Halo’s Arbiter Joins ‘Killer Instinct’

Killer Instinct isn't the most hypetastic of current-gen games. It was one of the highlights of Xbox One's launch titles, for what that's worth, but was nothing to lose your bowel control over. A couple years later, it's still plodding along as a perfectly decent Xbox-exclusive fighter.

In that time, it's been hit by some fairly crazy-ass DLC characters. That dude from Battletoads was a cool touch, which spoke to me as a keen retro head (who got my ass whupped many times by that brutal bastard of a game back in the day). Where to go from there? To get our Xbox on a lil' more, that's where.

When it comes to iconic Xbox franchises, you don't need to look any further than Halo. Studly space marine Master Chief is the face of the ‘box, really. He's not coming to Killer Instinct himself, but one of his buddies/not-buddies (it's complicated) is on its way to the game soon. Ego-gents, meet the Arbiter:

Those are some fancy Beam Sword moves you've got there, good buddy. Arbiter hits in March, as part of Season Three of Killer Instinct.
