- Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2014Any Killer Instinct fan should have a copy of this book! It includes introduction, history to KI, artwork, and developers Q&A. It also has a pull out Jago tutorial as well as an on-line code at Primagames for the other characters tutorials. Combo on!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2013Great book full of both 2D concept art and 3D art renders. Tons of images you can't easily find online. The history of the characters are well covered, as well as the provided mobile strategy online portions for each character. All prints are full color with multiple angles of the game characters. There are more concept pieces than you can count for each character including their inception.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2014I've been a fan of Killer Instinct since the very first game for SNES. This is a must have for any KI fan. It has the history of the old and current game. Great art work, strategy guide codes, and interviews.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2013This book is beautiful! It shows the design process of all the characters, all the alternate costumes, and gives you sneak peaks at future characters and content that will be available later this year.
It is an art book, and not a strategy guide. But for $22 and 256 pages, this book is a bargain!!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2014Honestly it's great fan service, but I do wish Prima Games made physical copies of the individual character guides rather than digital. Though I do understand the more update-able choice of making them digital. The new KI in of itself is mainly all digital due to the rollout concept for content.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2013An art book about the game Killer Instinct for the Xbox one! Includes the history of KI, character profiles, interviews with the gamer creators and many kinds of art work from concepts, 3D models, accessories, retro costumes and stages. The art book also includes a small pullout Jago strategy guide with a free redeemable code for the full eGuide at Prima Games website.
NOTE: Because Killer Instinct is a digital title that will constantly be updating, Prima Games stated in the art book that they decided to make the game guide digital as well. As new characters will be added, the eGuide will be updated throughout the life the game. Hope this clears any misunderstanding on Amazon's product page.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2013This is a good art book. You get to read the designers take on the game as they talk about keeping the game on its roots. You get to see the character designs and how the upcoming DLC costumes will look.
A good buy for those interested in game history.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2015its great to have but I was targeting concept art works that it has inside. Not too much work shown, but again its a guide. So I would rate higher if the book has more concept art work

GMReviewed in Italy on April 20, 20145.0 out of 5 stars Un gradito accompagnamento al ritorno del grande picchiaduro!
L'artbook merita senza dubbio il nome di Ultra Fan Book, e non solo per la citazione ai termini del gioco, ma proprio per la mole spropositata di contenuti! Visualizzazioni e studi, sia 3D che disegnati, tanto dei personaggi e costumi quanto degli ambienti, corredati da moltissimi commenti degli sviluppatori.
Come se non fosse abbastanza, un codice per scaricare la guida ai personaggi e strategie di gioco che andrà espandendosi gratuitamente man mano che verranno rilasciati i successivi personaggi!
Un must-have!

JonathanReviewed in Canada on January 7, 20145.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!
Really great book! Detailing each characters in the new Killer Instinct game. Showing the early concept arts to the final products. It also shows off each of the character's stages, all of their accessories... All in all, if you've been a fan of KI since the mid 90's, or to this new one, this purchase is a no-brainer. :)

せくたーReviewed in Japan on August 23, 20153.0 out of 5 stars タイトル通り
XBOX ONE用ソフト、キラーインスティンクトのシーズン1のキャラの設定資料集です。
攻略は載ってませんが、付録としてJAGOの攻略冊子とPRIMAのオフィシャルサイトで
全キャラの攻略が見れる様になるプロダクトコードがついてます。
ガイドブックではない事と、ゲーム自体がXBOX ONE用との事で好みが分かれると思います。

Juan Ignacio González AguadoReviewed in Spain on April 11, 20145.0 out of 5 stars Gran Libro de desarrollo de Killer Instinct
Fantástico libro en el que se muestra el proceso de desarrollo del videojuego de XBOX ONE Killer instinct, ha tardado dos semanas en llegarme pero mereció la pena esperar, me encanta!
