'Mortal Kombat' release updates: 'Kombat XL' PC Edition is happening

| Sep 01, 2016 05:21 AM EDT

Mortal Kombat X is a fighting video game developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

"Mortal Kombat's" all-inclusive edition is coming to PC as teased earlier by Co-creator ED Boon. The confirmation was made by the availability of the Enhanced Online Beta version, which could be played via Steam till Aug. 29 at 10 am PDT.

According to Game N Guide, "Mortal Kombat" all-inclusive Edition is the complete version of "Mortal Kombat X," which contains the base game plus all of the post-launch expansions. It had already come out earlier in March for PS4 and Xbox One, leaving PC players behind.

Earlier in the week, Boon had teased an image of a motherboard, alongside a coded message that turned out to spell "MKXLPC." He had also tweeted to fans, urging them to download the "Mortal Kombat XL" for PC beta.

"Mortal Kombat XL" will include "Kombat Pack 2," which contains newbie Triborg (think Cyrax, Robot Smoke, and Sektor rolled into one), Leather face from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, returning face Bo' Rai Cho, and the Alien xenomorph - the latter of which is considered the coolest of the lot. It also features previously released content such as Brazil Skin Pack, playable Goro, the Kold War Scorpion, the Kold War skin pack, and the Apocalypse skin pack.

What is more, Kombat pack 1 along with updates for the game to run on the GGPO netcode will not be left behind. According to Boon's latest poll, NeatherRealm is currently looking into GGPO netcode for online matches, which could help create a nag-free experience for" Mortal Kombat" players.

Players who anticipate for "Kombat XL" can go to "Mortal Kombat X" Steam page and sign up free-of-charge. This will help developers to "test improved online gameplay and more" as revealed in a former update.

Now that "Mortal Kombat X" PC fans have confirmed that their wish has been granted, they will still hold their horses because "Mortal Kombat XL's" release date is still unconfirmed. Even so, it is rumored that NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Interactive may end up spending their time to carefully work on "Mortal Kombat XL" so as to prevent errors from ruining the PC port like it did in the past.

So, players could end up waiting for quite some time. Watch the video below for more "Mortal Kombat XL" updates:
