In a press release the rest of the world will get tomorrow, publisher Midway has announced four different Premium Packs for the PS2 version of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. Retailing at $49.95, three of the higher-end limited editions of the game will ship with different embossed, metallic covers that feature paired characters Sindel and Shao Kahn; Kano and Sonya; and Johnny Cage and Goro. The fourth edition's box art will be identical to that of the "regular" edition of the game (the MK logo), but metallic.
While the boxes are different,all fourversions appear to feature the same "kontent:" A 60-minute bonus DVD with a History of Fatalities movie and new videos for more than 50 characters, an animation cell of the cover art autographed by creator Ed Boon and an arcade-perfect version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.
Arriving in stores Oct. 9, Armageddon will effectively end the franchise on current-gen consoles, bringing together every single MK character, no matter how obscure, for one last, apocalyptic throwdown. Armageddon will also be the first MK to feature Create-a-Fighter and Create-a-Fatality modes, as well as a new Konquest mode with fast brawling action in the vein of MK: Shaolin Monks.
