In fact, it is the PlayStation port specifically that will be included with this kollection. While the digital version of Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is expected in…

TOASTY! The man behind Mortal Kombat’s most iconic music tracks has announced his retirement from the team after more than three decades. Dan Forden served as one of the original four team members who created the original Mortal Kombat in 1992 alongside Ed Boon, John Tobias and John Vogel. Its unique digitised graphics and gruesome finishing moves aside, a huge part of Mortal Kombat’s appeal came from its catchy soundtrack and crispy sound effects. Game after game he continued to perfect his craft, and although others eventually joined the sound development team his influence remained front and centre. Wednesday was…

Cold, calculating and armed with a technologically advanced freeze gun, Leonard Snart aka Captain Cold has plans to stop The Flash and his allies in their tracks. Approaching jobs with an utter lack of emotion, Cold is surprisingly empathetic toward his younger sister who he will do anything to protect. However upon learning of her brutal murder as well as that of the Rogues by the Regime, Snart now seeks ultimate vengeance — and will gladly use the Society to achieve it.

Following their brief interview, Ed surprises the team with a shock announcement: they have been given exclusive rights to reveal Firestorm, the next fighter to join the Injustice 2 roster (skip to 5:33 for gameplay). Ronnie Raymond and Jason Rusch are worlds apart: Ronnie is a handsome athlete who adores attention, while Jason is a gifted scientist who loves nothing more than working alone.

Kombat will live in Injustice 2 beginning next month when Lin Kuei veteran Sub-Zero joins the fray as part of the title’s Fighter Pack 1 DLC.

Sub-Zero is a lethal cryomancer and leader of the reformed Lin Kuei clan. When Sub-Zero was younger, the Lin Kuei were corrupted and destroyed from within, staining their honor.
