Let’s get nostalgic with the Mortal Kombat 30th anniversary trailer

Let’s get nostalgic and take a trip down memory lane with the Mortal Kombat 30^th anniversary trailer.

Yes, it’s really been 30 years. I can still remember to this day playing the original Mortal Kombat in the arcades. Fans were not only wowed by its extreme gore for its time, but it was a genuine rival to Capcom’s mammoth Street Fighter 2.

The original Mortal Kombat launched on October 8^th, 1992 and the series went on to sell over 79 million copies units worldwide. Over the years, Mortal Kombat has earned great success in the arcades and on home consoles. However, arcades are now a thing of the past for most regions in the world.
