already a gorgeous looking game and that looks even better
 
I'm a little disappointed that Season 3 is only getting three stages, but them overhauling the lighting and effects for all the stages and characters is pretty cool. I'm interested in seeing what else they have in store.
 
I'm all for holding off until S3. I'm trying to git gud with Street Fighter 5 right now and haven't played KI in a while.
 
For any gamers who haven't bought KI yet, there's the KI Collection that should be $60. Although Googling it, seems to have had online discounts to $32 or $40 at some point. It might even be on deal now, since the Canadian xbox site says it's $80, but when I sign in to see my price, it's $60.

So maybe for you Yanks down south, it's $60, down to....... $xx.xx?

It has:

- KI season 1
- KI season 2
- All costumes
- All premiums
- KI 1 arcade game
- KI 2 arcade game

A nice package with a full set of features, characters and content. They way fighters should be.

It does not have anything to do with newer stuff though like KI season 3, since this collection came out a year ago.

2 questions

1. If I bought season 1 how much will it cost for me to upgrade to season 3?

2. Has anyone found a decent fightpad to play this with?

Thanks in advance.

If you have Gold then unfortunately you just missed getting Season 1 for free. You can pretty much buy this game anyway you want. Either play the free character that cycles, buy each character individually, buy a season (characters only) for I believe $20, the season including costumes/premiums I believe for $40, or as Intelli posted $60 for season 1 and 2 with everything. I'm guessing Season 3 will be $20 for just the characters as well.

As for a fightpad, I'm not exactly sure what's out there for the Xbox besides the PDP controller for MKX. It's up to you obviously but plenty of tournament players use the standard Xbox controller and do quite well with it.
 
Cool to finally get a glimpse of Tusk. Also, there will be new KI media coverage on March 1st, so keep that in mind.
 
Can't say I care much about Arbiter, but the other three look great. Is season 3 just going to be the four characters? Thought I read it wouldn't be a full set like the previous seasons, which I'm fine with.

Season 3 will have eight characters when it finishes.
