Brand new character introduced in Killer Instinct

A brand new 2534-year old.
Jonas Mäki Editor Sweden 17 November 2014

A new character has been introduced for the second season of Killer Instinct, and it's not just some classic guy/gal brought back from the old days - but a fresh one (or as fresh as a 2534 year old fighter can be). It's a mummy like character called Kan-Ra. A whole lot of back story has been introduced on the official forums for the game, but here's the basic data:

Age: 2534
Height: 5'11"
Blood Type: (when he had it) O
Nationality: Babylonian
Gender: Male
Type: Sorcerer
Personality Traits: Arrogant, inquisitive, confident, and expressive
Weapon: Dark magic, matter manipulation

A trailer showing off his move-set will be released on Friday, and Kan-Ra himself will be available for Ultra buyers November 24th and a week later for those who opted for the Combo version.
