That seems to be the right price point. Considering it's a F2P game I'd imagine that they'll be pretty aggressive at releasing new characters on a regular basis.

LOL, I guess we really should have known that the roster would be that limited given how slow they've been at showing actual characters. The original Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat had a dozen characters back more than 20 years ago upon release. Last gen fighters (MK4, SF4, etc.) have pushed out what, maybe 20ish at least?
The actual KI release is with 6 fighters, and the other two are planned 4-5 months later apparently. And then a "Season 2" another year later and "just repeat the whole thing."
So after more than a year and half after release, their hope/plan is to have 12-16 fighters in total. Color me disappointed
; but I guess it looks pretty from the hands on time I had with it.
