Mortal Kombat 1’s highly-anticipated beta period has been confirmed: 18th-21st August.
The beta will be open to all players who have pre-ordered the fighting game on PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, regardless of what edition (standard, premium, or Kollector’s Edition) they’ve selected. It is not available for PC or Nintendo Switch players at this time.
