Definitive Edition of a SNES game?! Holy shit!
Nnnnnnnow Killer Instinct has been revived. Anything before this has been delusions.
I really like Killer Instinct but why is it so complicated with all these seasons and different ways to upgrade?? It's really hard to identify what amount of money you should pay in order to get the next season for the lowest amount of money.
There are 2 options whenever a season drops: Combo Breaker and Ultra, $20 and $40 respectfully.
It's...really not that complicated. If you just want the characters for the season, buy the "Combo Breaker" edition of the upcoming season. If you want the characters, all the skins, and some in game currency to spend, buy the "Ultra" Edition of the upcoming season. Those are the only two options.
