    Saw this announced on Max’s stream and it was so damn hype, that guy pretty much single handedly brought this game back to life.

    Sidenote: I didn’t realize it was Iron Galaxy making the update, that sort of has me worried. Iron Galaxy isn’t really known for it’s quality PC titles. 😅

      What? Iron Galaxy are the ones that handled Killer Instinct for most of the life of the game (season 2 onwards) and are also the ones that brought the game to pc. They have also done plenty of ports to different platforms without any problems, most of their known shitty ports for pc are more on the companies that contracted them than on them as far we know.

        We all remember the Arkham Knight port and Uncharted and The Last of Us PC ports. I don’t have faith in Iron Galaxy.

          Lol.

          First, uncharted wasnt a disaster of a launch

          Second, TLOU was handled mostly in house by Naughty Dog

          Third https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Galaxy Iron Galaxy has plenty of more than good ports for PC and different consoles

          Fourth, like i said, Iron Galaxy are the team behind Killer Instinct and the guys that did Seasons 2-3 (and 4/extra content), and the ones that ported the game to pc and works more than well, its only normal they are the ones behind the patch.

          I understand most people in gaming forums dont read past pcgamers articles headlines, but really, its not that hard to look for a bit more info before making baseless comments

            Absolutely not baseless, they have a proven track record of bad work. I’m merely stating that I won’t hold my breath for this one, if it turns out good then great, but otherwise I wouldn’t be surprised.

              Well, you can check their whole list of ported games in the link i shared above and see that it is indeed baseless, but you do you. Also what you mention makes no sense, Killer Instinct is already ported on PC (by them) and they are just going to update it for Series S and X which is already playable, and again, they are the studio behind Killer Instinct Season 2 onwards.
