"Killer Instinct: Season 3" is on its way, and as expected, the new season will bring forth several characters. One of the newly announced characters is Tusk, a character veteran players should know of.
Tusk is an immortal who has been alive for thousands of years. In no way does he enjoys immortality since he is forced to watch people he loves die on the regular. We understand he was dormant for quite some time, but things changed, the demon lord Gargos is on the verge of returning, and as such, Tusk is ready to fight once more.
One of the defining features of Tusk is his large sword. This thing requires the character to use both hands, unlike Jago who can use a single hand with his sword. Furthermore, due to the size of Tusk's sword, you can bet the damage dealt by it is far greater than that of Jago.
We've been watching developers from "Iron Galaxy" play the game on Twitch recently, and we have to say, Tusk is no pushover. The character is an immortal who has been alive for thousands of years. He has witness the fall of loved ones and entire civilizations, so this is not a happy person.
His fighting moves are that of a man who has thousands of years of training. The sword is also as old, so he's probably the only one who can wield it properly.
Folks who are hoping to do battle with Tusk as their main character should know that he's not very agile, which means players using quick on their feet characters can take advantage. We were also impressed by Tusk's Ultra Combo. The thing is brutal and so satisfying to watch, we just can't wait to get our hands on the game.
Overall, Tusk is a must use character for any player who loves to bully their opponent. The character could also be a good choice for gamers new to Killer Instinct, mainly because his hits are heavy and do a ton of damage, especially when combos are done right.
Tusk's official trailer is available right now on Amazon, while the full gameplay recorded from Twitch can be seen below.
