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.

The good people over at SMS Power have managed to secure the loose EPROMs of an unreleased Game Gear title called BreakThru! and have now dumped the game and preserved it digitally.
BreakThru! was originally released on other systems such as PC, SNES, Game Boy in 1994 and Saturn and Playstation later in 1995. The game is infamous for being endorsed by Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov. This Game Gear version was completed but never released for unknown reasons.
You can download the ROM file from SMS Power’s page on the title. SMS Power have also released a patched version that is more compatible with different hardware. The ROM file can be played on real hardware using something like an Everdrive cartridge. Alternatively the game can be played under emulation.
