Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition Slays Retailers

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition is now available at retailers in North America on the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360. Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition offers a content-rich version of 2011’s acclaimed Mortal Kombat, which has sold more than three million units worldwide and was named 2011’s Fighting Game of the Year by Game Informer Magazine, Spike TV Video Game Awards and the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences.

Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition delivers the critically acclaimed game, all previously released downloadable content (DLC), plus digital downloads of the 2011 release of Mortal Kombat: Songs Inspired by the Warriors album with a bonus track, and the classic 1995 Mortal Kombat film on the PlayStation Store or Zune Video Marketplace on Xbox LIVE. The DLC includes fan-favorite warriors Skarlet, Kenshi and Rain, as well as the infamous dream stalker Freddy Krueger. The game also offers 15 Klassic Skins and three Klassic Fatalities (Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Reptile). Mortal Kombat: Songs Inspired by the Warriors is a collection of electronic music inspired by the game and is executive produced by JFK (of the DJ/ production duo MSTRKRFT and Death From Above 1979) and includes the popular track Reptile by the Grammy awarding winning artist Skrillex.

“Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition is a result of the team’s hard work and a culmination of all the success the Mortal Kombat franchise achieved last year,” said Ed Boon, Creative Director, NetherRealm Studios. “We are extremely appreciative of our fans and pleased to deliver this complete experience in one package.”

The 2011 release of Mortal Kombat was a triumphant return to the game’s original mature presentation offering over-the-top fatalities and cringe-worthy X-ray moves. Going back to a 2D fighting plane, this latest iteration in the franchise introduced a number of new gameplay features including Tag Team, Challenge Tower, and a deep story mode. Players can choose from an extensive lineup of the game’s iconic warriors and challenge their friends in traditional 1 vs. 1 matches, or take on several players in the innovative online King of the Hill mode.
