Thursday, June 5th, 2025

A new Mortal Kombat collection has been revealed and with it comes a host of different Mortal Kombat ports that come from different SEGA systems.

Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection is being developed by Digital Eclipse in the same style as their Gold Master series and collections like Atari 50. This means it includes a virtual timeline that presents the history of the franchise like an interactive documentary – complete with interviews, behind-the-scenes material, artwork and more.

The collection largely focuses on earlier Mortal Kombat entries. Every game and variant from the original Mortal Kombat to Mortal Kombat 4 is represented, plus a selection of console ports. Interesting to SEGA fans is the inclusion of the Mega Drive and Game Gear ports of the original Mortal Kombat, the Mega Drive and 32X ports of Mortal Kombat 2, and the Mega Drive port of Mortal Kombat 3.

The complete list of playable games in the collection is:

– Mortal Kombat – 1992: Arcade, SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, Game Gear
– Mortal Kombat II -1993: Arcade, SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, 32X
– Mortal Kombat 3 – 1995: Arcade, SNES, Genesis
– Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 – 1995: Arcade, SNES
– Mortal Kombat 4 – 1997: Arcade
– Mortal Kombat Advance – 2001: Game Boy Advance
– Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance – 2002: Game Boy Advance
– Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition – 2003: Game Boy Advance

Digital Eclipse are also teasing further additions to the collection that will be revealed at a later date. The collection will also feature rollback netcode to make the online multiplayer nice and responsive. It is currently unclear which titles will support rollback netcode.

Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection launches later in 2025 on PC, Switch, Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4 and PS5. The game is being published by Warner Bros Entertainment in conjuction with Atari. It is being developed by Digital Eclipse in conjuction with NetherRealm Studios.

Wednesday, May 7th, 2025

Limited Run Games have revealed they are publishing the new Mega Drive shoot em up Earthion, which has been developed by Makoto Wada and Yuza Koshiro at Ancient. Currently the game is only available for PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Switch and Xbox Series X|S, but with the game being developed on real Mega Drive hardware I think it’s safe to say a proper Mega Drive version is on the cards at some point in the future.

You can wishlist the game on Steam which currently lists a “coming soon” release date.

An announcement trailer has also gone live which you can view via the embed below:

Earthion will feature 8 stages of Mega Drive shmup action and a soundtrack composed by Yuzo Koshiro of Streets of Rage fame.

Saturn Puyo Puyo Spin-Off ‘Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon’ Now Translated to English by Fans | Fan Scene

Wednesday, May 7th, 2025

The SEGA Saturn Puyo Puyo dungeon crawler spin-off Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon has now been translated into English and is available to download from Romhack.ing.

Originally released for the Saturn in 1998 and in Japan only, this roguelike action RPG is now fully playable in English and with a new English title of Exhilarating Puyo Puyo Dungeon. The project was lead by brandnewscooby.

Patching Saturn games requires a BIN/CUE rip of the original Saturn game, the patch file which you can download from Romhack.ing, and patching software like SEGA Saturn Patcher. The patch file needs to be applied to the CUE file to work.

Congratulations to brandnewscooby for gifting the Saturn community access to another previously Japan exclusive Saturn game and making it more accessible to English speaking audiences.
