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.

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.
Original Ecco the Dolphin designer Ed Annunziata has revealed that remasters of the original Ecco game and its sequel The Tides of Time are currently in development. In addition to this news, Annunziata has also revealed a new entry in the series will be developed by the original Ecco team once work on the remasters has wrapped up.
It is currently unclear if Annunziata is working with SEGA to produce these new Ecco games, or whether Annunziata has purchased the Ecco license from SEGA.
The original Ecco the Dolphin was released on the Mega Drive in 1992 and developed by Novotrade. Ed Annunziata worked as the designer, while László Szenttornyai directed the game. The same team would also develop Ecco: The Tides of Time which originally released for Mega Drive in 1994. The last new Ecco game was Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future, developed by Appaloosa Interactive and released for the Dreamcast in 2000.
Back in February 2025 Evercade released a double pack of the indie Mega Drive games Metal Dragon and Life on Mars: Genesis. These 2 games were both developed by Kai Magazine Software and are fairly new aftermarket Mega Drive titles. In our latest video we review this latest offering from Evercade and also discuss the Evercade consoles themselves:
A new homebrew port of The Ultimate Doom that includes episode 4, as well as a complete port of Doom II and select maps from TNT Evilution have been compiled together as Doom CD32X Fusion and programmed by the talented duo of Vic and ChillyWilly from the Doom World forums. The pair were previously responsible for Doom 32X Ressurection.
This new port makes use of the Mega Drive, Mega-CD and 32X to offer the best playing version of Doom available for the system and can run on real hardware as well as the Ares emulator. The Mega-CD also gives the game PCM audio for enhanced music.
Detailed instructions on how to compile a working copy of the game for Mega Drive, Mega-CD and 32X owners can be found on the game’s forum entry at Doom World. You also need to source some files from a real copy of Doom 1&2 in order to compile the necessary ROM file.
The Doom World entry on Doom CD32X Fusion also details every single addition and feature this project has over the previously released Doom 32X Resurrection homebrew project. Doom 32X Resurrection was made to enhance the 32X port of Doom with a large variety of improvements and is also available to download here.
The holy grail of lost Mega Drive media has been discovered and was even playable at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024. A build of 1995’s Garfield: Caught in the Act – The Lost Levels has finally been unearthed after 29 years.
Garfield: The Lost Levels was a SEGA Channel exclusive version of Garfield: Caught in the Act that features 2 exclusive stages called Bonehead the Barbarian and Slobbin’ Hood. It is further enhanced with the Alien Landscape stage which was only made available via the SEGA PC release of Garfield: Caught in the Act that released in 1996.
An attendee at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024 called PZTunleaded has recorded 43 minutes of off-screen footage of the recently discovered build of Garfield: The Lost Levels and shared it on their YouTube channel. You can watch this footage via the embed below:
While PZTunleaded is not the owner of the build, the video description does mention that the general public will be able to play this build “sooner or later” which suggests the owner is going to release the ROM dump soon.
