Send in the drones
Season 2 ofKiller Instinctgave us a golem, a sorcerer, and a Japanese ghost, among other characters. Who’s next? The CEO of UltraTech. ARIA may be an artificial intelligence, but that’s not about to stop her from getting physical. She can upload herself to one of three drones, each of which gives her a varied moveset while the remaining robots hover nearby until needed.
Here’s a brief description from Microsoft Studios creative director Adam Isgreen:

The drones can be called in for assists, but they are susceptible to damage and, crucially, ARIA’s total health is divided among them. Once all three drop, she’s done for the match.
Sounds like a fitting conclusion. I have to believe Iron Galaxy isn’t done withKIyet, though.
