微软英国 Rare 工作室的经典作品《杀手学堂》将重出江湖，首发日在 Xbox One 独占登场。微软工作室副总裁 Phil Spencer 上月透露：“Rare 的一个“老作品”可能会在 E3 上亮相，

Rare 及其作品的粉丝，会对微软要在 E3 所展示的满意，Rare 仍然是我们的开发游戏环节的一个非常重要的部分，他们所创作的这款具有历史意义的作品，会在 Xbox One 上发挥真正重要的作用。”

《杀手学堂》格斗游戏系列最初由 Rare 在1994年开发，随后《杀手学堂 2》和《杀手学堂：金》在1996年上市。该系列是一个重要的成功，在《杀手学堂 2》的发售后，业界盛传《杀手学堂 3》正在制

作中，但从未修成正果。2012 年 Rare 母公司微软申请恢复《杀手学堂》商标，重燃了可能的续作的传言。

游戏发售时，将同时发售一款MadCatz锦标赛版街机摇杆。开发商 Double Helix 在其网站上写道：游戏本周会在 E3 于今天公布的秘密地点提供公开试玩。

另外根据 IGN 报道，《杀手学堂》是一款首发日仅发售数字版的 Xbox One 游戏，首发日加入金会员可免费玩到一名独有角色 Jago。其他人都需要花钱购买，价格未定。这会是一种新趋势的开始吗？

XBLA 品牌将渐渐消失融入大卖场，Free-to-Play 模式也许是新的试玩版。

Rare's Killer Instinct is coming to Xbox One as an exclusive, it was announced at Microsoft's E3 press conference today.

Microsoft Studios corporate vice president Phil Spencer teased last month that a "historic IP" from Rare might be make an appearance at E3. He said at the time: "Fans of Rare and Rare IP I think will be pleased with what we're going to show at E3. Rare remains an incredibly important part of our development capabilities. That historic IP that they've built I can can play a real important role on Xbox One."

The Killer Instinct fighting game series was originally developed by Rare in 1994, with Killer Instinct 2 and Killer Instinct: Gold releasing in 1996. The series was a criticial success and, after the release of Killer Instinct 2, it was widely rumored that Killer Instinct 3 was in the works, but this never came to fruition.

In 2012, Rare's parent company Microsoft applied for renewal of the Killer Instinct trademark, reigniting rumors of a possible sequel.

The game will ship alongside a MadCatz Tournament Edition fightstick, though release date and price information were not revealed.

A release date has not been confirmed. Developer Double Helix Games wrote on its website that the game will be playable at E3 this week and in public at secret locations that will be announced today.

Killer Instinct is a day-one digital-only release on Xbox One, and features -- get this -- one character. Jago is free to play on launch day. Everyone else -- unspecified returning characters as well as original fighters -- will cost money. Price is to-be-determined (of course).

Is this the start of a new trend? With Xbox Live Arcade vanishing into the greater Games Marketplace, perhaps free-to-play is the new trial version.
