Nintendo has kept true to its random mid-week Nintendo Switch Online drops today dropping one of the most iconic fighting games of all-time on the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service in Killer Instinct Gold.
In my opinion this is one of the best fighting games and absolutely one of the best Killer Instinct games, and it’s great to have this on the Switch. It’s available to download right now.
Here’s how Nintendo describe it:
The Killer Instinct tournament is back in this classic 1996 fighting title originally released for the Nintendo 64™ system. Pick from a roster of 10 killer fighters, and test your instincts across multiple explosive game modes. Battle other fighters in classic Arcade mode, pit your favorite characters against a friend’s in Team mode, or face off in the round-robin-style Tournament mode with up to eight players! There’s even a Training mode where you can sharpen your techniques, and with hundreds of thousands of moves and killer Combos at your fingertips, a little training goes a long way. You’ll need all the practice you can get to have a chance at landing a 70-hit Ultra Combo—and that’s if you’re not interrupted by a C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!
