Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has revealed information on the special editions and retail exclusives for the upcoming Mortal Kombat, as well as details on Kratos (God of War) appearance in the game. Here’s the skinny on the Kollector’s and Tournament editions:
- The Kollector’s Edition featuring the award-winning Mortal Kombat game, Sub-Zero and Scorpion figurines, a collectible art book, downloadable content that includes an exclusive Mortal Kombat Klassic costume skin and avatar costumes.
- The Tournament Edition featuring the award-winning Mortal Kombat game, a portable fight stick, and downloadable content that includes an exclusive Mortal Kombat Klassic costume skin and avatar costumes. The number of tournament editions is very limited with only 20,000 copies available in North America.
And because I know how much you guys love retail exclusives, here’s what you can snag at GameStop, Best Buy and Amazon:
- Gamestop: Customers who pre-order their copy of Mortal Kombat at Gamestop will get exclusive access to the Klassic Scorpion Playable Character Skin and the original Scorpion Fatality.
- Best Buy: Customers who pre-order their copy of Mortal Kombat at Best Buy will get exclusive access to the Klassic Sub-Zero Playable Character Skin and the original Sub-Zero Fatality.
- Amazon: Customers who pre-order their copy of Mortal Kombat on Amazon.com will get exclusive access to the Klassic Reptile Playable Character Skin and the original Reptile Fatality.
Last, but definitely not least, is a bit of information on Kratos appearing exclusively in the Playstation 3 version of Mortal Kombat:
Mortal Kombat will feature Kratos as a playable character, as well as be in Stereoscopic 3-D exclusively in the PS3 version. The brutal warrior from the acclaimed God of War franchise will have his own customized move set, fatality, and fighting arena, available to all original purchasers when Mortal Kombat hits stores.
All of this sounds very awesome. I’m definitely high on the PS3 version and I’d probably buy it from Best Buy for classic Sub-Zero. How about you? What permutation of Mortal Kombat interests you the most? Name your preferred platform and retail exclusive (please)!
i'll probably get the tournament edition just because i've been dying to get my hands on a fight stick for the PS3. I'll probably pre-order it with Best Buy as well.
Kratos fits Mortal Kombat perfectly so it you have a PS3 you should get that version.
Fore!!!
Lol it wont happen here. Im an Xboxer but Kratos is a superb fit for MK.
You're an Xboxer? What weight class were you in and who did you fight? ;)
Now Im in the slim class but I fought 2 Xboxes to get here lol.
I would be going to GS I love the Scorpion man thing guy person.
It's interesting that a lot of game journalists are hating on WBIE making retailer-exclusive fatalities. What do you think? Is that taking it too far?
Slightly, only because they will have it be DLC in the future.
I don't like it either. So if you want these fatalities you'll have to buy the game from Gamestop or buy it as additional DLC later.
