E3 2013: Killer Instinct 'Free-to-Play', Includes One Character
Microsoft's newly-announced Killer Instinct Xbox One game has been classified as a 'free-to-play' title, offering one character to play as with the option to purchase additional fighters for as-yet unannounced prices.

In a reveal trailer last night at Microsoft's E3 press conference, three characters were showcased: Jago (the character all players will get for free with the game), Sabrewulf and Glacius. "Robust progression and rewards, dynamic challenges customized to player behavior, and predictive matchmaking for seamless competitive fights" are said to feature.

Rare is also understood to be loosely tied to the project, possibly in a supervising role, as it was announced that the game is actually being developed by Double Helix.
