Killer Instinct Turns 30

Killer Instinct might not be the most prolific franchise in the world of fighting game, but it sure is memorable and incredibly impactful for both the history and community of fighting games.

It feels like just yesterday, it was October 28, 1994, and now it's already 2024, the 30th anniversary of Killer Instinct.

Such an occasion cannot go without at least some celebration, so Killer Instinct is offering big XP bonuses to all players (though buying the game (who doesn't own KI?) will boost it further).

Eighty Sixed is not missing out on this occasion either, offering a free KI pin for those who buy over $25 worth of products from their Killer Instinct collection.

It would certainly be great to have Microsoft acknowledge this franchise a bit more than not at all, but alas, it's nice to see that it's in the loving hands of Iron Galaxy.
