The Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is set to launch in multiple physical editions for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and the original Switch. This includes a Day 1 Edition, a Deluxe Edition featuring a steelbook case and various additional items, and a limited-time Kollector`s Edition. Given the series` enduring popularity, the collectible-rich Deluxe Edition is expected to sell out quickly before its December 12 release.
Pre-orders for the Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection are available through various retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Atari, and Limited Run Games. Interestingly, the Nintendo Switch 2 versions are priced $10 higher than their PS5 and standard Nintendo Switch counterparts. A significant advantage for collectors is that, unlike most third-party titles for Nintendo`s new console, this collection includes all games directly on the Game Card, not just a download key, making it a truly physical release for Switch 2.
The physical editions of Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection were jointly unveiled by Warner Bros. Interactive, Atari, and Digital Eclipse at Evo 2025. While the Kollection will also be available digitally on PC and Xbox, physical copies for these platforms are exclusively offered via Limited Run Games and Atari.
