“Killer Instinct: Season 3 has seen record engagement across Xbox One and Windows 10 since it launched on March 29, making March the best month ever for the franchise with more than 6 million unique players.”
It great to see that the KI community continues to grow. With Season 3 launching just at the end of March, hopefully that number will keep rising and the KI community will grow even bigger!
Microsoft has revealed that Killer Instinct has reached an incredible six million unique users as of March 2016, an impressive feat for a fighting game franchise that laid dormant for nearly twenty years. Season 3 just launched a couple of weeks ago on Xbox One and for the first time on Windows 10, so that number is likely to continue to grow in the weeks and months ahead and more and more people download the game and discover what is truly one of the best fighting games to be delivered this generation. We can all hope that this means Microsoft will continue to support the franchise going into the future, can’t we?
Huge congratulations to everyone at Microsoft, Iron Galaxy, and Double Helix on making this new entry of franchise such a fantastic experience and to Rare for creating KI all those many years ago for the Arcades and SNES/Nintendo 64. And of course, a huge thanks to everyone out there who has supported the game since its launch and to everyone just now getting started. Long live KI!
Killer Instinct had more than 6 million players last month across Xbox One and Windows 10 as revealed by Microsoft.
