While the Xbox One reboot of Killer Instinct (http://www.joystiq.com/game/killer-instinct-2013) will launch with local and online multiplayer modes, players will need to wait until Microsoft launches all of its planned Season One content before they can grapple with AI-controlled opponents in a forthcoming Arcade mode.
The series' traditional Arcade mode -- which pits players against all of the game's fighters in a series of one-on-one matches -- will unlock after the full roster of eight Season One characters is released, Microsoft Studios game designer Daniel Fornace revealed in an interview (http://www.oxm.co.uk/65649/killer-instinct-gets-infinite-survival-mode-at-launch-arcade-mode-after-season-1-characters/) with OXM this week. The game will include six characters when it premieres on November 22, and two additional characters will round out the Season One lineup post-launch.
As consolation for Arcade mode's omission, players can beat up on endless waves of CPU opponents in a score-based Survival mode when Killer Instincthits the Xbox Live Marketplace as a free-to-play download later this month.
