Since Phil Spencer wants to bring it back, it's certainly a possibility. Rather, since Microsoft bought out Rare, it owns the IP, regardless of what happened to the studio that rebooted it in 2013. You might be a bit confused as to who holds the IP now, what with Double Helix Games now being part of Amazon Game Studios, but Jeff Bezos doesn't own this classic fighter. To summarize, Killer Instinct went from being made by Rare to being published by Nintendo to serving as an Xbox One launch title. One of the most iconic characters of the Killer Instinct franchise, Fulgore made its original debut in the Killer Instinct (1994) arcade game as a playable character as well as the penultimate boss before Eyedol, and has remained playable throughout all the Killer Instinct games. However, only a year later, Double Helix Games went defunct, being folded into Amazon Game Studios. Fulgore is a highly-advanced heavy assault cyborg and the worlds first artificial soldier, created by Ultratech.

The 2013 reboot was a free-to-play Xbox One launch title garnering decent reviews with an average of 73% on Metacritic. Two years later, the sequel was unveiled, and then the series took a lengthy hiatus of 17 years before a reboot was launched by Double Helix Games. It eventually released on the SNES and Game Boy, published by Nintendo itself. Killer Instinct is an arcade fighting game from Rare that launched back in 1994, two years after Mortal Kombat.
