10-year-old fighting game Killer Instinct is getting a «free anniversary update» later this year.
The surprise patch will not only include a balance update and improved matchmaking, but it will also bring 4K support for fans playing on Xbox Series X/S, too.
«Our friends Iron Galaxy are back!» the official Killer Instinct Twitter/X account tweeted. «And together, we’re bringing you Killer Instinct's free 10th Anniversary Update later this year – including a balance update, improved matchmaking, and 4K support for Series X|S.»
The tweet ends with the promise that more information will be «coming soon».
Developer Iron Galaxy retweeted the message, adding: «The band is back together again. Stay tuned for Killer Instinct updates in the near future!»
