Mortal Kombat 1 seemingly getting a PS4 version

Mortal Kombat 1 is now mere days away, and while the game has been pitched and shown off as a current-gen exclusive title, it seems as though NetherRealm have plans to backport the game to last-gen consoles. According to promotional material published by GameStop, Mortal Kombat 1 will at the very least also be coming to PlayStation 4.

As spotted by Twitter user Foulness_Arisen, the promotional boards located within physical GameStop shops advertising the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 features a banner listing its available platforms as being both PlayStation 5 as well as PS4.

Considering the fact that the game is coming to the Nintendo Switch, there is certainly no reason as to why last-gen systems wouldn't be able to run the game. Even so, if this ends up being the case, the fact that it has never been officially stated that MK1 is coming to PS4/Xbox One is somewhat disingenuous.

While unlikely, it is possible that this is a simple misprint on the part of the game’s marketing department. We will have to wait and see what the team at NetherRealm/WB Games have to say in the days leading up to / following the release of Mortal Kombat 1.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
