's like a revival for the series." He goes on to cite Double Helix's willingness to give the community multiple opportunities to try the game, which has certainly been an omen for success since Capcom adopted the practice with Street Fighter 4 in 2009.

 ...

"You can look forward to me streaming some Killer Instinct this fall, though. That's for sure!" said Justin, who's looking to grab an Xbox One at launch. If he can work his magic and highlight its strengths to his audience, it could certainly go a long way towards the game gaining traction in competitive circles."

The Fighting genre could use a new challenger.

What do they mean by "Blow-up" ? If anything it'll be even lucky to achieve a fraction of what smash bros will sell because this game appears to have a poor amount of content for the price.

20 dollars for 8 characters sounds good to me

That's without a campaign and everthing else. The only modes that you get are practice and online matches. With $20 I could spend that on a GTA DLC or some other DLC that has more to offer than what killer instinct offers.

Story mode comes out early next year with the last 2 characters.
