Tusk looks most interesting along with being menacing though he does have a more sluggish feel to him that wasn't quite for me. The character is much larger than most of the Killer Instinct roster being a slow yet heavy hitter. Tusk is an immortal warrior that's been training with his sword for thousands of years. Halo fans will love seeing him in combat though will most likely be a bit disappointed as they didn't the regular voice actor for him. Arbiter is also a bit larger than some of the roster members, yet not the biggest one out there. You're able to unleash the deadly Energy Sword as primary combat, but also use his carbine and sticky grenades with both having limited ammo.

The character is very authentic to the Halo series with many Elite skin options and his full weapon range. ArbiterĪ close friend of The Master Chief, Arbiter has a long history of intense combat and leadership experience. I wish there was a bit more design in the costumes she has though still a sick fighter in the roster. With her quick movements, and basically teleporting with bats around enemies I've quickly grown to like this character and consider her one of the best of the season 3 pack thus far. Mira also seems to be very foot attack coordinated and also has this great special where she bites the neck of her enemies which was hilarious to see her perform on the robot Aria. The character is quick, agile and likes to throw bats at people which is great. I really like this character, she's simple in design but just a ton of fun to play as. Gargos was a good choice to add, not particularly for the freeplay mode combat yet in the general story he serves as a key villain. Some of his specials include things such as striking through portals or sweeping motions against others. Once more we have a large fighter that's a bit slower in approach yet just ultimately terrifying to battle. Gargos is fear being the ultimate boss of the original arcade titles and having been teased previously to return in this series. I did really enjoy having Raam come into the game being captured well and I was shocked with how swift he could be actually.
The character is also from the first Gears of War game (the big bad guy) if you're unfamiliar with that series and the last guest in the season. These Kryll can act in a variety of ways such as absorbing damage or even being sent forward to cause it. Raam is equipped with his badass massive sword and army of Kryll to defend him. While some might say he lumbers around, Raam can be quite agile with a more tactile approach to combat. General Raam is another large and menacing character that takes a more slow approach to combat. I enjoyed the quick movements of Eyedol though his look was somewhat odd and personally not one I'll use too often. He's the most difficult of the large opponents to evade as he takes up so much space while being quick to catch you squirming away. He also has terrifying combos with some crazy ultimate tricks to be pulled out at a moment's notice. The creature is massive, quick and devastates opponents with swift movements.

EyedolĮyedol is a creation or at least a summoning of a spirit that has its own free will. I also would have liked to see more maps introduced this season as we only got a couple and while they were good, we need more backdrop variety. I liked the fighting style of these characters the most and they were enjoyable to battle with. Five out of eight characters are what I'd consider large and while that's fine there needs to be a striking balance in their introduction.Īs far as the season goes I'd say my highlight characters would be Raam, Mira, Arbiter and Kim Wu. It was almost alarming at just how massive every character was in this season and moving forward we need some better variety there. With Season 3 it seemed that this time around there were three core goals with the roster the first aspect being the inclusion of every past character from the series which is now done, having some guest stars and making the characters large. While I may touch on some of the core game additions that have been added over the last year they're not included in reference to the scoring metric. The goal of this review is to take a look at the introduced characters, maps and content provided within the Ultra Combo set. With that we've come to a close with a new set of characters including some special guests. This review has been in-progress over the course of the third season as I did with the coverage of KI S2 last year.
