Apart from offering up some of the best competition around with their worldwide qualifiers, Killer Instinct World Cup organizer Brandon Alexander recently announced their intentions to host an art gallery showcasing the work of the talented individuals that make up the fandom.

Ultra Arcade is looking for submissions from any and all community members, provided the art pays homage to Killer Instinct in some way, naturally. Samples can be sent to killerinstinctcup@gmail.com if you feel you’re up to the task.

Like many tournaments these days, the Killer Instinct World Cup is quickly moving beyond the confines of a mere competition to become a huge celebration of the genre we love so much. It’s set to take place January 30-31 in San Antonio, Texas, so don’t miss out! Further details are available here.

Ah yes, it’s that time of the year again. The leaves are changing, family is visiting from out of town, and stores will be filled to the brim with shoppers looking to grab (and sometimes fight over) deep discounts on a variety of items. Fortunately, those of us who dare not brave the cold weather and horrendous crowds still have a lot to look forward to in the digital space, and a few such deals recently showed up early on Xbox Live.

While many of these titles have seen recent discounts, these offerings are the lowest they’ve been in some time. Highlights include the entire Killer Instinct season two package for only $20 and a near half-off markdown on Mortal Kombat X premium edition, which bundles a bunch of downloadable content with the base game.

A full look at the current sales can be found below, and we’ll be sure to update our table should more become available over the next week. Please note that all of these details require an active Gold subscription to take advantage of.
