A free-to-play brawler game called Killer Instinct is set to arrive to the gaming world this year. Originally, it was announced as an exclusive title for Windows Store. However, it has been changed and is expected to hit Steam soon. Here is everything about it in a nutshell.

According to PCGamer, the big reveal about Killer Instinct was made at CEO 2017, which took place at Florida. The developers of the game, later on, went to Twitter to announce the huge move. Obviously, this is a great news to players who have wanted the game to reach the Steam platform.

It remains a mystery, however, as to how the upcoming game will be introduced on the aforementioned platform. Many believe that there will be a free version, something that most game developers do for their free-to-play titles. Subsequently, there will be playable characters unleashed to the community for free.

Engadget reports that Killer Instinct will also offer a so-called Definitive Edition. The latter, in one way or another, provides the purchaser with the base game and the entire roster of character.

It is worth noting that it is among the most highly anticipated brawl-themed game of recent memory. Many have expected for details about its gameplay to be revealed. However, much to the dismay of fans, it was revealed that Steam will soon acquire the title.
