Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection

Digital Eclipse, Atari and Warner Bros. are all working together to bring gamers the Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection — a bundle consisting of 11 games from the franchise.

If you’re a diehard Mortal Kombat fan, you’ll probably want to keep an eye on this, as it includes some rare games from the PlayStation-era that I am guessing a lot of gamers didn’t get the chance to play back then.

Alongside the games included in one collection, there are also a host of new features  included, which we’ve outlined below.

Today’s reveal also included an announcement that a version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 that has not been playable anywhere 1997 called the WaveNet edition. This version of UMK3 was originally developed to support Midway’s WaveNet online matchmaking service for arcade machines, and was the only arcade release to feature Noob Saibot as a playable character. It has been “emulated and preserved” by Digital Eclipse, which adds another game that you probably didn’t play back then.

Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection’s physical version will be released on December 12, 2025, for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC. The digital version will include PS4, Xbox One, and Switch editions, though the date for that will be revealed at a later date.

In related news, Warner Bros. is focusing on “core” franchises in its gaming division, and this includes the Mortal Kombat franchise.

Only version I haven’t played is the WaveNet – really looking forward to seeing this in action! It is like my generations Polybius. Just a thing that was rumored and only existed in a limited market.
