gazmaster1 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Just had an email from Xbox saying since I'm such a dedicated fan they are unlocking all KI characters for me on the 22nd. Does this mean it'll get it all free or is it just a ruse as I will still have to pay but they have ''unlocked'' them for purchase? Any one else?

xhunterrrr Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I posted about this in the Killer Instinct forum and I am sure people will be discussing it there, too, if you want to follow this thread and the one in the KI forum (http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=553447). Hopefully we'll get some clarification from MS soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vSully Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Pretty sure it's going to every xbox live email address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhunterrrr Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Pretty sure it's going to every xbox live email address. If it is, they aren't going alphabetically, haha. I have two different email addresses that are associated with different XBL accounts and only one has received the email despite being very close to each other in the alphabet.

CALIBORS Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Not a ruse. the game will be free with all 22 characters unlocked compared to it normally being free with 1 character. Not sure however if its going to all people with gold or people that have been on gold X amount of time/used the xbox reward scheme or if it will be different in other counties. Makes me want the fightstick now tho awaits the complaints from people about receiving a free game again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggnogga Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I got an email as well about 50 minutes ago. I'm not sure how much I will actually play Killer Instinct though. Fighting games just aren't my "thing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I receive one, they are a good diversive having Ryse, Dead Rysing 3 AND Killer Instinct at launch would be quite awesome if you ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhunterrrr Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Apparently, Xbox/Microsoft are giving out free copies of all Killer Instinct characters, free XBL money, and free Xbox Ones to XBL members! @Xbox tweeted that it is based on tenure, gamerscore, and other factors as to what you will receive. Emails are rolling out now, so keep an eye out! (Proof: https://twitter.com/Xbox/with_replies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkReign2021 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Man I would love to win an Xbox One. My XBL gamertag is 11 years old, so I would like think I'm at least eligible to try winning one. Plus if I did win, I probably wouldn't sell this one.

Emfulz Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) I just got an email today that they're giving me Killer Instinct with all characters for free. I'll be purchasing the Ultra Edition still just so I can get the original game with it. Edited November 6, 2013 by Emfulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
