Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Mortal Kombat X canceled

4.5
Warner has announced the cancelation of Mortal Kombat X for Xbox 360 and PS3, after two previous delays.

According to a community post, the company came to the “regrettable conclusion” the fighter wasn’t meeting the quality standards set by the current-gen versions, despite working “diligently” on the title.

“We were not able to get the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions to the quality expected of a Mortal Kombat game and are very sorry for not being able to deliver the products as originally planned,” reads the statement.

“If you pre-ordered Mortal Kombat X for PS3 or Xbox 360, please go to the retail location where you pre-ordered the game and you will receive a full refund.”

The last-gen versions were expected to release in April alongside PC, PS4 and Xbox One but were delayed into June.

The game was then delayed again into the fall, without a firm release date attached.

Since release, the fighting game has become the fastest-selling entry in the franchise to-date and has seen numerous character skin releases including Predator, Jason Voorhees, classic fighters and others.

Horizex Developers need to forget about previous gen consoles they are irrelevant these days and it's holding back the quality of the games imagine what some of these games could have been only focusing on next gen


There's nothing stopping them from outsourcing the port to another firm who will undertake all the effort. I don't remember Midway ever saying: screw the home ports, just play the arcade version!

They do that and they instantly lose 30%~45% of their profits.


Yes, not everyone can afford a next gen console. These days.
the prices just dropped for next gen consoles if there was ever a time it was affordable it's now and well worth your money
