Banjo-Kazooie Appear on Rare Christmas Card, Killer Instinct 3 Hinted At

Microsoft and Rare have kept a shroud over Banjo-Kazooie since its initial showing last year. Well after being covered in darkness for over a year, a new image of Banjo-Kazooie has surfaced on the Rare Christmas Card.

It may not be a new screenshot, but it does hint at the art style Rare will be using in the next Banjo-Kazooie title. Hopefully, having Banjo on this year’s Christmas card means that the game will be arriving on the Xbox 360 sometime next year.

If you look closely at the card itself, you’ll notice that one of the stockings clearly hints at Killer Instinct 3. However, Rare has also hinted at Killer Instinct 3 in Grabbed by the Ghoulies, which released on the Xbox. Will we ever see another installment of Killer Instinct? That still remains to be seen. But we can be sure that Banjo-Kazooie will be making its way onto the Xbox 360, hopefully, during 2008.
