The release date for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection has seemingly leaked thanks to the Xbox mobile app, as keen-eyed fans pointed out that the anticipated compilation could come out on September 29. As of this writing, developer Digital Eclipse has not confirmed when Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection will hit store shelves, other than its previously listed 2025 release window.
Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection was first revealed during the June 4 State of Play broadcast, which highlighted several titles coming to PlayStation platforms. Digital Eclipse and Atari later confirmed that the compilation of classic Mortal Kombat titles would also be available on all major platforms, including the recently released Nintendo Switch 2. Multiple versions of titles like Mortal Kombat 2 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, including the arcade and console ports, will be part of the compilation. However, more classic Mortal Kombat titles will be revealed by Digital Eclipse closer to the Legacy Kollection's launch.
Mortal Kombat 2 Movie Trailer Shows a Surprising Change for WB's Sequel
Mortal Kombat 2's new trailer suggests a major shift for the upcoming sequel that might be welcome news for longtime fans of the iconic franchise.
While some questions surrounding Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection still linger, the game's release date may have accidentally been revealed by a surprising source. According to a thread on the GamingLeaksAndRumors subreddit by Reddit user ByrdOfMemes, Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection could arrive either on Monday, September 29, or Tuesday, September 30, depending on individual time zones. The OP replied with a screenshot seemingly taken from the Xbox mobile app, which showed September 29 as the compilation's supposed release date. The Best War Games was able to verify this claim via the iOS version of the Xbox mobile app, with a screenshot taken at 9:38 PM Central on July 27. At the time of writing, the supposed September 29 release date for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection was still listed on the app.
Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection Could Arrive In Late September
- Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection could launch on September 29 or 30, depending on time zones.
- The date was accidentally leaked by the Xbox mobile app's listing for the compilation.
- However, no release dates were shown on Xbox's desktop site.
- Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection will officially launch sometime in 2025.
However, the desktop version of the Xbox store does not have any precise release date information. While the release date would align with the 2025 window that Digital Eclipse previously mentioned, all rumors must be taken with a fine grain of salt. But, between the rumored July Nintendo Direct and the upcoming Evo 2025 fighting game championships taking place August 1-3 in Las Vegas, the release date for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection could be confirmed over the next few days.
With playable fan favorites like Scorpion and Johnny Cage, and obscure combatants such as Shinnok, Drahmin, and Frost, Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection will feature a robust roster for players to peruse. Only time will tell when Digital Eclipse will officially confirm when Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection will be available.
