How to change the combo assist setting in Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition

By default, combo assist is enabled in Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition. This setting allows you to pull off special moves without having to string together a string of button combinations in the correct order with proper timing.

To see how you can enable, disable, or customize this feature, you can take a look at this tutorial from Seeking Tech.

1. While you can enable or disable combo assist directly from the character selection screen (by pressing the X button if you are playing with a controller or fight stick with an Xbox layout), you won’t be able to customize it.

Therefore, we recommend that you head over to the Help & Options screen from the main menu instead.

2. Once you get there, select Controller.

3. On the next screen, scroll down to Combo Assist.

4. You will be able to change the combo Assist to Enabled, Disabled or Custom.

If you choose Custom, you need to open the Edit Settings screen (which can be done by pressing the A button on the Xbox controller). Afterwards, you can choose to enable or disable this assist feature for the following attack types:

  • Openers
  • Linkers
  • Enders
  • Ultras

Select the Save option once you are done to save your custom combo assist settings.

5. After changing the assistance feature, select Save to apply it in the game.
