Vita Mortal Kombat Shows Off Augmented Reality

Mortal Kombat on PlayStation Vita comes with all the DLC from the PlayStation 3 version including everyone’s favourite mass murderer, Kratos.

It also comes with the ability to decapitate Kano in the kitchen, eviscerate Liu Kang in the library and burn Baraka to death in billiard room. Yes, it’s the Mortal Kombat: Cluedo DLC!

Oh alright, it’s not, but it is a nifty augmented reality feature.  Looks fab.

Update: Warner Bros. has been in touch to let us know that this trailer isn’t showing off an AR feature. The purpose of the trailer is to demonstrate that, with PS Vita, you can play Mortal Kombat anywhere. Perhaps not as gimmicky as AR backdrops but ripping people’s spines out while waiting in the Post Office queue has always been a personal dream of mine… [cb]

  1. Just a heads up. There is no augmented reality support. It’s just a trailer showing that you can take MK everywhere you go.

    • You just killed the party.

    • Wow, talk about backfire marketing. I was probably going to buy this before I knew about the AR, but that locked the deal in.

      Now that it seems this was a ‘mistake’ I’m kinda dark at them for teasing a really cool feature they have no intention of including.

      They’ve also made a rod for their back… just watch as AR becomes the number one requested feature for a patch.
