I'm generally against studios that charge for pre-order bonuses released as DLC down the road as I feel like it's yet another way they nickel and dime customers...BUT, Mortal Kombat was packed with so much content from the start, I think this is one case where you could make an exception. So many characters already have alternates from the story mode which you can unlock and you already have so much content to play for from the outset, that I can't really say I mind them charging an extra $5 for the classic costumes and fatalities given how much they've already poured into the core game. Plus it's $5 for everything which is nothing compared to the massive rip-off Capcom tried to charge folks for the SFIV alternates. What was it, like $25 or something, get real.

Netherrealm outdid themselves with MK9, and as such, I think this is one situation where the studio should be rewarded for all of their hard work as the game was one of the rare cases today where I felt like "damn, this is actually worth more than $60". Plus if you were a smart shopper, you'd know that MK9 could have and still can be had for $40 anyway. In fact I think Toys R Us had it for like $30 at one point as well.

Sweet but what about those who already have some of the costumes will we have to download them again the pack??

Edit: @ bleow Ahh ok any word on a release date??

xxxAnubisxxx5484d ago

They will all be automatically downloaded, I'm sure. If you already own some of them, it will not cause a problem.

DirtyLary5484d ago (Edited 5484d ago )

Everyone already has the data.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

Mortal Kombat: Flawless Victory Announced

A new book detailing the artwork of the franchise has been announced

robtion305d ago

Let me fix this title to something less click baity for you:

New Book: Mortal Kombat: Flawless Victory Announced.

Garethvk305d ago (Edited 305d ago )

The description clearly says what it is. It is not like people have to click to the site. They just have to read.

robtion305d ago

Sure they don't have to go to the site but to get to the description they already have to have clicked on it. Thus the term 'click bait'.

Rebel_Scum305d ago (Edited 305d ago )

If its a book say its a book in the article title. Everyone’s gonna think this is a new game and get annoyed reading your description.

Garethvk305d ago (Edited 305d ago )

The Mods had no issues with the title.
The first line under the image says new book and you can see it in the preview windows without even having to click to read the description.

It also says a Visual History on the image.

Rebel_Scum305d ago

On desktop and mobile the text a visual history is not visible in the thumbnail on the homepage.

I grew up on this stuff. Adding it to the art collection!

I do hope the next MK iteration goes back to the core of what made these characters appeal in the first place. A few of them lost their edge - I think I've had enough with some of the auntie designs 😂
