Killer Instinct Gold

Killer Instinct Gold Joins the Nintendo Switch Online Lineup

Nintendo has unveiled an exciting addition to its Nintendo Switch Online catalog: Killer Instinct Gold. This classic re-release from the Nintendo 64 era is now available to Nintendo Switch Online subscribers.

Killer Instinct Gold, originally a port of the iconic 1996 fighting game sequel Killer Instinct 2 by Rare, brings back the adrenaline of the original title with a modern twist.

In this electrifying game, players are invited to refine their skills and strive for ultimate victory. The Killer Instinct tournament returns, offering a choice of 10 formidable fighters to compete in various dynamic modes. Engage in the classic Arcade mode, clash with friends in Team mode, or participate in a round-robin-style Tournament mode with up to eight players. For those looking to perfect their techniques, a Training mode presents endless opportunities to master the game’s intricate moves and killer Combos. With the potential to execute a jaw-dropping 70-hit Ultra Combo—if you can avoid the notorious C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER—practice is key.

As part of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, subscribers can enjoy a treasure trove of classic games. This service offers a stellar lineup from NES, SNES, Game Boy, Sega Genesis, and Nintendo 64, with plans to include Nintendo GameCube titles in the future. Dive into nostalgia and revisit these timeless classics today!
