Rich Whitehouse, the creator behind BigPEmu, is set to launch his new and improved Killer Instinct emulator in beta. Initially a fully-commercial project, funding had been pulled back in March this year, but now it seems that enough support has come through on Patreon to keep the development going.

According to Rich Whitehouse’s statement, the beta release will be made available in just a few days, giving fans of the classic fighting game an exciting opportunity to try out what could very well be the best way to experience Killer Instinct and Killer Instinct 2.

Some key features include:

• Silky Smooth Multiplayer
• Brand New Stereo Sound Script
• Fast MIPS III Interpreter

You can gain access to the emulator by backing Rich on Patreon.
