'''Killer Instinct''' is a [[fighting]] game developed by [[Rare]] and published by [[Midway]] and [[Nintendo]]. Initially released in arcades in [[1994]], and rumored to use an "Ultra 64" hardware engine, in reality the proprietary arcade hardware was co-developed by Rare and Midway. The game received a high profile launch on the [[Super Nintendo]], as well as on the [[Game Boy]]. Its popularity led to a sequel, [[Killer Instinct 2]].

In the game, Ultratech is a very powerful megacorporation (entities which, in this future setting, have replaced all governments) which organizes a tournament called Killer Instinct. Along with regular participants, experimental creatures created by Ultratech also fight in the tournament so their strength can be tested. Ultratech also discovered a technology to make bridges between dimensions, and releases from this dimensional prison a two-headed monster called Eyedol, an ancient warrior that was locked away along with his rival, Gargos, who would become the enemy in Killer Instinct's sequel.
