Release Date April 2011

Platforms Xbox 360, Playstation 3

* The Playstation 3 version will feature Stereoscopic 3D compatability.



Storyline
"After centuries of Mortal Kombat, Emperor Shao Kahn has finally defeated Raiden and his allies. Faced with extinction, Raiden has one last chance to save Earthrealm. To undo the Emperor's victory, he must strike Shao Kahn where he is most vulnerable...The Past."

This installment will essentially be a retelling of the events from Mortal Kombat 1 to Mortal Kombat 3.

* It has also been revealed that the Story Mode will be the deepest of any fighting game ever. The structure of Story-Mode is said to be in the vain of MK vs DCU. It's length is to be longer than both Story Modes combined in MK vs DCU.

* Character Endings are to be in a stylized graphic novel inspired animated presentation. Not quite FMV rendered but definitely not static pictures.

I'm looking forward to revisiting old battles from the other Mortal Kombats but MK made a bad move with that DC vs MK, so I'm a little skeptical about copping this.
