Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is scheduled for release on September 30 — at least according to a temporary listing that appeared on the Xbox App over the weekend.
While the store page currently displays a placeholder date of December 31, 2025 (as seen early this morning), players briefly glimpsed conflicting dates yesterday—either September 29 or September 30, likely reflecting regional timezone differences.
As highlighted by Reddit discussions, the official announcement will likely occur during Evo weekend—the fighting game community's premier annual event—taking place August 1 in Las Vegas. The early date reveal appears to have been an accidental preview before reverting to standby status.
Last month's Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection details confirmed online multiplayer with rollback netcode across all included arcade and console classics, along with promises of additional undisclosed features.
The comprehensive package will also serve as an interactive franchise retrospective, showcasing developer interviews and archival materials tracing Mortal Kombat's cultural impact.
"Digital Eclipse's signature documentary approach chronicles how Mortal Kombat revolutionized gaming perceptions," states an official studio description. "Through its groundbreaking use of digitized actors in exaggerated martial arts combat, the series captivated players, courted controversy, and spawned a thirty-year legacy. Exclusive interviews with creators Ed Boon, John Tobias, John Vogel, and Dan Forden accompany rare concept sketches, vintage promotional assets, and historical footage."
