So I went to watch this combo montage:



and I notice it's uploaded by "Double Helix Games". So I'm like whoa, what the hell. I look them up and it appears they really are the developers for Killer Instinct (Killer Instinct coming to Xbox One | Polygon, Double Helix Games - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

So Killer Instinct is brought to you by the people that brought you....

Silent Hill Homecoming
GI Joe Rise of the Cobra
Front Mission Evolved
MX vs ATV Reflex
Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters
Battleship

I seen it also

Killer Instinct was announced during the E3 2013 Microsoft press conference. Made exclusively for the Xbox One, the new Killer Instinct is being developed by Double Helix, not Rare as the original was. No word on its release yet.

Check this wiki for further details when they are revealed.

Don't know what to say about this.

There are often multiple developers developing one game.

Yeah this is true.. How much of RARE is actually left? What parts do you think they're working on versus Double Helix?

I bet it was an intellectual property deal more than anything else. Rare providing help, characters, guidance etc.

Rare might have 1 or 2 guys working with Double Helix or it could be a whole team. We'll probably never know.
