Warner Bros and NetherRealm Studios unveiled the Mortal Kombat 1 Definitive Edition, bundling all DLC characters and movie skins, available now. Despite 5 million copies sold, this figure pales compared to previous Mortal Kombat titles, raising concerns about the game's performance. The release follows a Warner Bros report showing a 48% revenue drop in the gaming sector, linked to poor performance from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Ed Boonâs previous commitment to supporting the game adds to fan frustration over its seemingly premature conclusion alongside shifting franchise dynamics.
This definitive edition, which will more than likely be the final version of the game, comes only two years after its release back in 2023.
While Mortal Kombat 1's 5 million sales figure sounds wonderful, Mortal Kombat X sold more than 12 million copies in its life, while Mortal Kombat 11 - the best selling MK ever - broke the 15 million sales milestone.
Warner Bros highlighted a 48% decrease in revenue from its gaming department compared to last year, attributed to last year's Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
For a portion of fans, this definitive edition marks an end to a short life for Mortal Kombat 1, raising concerns about the franchise's future.
