Overview
Description

Killer Instinct 2 continues the story after the first game, thrusting surviving fighters into a 2000‑year‑old past where they must confront the escaped Demon Lord Gargos. New characters native to this era join veterans like T.J. Combo, each driven by personal motives to either return home or end Gargos' reign.\nThe game offers classic fighting mechanics with brutal combos, a dark horror aesthetic, and a narrative focused on survival rather than tournament glory. Players can experience both single‑player story modes and competitive multiplayer battles.

WWF Attitude brings the excitement of 1990s professional wrestling to your screen, featuring a roster of more than 40 iconic superstars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and The Undertaker. Customize move sets and costumes to craft a unique competitor and dominate the squared circle. The game supports both single‑player and split‑screen multiplayer, with two‑man commentary from Shane McMahon and Jerry "The King" Lawler adding authentic broadcast flavor. Perfect for fans of classic wrestling action and competitive couch co‑op.
