Mit Start der neuen Season findet das bisher Xbox One exklusive Beat ’em up erstmalig seinen Weg auf Windows 10 PCs.
Ein freudiger Tag für alle Fans der gepflegten Prügelei. Mit Killer Instinct: Season 3 ist nicht nur ein sehr umfangreiches Update der Xbox One-Version erschienen, sondern auch erstmals und gleichzeitig eine Fassung für PCs mit Windows 10. Das Grundspiel ist hierbei weiterhin kostenlos, zusätzliche Charaktere können auf Wunsch hinzugekauft werden. Die neue Season kommt mit insgesamt vier neuen Charakteren daher, wobei weitere vier über die kommenden Wochen veröffentlicht werden. Insgesamt zählt das Beat ’em up somit aktuell 21 Kämpfer.
Spieler die bereits einen Speicherstand auf der Konsole besitzen und diesen auf ihrem PC weiterverwenden möchten, können dies tun indem Killer Instinct einmalig mit dem neuesten Update auf der Konsole gestartet wird. Eventuell schon erworbene DLCs sind damit ebenso auf dem PC übertragbar.
