    Fans who pick up Killer Instinct: Definitive Edition in stores will receive a bonus Original Soundtrack CD, and an exclusive character skin: Gold Gargos!



    Q: Wow, that's a lot of stuff! How much will Killer Instinct: Definitive Edition cost?

    A:
    Killer Instinct: Definitive Edition     will cost $39.99 / £31.99 / 39,99 €



    Q: When is the release of Killer instinct: Definitive Edition?

    Q: How do I unlock Shadow Jago?

    A: Fighters can unlock Shadow Jago by completing the tutorial for Shadow Lords mode.



    In addition to Jago, all players will also have access to a free rotating character which they will need for their Shadow Lords team. Players that have already purchased other characters will immediately have access to them at launch.



    Q: How do I unlock the Astral Stage and the Mimic Skins?

    A: Fighters can permanently unlock the Astral Stage after defeating Gargos on the Challenging difficulty level. Players that earn the Astral Stage will be able to use it for all other modes in Killer Instinct. Players
    can also unlock Mimic Skins by defeating a specified number of each characters mimic in Shadow Lords. This grind can be accelerated by defeating Gargos multiple times, which will earn credits towards unlocking more skins.



    Q: During the Shadow Lords Preview, I earned and purchased items. Do I get to keep this stuff?

    A: Yes. All Consumables, Guardians, Artifacts, Astral Gems and Astral Energy obtained is yours to keep!

    Killer instinct + definitive edition

    Hello everyone,

    I just bought the bundle killer instinct + killer instinct definitive edition but when i play it, i have only one character, the free one. When i click on another char, it says that i have to buy it or buy the definitive edition when i click on definitive
    edition, it sends me to an internet page of the game where it says i have already bought it.

    Should i unlock them in the game somehow ? or get to a certain level ?

    Thank you

    Why does MS Store still want to charge me for Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition - XBox One even though I purchased Definitive

    Hi SmokeDaBeastman, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    This is just a nomenclature for the bundle.

    Since you have available in your account all the add-ons from the Definitive Edition, everything is normal, you have the complete version of the game.

    "The Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition will replace all paid versions of Killer Instinct, such as the Definitive Edition… and the good news is that anyone who has bought Premium content for the previous versions of Killer Instinct (Editions, Fighters, etc.) will get upgraded to the Anniversary Edition for free!"

    How do I get the other characters in Killer Instinct Definitive Edition

    I apologize for any confusion, and it's possible that the add-ons section is not available in the Microsoft Store for Killer Instinct Definitive Edition. If that's the case, then the DLC should automatically be installed when you install the Definitive Edition.

    Regarding the comment in the review you mentioned, owning an Xbox console is not required to access the DLC for Killer Instinct Definitive Edition on a Windows 11 PC. The game and its DLC should be fully playable on your MSI Raider GE76 laptop.
