Looks like this Penny Arcade post leaked it.

 

[Star Falcon]

Well, it would have been a sin for it not to be.

 

[keit4]

Unexpected.

 

[Haines]

Im out of the loop. Does a new charachter go up as DLC each of those other rmonths?

 

[StoOgE]

Where the hell is Riptor?

 

[shinobi602]

Shocking news.

 

[Nori Chan]

yes

my body is ready. Idk why people thought he would headline season 2...There won't be a season 2 if season 1 wasn't successful lol

 

[Silky]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

YOU SEE THAT SPINAL CONCEPT ART THO?!

 

[Fruitster]

You can't have KI without Fulgore.

 

[sn00zer]

He is the only character I recognize being from KI as Ive never played the series

 

[zainetor]

I was sure it was going to be cinder.

 

[Skab]

Im out of the loop. Does a new charachter go up as DLC each of those other rmonths?

No, its slots for pins for events of those months. (That book is the from the pin edition thing)

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

YOU SEE THAT SPINAL CONCEPT ART THO?!

We have already seen Spinal tho.

 

[Nirolak]

I was sure it was going to be cinder.

Really?

I mean Fulgore was on the box art for the last two games.

 

[friskykillface]

Cinder got the boot........til the second season


POO GORE or FOOL GORE was how I heard it in the snes version.

 

[The Iron Yuppie]

Where is Cinder?!

 

[sixteen-bit]

Nice. I am a fan of Fulgore.

 

[Kacho]

I don't understand the love for Cinder. It's Cinder...haha

Glad Fulgore is coming for sure. It's was pretty obvious, but nice to have it revealed. Gonna be a long wait for him.

 

[TheUnsunghero26]

I can't wait to see his design.

 

[shinobi602]

I don't understand the love for Cinder. It's Cinder...haha

Glad Fulgore is coming for sure. It's was pretty obvious, but nice to have it revealed. Gonna be a long wait for him.

He was probably my favorite character. I loved his flying charge-dash maneuver (like Raiden's flying charge).

 

[charsace]

Invisibility, teleport, and eye laser bullshit is in place for the first season.

 

[atomic moth]

I want the chainsaw guy with green hair from Time Killers

 

[IdreamofHIME]

How long until thread turns into bickering about who is KI's main mascot; Fullgore or Spinal?

 

[Astarte]

No love for combo?
I don't blame anyone

 

[sixteen-bit]

I want the chainsaw guy with green hair from Time Killers

I want Thrillhouse

 

[Kajiba]

I can't wait to see his new design.

 

[FuuRe]

I want Thrillho

ftfy

Not trying to be that guy but... announcing a well known character of the franchise is a little far from earthshattering, right?

 

[Miles Quaritch]

It's obviously Fulgore. Anyone who disagrees is wrong and should hand in their gaming credentials.

 

[zainetor]

Really?

I mean Fulgore was on the box art for the last two games.

The emblem on the cover was a little confusing and it made sense from a marketing prospective, to have fulgore at the start of season 2.

[ViewtifulJC]

How long until thread turns into bickering about who is KI's main mascot; Fullgore or Spinal?

I'm pretty sure it was scientifically proven to be Spinal

 

[SAB CA]

I'll give them props for including a lot of the big draws in S1. We pretty much got one of everything significant in KI1: Beast, Elemental creature, Super Science, Normal Humans, the requisite female, a horror / popular movie themed adversary, a minority of Color... Not bad.

Combo, Cinder, Riptor, Maya, Kim Wu, and Tusk fans seem to have to wait until S2. With space for 2 new character, or the bosses of old (which I don't exactly think many care THAT much about...). The actually match up pretty well VS the types we've gotten now... we pretty much got the more popular / more unique version of each type within season 1.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

): Glacius.

edit: wait, Glacius is in!? YEASSSS!

 

[GoofsterStud]

The designs have been pretty hit or miss for me.

I absolutely love Spinals redesign so I am remaining pleasantly optimistic.

 

[IOnEI Falcon]

Phil Spencer just rewteeted the news. It has to be official. Mick also made a tweet replying the the Fulgore character on twitter with a smiley face.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

How long until thread turns into bickering about who is KI's main mascot; Fullgore or Spinal?

Spinal is the face of Killer Cuts. Spinal wins.

 

[HoodWinked]

its going to be difficult to please everyone. i can see fulgore having a drastic update from his KI1+2 art.

 

[Silky]

How long until thread turns into bickering about who is KI's main mascot; Fullgore or Spinal?

Sitcom material.

Who has the best re-design? That's right; Spinal. Outta here

 

[brandonh83]

Fulgore might get me to buy an Xbox One at some point. I love Fulgore and it's been too damn long.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

8th character isn't my own XBL avatar?

Pfft.

 

[oVerde]

Fulgore is a ginger cyborg chic right?

Can't wait!

 

[sixteen-bit]

Some people thought they were holding him back for Season 2 to keep future interest high.

 

[JoeyJungle]

wtf, he wasn't in the game already? He's like Killer Instinct's mascot

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Where is Cinder?!

Fire Glacius!

Oh shit, I read that as who. Carry on.

 

[spannicus]

I'm gonna get my ass kicked but I'm getting this anyway.

 

[Leflus]

Ultra c-c-c-character leak.

They'll reveal the 8th character when they release a full trailer for Spinal, right?

 

[Troubled Bat]

): Glacius.

edit: wait, Glacius is in!? YEASSSS!

Glacius was announced really close to the reveal of KI at E3, or actually maybe the first trailer. Where have you been? XD

 

[RedSwirl]

No cinder, no sale.

 

[IOnEI Falcon]

No cinder, no sale.

Has to be front runner for Season two.

 

[Tesseract]

rather it be another new character. FUCK fulgure.

 

[IOnEI Falcon]

Haha! No way man. Sadira is really awesome but they had to get Fulgore or Cinder in there before a new character.
