    Civil War 6

    The tournament just ended. despite it being one of the smaller Killer Instinct tournaments to date (35 entrants) it ended up being one of the most exciting to watch due to the high level play shown from players that are "unknowns". Also plenty of Fulgore play as well.

    What's the story with the bundles? Am I right in saying that 19.99 gets you all characters in season one? Does that include future characters?

    Is the 39.99 for everything in future? (like a season pass)

    20 gets you all 8 characters

    40 grants all accessories/costumes and Original KI re-mastered

    Season 2 pricing hasn't been mentioned so far

    You can expect that Season 2 will follow the same pricing scheme.

    Another €20 for the 8 characters in Season 2. So if you want to safe money you could just pay €20 for the Season 1 and then another €20 for Season 2 giving you a total of 16 characters. Thats still cheaper than a new XB360 or PS3 game which usually costs around €60.

    Killer Instinct is being released in seasons. Season 1 just finished now after the completion of Spinal and Fulgore. If you buy the $20 pack (Season 1 pass) you'll get all of the current 8 characters.

    Season 2 is now in production and is a completely separate thing from what's available on the store right now. If you want what's coming in Season 2 you'll need to buy the Season 2 pass, which I don't think is out yet.

    This is a match up that is becoming one of my favourites to watch. For those who don't know already Fulgore's game plan is all about building his "shadow meter" while Spinal is all about stealing it.

    awesome set between MrGrimmmz and Khoalski.

    I have been testing this game out the past few days with the one free character. I really like the game and want to buy it. The problem I have is I cant find games online? It takes forever to find a game and the game seems to be disconnecting me from lobbies before games. I have no issues in other games and my NAT is open.

    Is it because I am using the free version or is not many people in UK/IRE and Europe playing it? There is no point me buying it if this is how its going to be. Cheers.
