In case you weren’t aware, Killer Instinct hasn’t seen a major update in over six years. Despite being released 10 years ago, the game remains beloved amongst fans. Back in 2017, Killer Instinct launched on Steam. However, the all-time peak barely scratched 700 players, and the game currently sees a 24-hour peak of just over 50.
