Update []: Well, it’s official — Atari has just dropped a new trailer for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection which reconfirms that Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero and Mortal Kombat: Special Forces are both coming to the compilation.
But we also got an additional little announcement — the Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 WaveNet Arcade model will also be included in the bundle. This is an unreleased community model of the sport that was only examined in Chicago and San Francisco utilizing a devoted T1 line linked to Midway’s headquarters in Chicago.
Well, darn, that’s very cool. This kollection appears to be like extraordinarily healthy. But no digital release date, still…
Original Story: Never accuse Digital Eclipse of not going all-in for its retro compilations. The studio’s next release, Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection, appears to be like to be no completely different, and a sighting and Gamescom confirms that the developer is going all in by including two of the least-popular MK video games.
In a video posted initially on Twitter (now X), and since shared on the Mortalkombatleaks subreddit (thanks Wario64!), a listing of video games out there on the assortment is proven off, with two more titles revealing themselves at the backside.
Those two video games? Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero and Mortal Kombat: Special Forces. Not two significantly beloved video games, if reminiscence serves, but every single sport deserves to be preserved, so we’re actually happy to see them here.
After all, it would not be a true historical past lesson or timeline if you merely lined all the cracks, and some people most likely like these video games.
Those unaware of these two Mortal Kombat spin-offs, let’s take you through them. Mythologies: Sub-Zero launched on the N64 in 1997 (shortly after the PS1 release)and focuses on the elder Sub-Zero Bi-Han, who is on a quest to discover Shinnok’s amulet. Acting as a prequel to Mortal Kombat 4, this is not a conventional preventing sport, it’s a side-scroller with a little gentle platforming but related controls to earlier MK video games.
Special Forces was a PlayStation unique that came out in 2000 and, equally to Sub-Zero, focuses on an particular person character in Jax and is a utterly completely different style, a top-down action-adventure sport. The sport suffered from development points and Mortal Kombat co-creator John Tobias, along with others at Midway, left part-way through development.
We’re sure to get an official announcement from Digital Eclipse or Atari fairly soon, but it would not look like these are the last additions to the sport, either.
We already know the sport is getting a full bodily release on Switch 2, which is good news, so we hope we’re getting an official release date, which hasn’t been announced despite quite a few leaks over the weeks. Physical variations of the sport are due to ship on twelfth December 2025 from Atari’s store.
