Killer Instinct is getting a brand new character soon. Eagle -- Thunder's brother -- is set to be released later this month.


Rukari over on Ultra-Combo shared more information on the upcoming combatant earlier today. First up, we learn that Eagle will be included with Killer Instinct's upcoming content update 3.8.

Microsoft and Iron Galaxy are aiming to release the update after E3 and CEO 2017, which are both taking place the week of June 12th.

As of right now, pricing for Eagle has not been revealed. Today's blog does note that this character will not be tied to another community fund, like we saw with Kilgore earlier this year.

Speaking of which, we should be on the look out for the official Eagle trailer during the week of E3 and CEO. In the meantime, here is Eagle's official Killer Instinct hero art.

As far as more announcements go, it looks as though Eagle is the main focus for right now. Rukari stated that there will be no large reveals at E3 2017, and also confirmed that we will not be seeing a Killer Instinct Season 4 at the expo.

Still, we'll only have to wait about two week's time before seeing Eagle in action.
