If you plan on playing Killer Instinct Season 3 on Windows 10 make sure you start up the Xbox One version first to sync your save file.

Killer Instinct Season 3 released today on Xbox One and Windows 10 with at least one known issue. Unfortunately this issue does not seem to have gotten much press. In a post on one of the leading Killer Instinct fan sites, Daniel Duncan said “I encourage each and every one of you who plans to play both the Xbox One and Windows 10 version of Killer Instinct to read this post very carefully and take note of it! When Season 3 launches tomorrow, you must first sign into the game on your Xbox One console before you sign in to Windows 10. If you do not do this, your data will not carry over to the Windows 10 version and you’ll be starting the game with new save data, meaning all of your hard earned progress will not be available on the Windows 10 version of the game. Yes, you’ll basically be starting from scratch. Now, in the off chance that you no longer have an Xbox One, you can log in to your account on any other Xbox One console for the same results.”

There have been several new additions to Killer Instinct for Season 3. Four new characters have been added for Season 3, including a couple of fan favorites(Kim Wu and Tusk), and a pair of guest appearances(Rash from Battletoads, and the Arbiter from Halo). In addition Season 3 will have three brand new stages, such as the “Arena of Judgment” stage which is based on the Sangheili homeworld from Halo 5: Guardians. On the technical side, KI: Season 3 will introduce cross-play between Windows 10 users and Xbox One users, and feature improved visuals with an all new lighting system and a re-introduced screen space color adjustments. Combined with Season 1 and 2, players will have access to a roster of 26 fighters and 20 stages total. You can check out some of the newest gameplay on PC below.
