There's no killing Killer Instinct.

for the game released last week that begins the process of moving Killer Instinct over to a new server backend.

"Over the last five years," read the update,"it has become more challenging to deal with issues that crop up due to KI’s reliance on legacy services". So the game's makers have"started migrating KI’s legacy services to PlayFab services, a process which will happen over the next several months". If you're still a Killer Instinct stalwart, you might run into load times lasting"40-60 seconds, but potentially minutes depending on your connection speed," and a warning that the game is"Refreshing DLC Timeout" next time you play, but otherwise the game should be the same as it ever was.

When you consider that this version of Killer Instinct actually released a full 10 years ago—only the PC version came out in 2016—and this server shift applies to all platforms, it's honestly quite heartening . I mean, maybe itbe impressive that a game isn't simply shutting its doors forever as soon as it reaches a certain age, but these are the times we live in. Now if only everyone else could do the same.
