Today, Warner Bros. Interactive Ent. announced that Mortal Kombat will ship for the Playstation Vita this spring. This is awesome news for fighting fans as MK will be joining a nice list of fighting titles. WB went on to say that this version will feature new gameplay features and content exclusively for the handheld. Nice!

“The NetherRealm team is committed to making sure that we follow up the success of 2011’s Mortal Kombat with an equally compelling experience on the PlayStation Vita,” said Ed Boon, Creative Director, NetherRealm Studios. “The original game content and new features we developed for the PlayStation Vita will provide gamers with the best fighting game experience available on the new mobile platform.” – Press

Although there hasn’t been word on what exactly the new features will be, it’s safe to assume that some of the features will incorporate the systems touch mechanics some how. It would be cool to see a new character added to the roster; I’m sure Kratos will make a cameo. Be sure to check back with us as we continue to cover this title!
