When Mortal Kombat launched nearly 30 years ago, I never dreamed it would grow into the franchise it is today with more than 73 million games sold. We have some of the most passionate fans in the world and we appreciate the support they have shown us over the years.
As Mortal Kombat 11 passes 12 million games sold & pushes the MK franchise over 73 million console games…
…we wanted to send a massive THANK YOU to all the support Mortal Kombat fans have given us over the years. It means EVERYTHING to us. ❤️https://t.co/zbedUjt7Ip pic.twitter.com/nENSANWXqL
