Iron Galaxy is looking to end March in a big way by releasing the latest character for Killer Instinct, the otherworldly ghost girl Hisako. To celebrate her arrival, a new trailer has been released to show the kind of pain that she's capable of inflicting.

As mentioned at PAX East, Hisako is mainly a defensive fighter. When she's not using her wall jumps and teleports to move around the arena, she's using her filled Wrath Meter to automatically counter opponents' attacks.

And it wouldn't be a Killer Instinct trailer without revealing what's next. This trailer ends with an oldie, but a goodie. It's the fiery Cinder, brandishing a whole new sinister look. Cinder will be April's new character and is expected to debut alongside the new Story additions that were detailed during the KI PAX East panel.

Hisako arrives today for Killer Instinct Ultra Edition owners, with Combo Breaker Edition owners set to get her on April 2.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
