Mortal Kombat fans were thrilled to receive the announcement of a new game. It’s been highly rumored and speculated what the next game would bring. While most of us assumed that we would receive Mortal Kombat 12, the folks over at NetherRealm Studios threw a slight curveball at us.

In particular, those that purchase the $109.99 Mortal Kombat 1 Premium Edition will come packed with 1,250 Dragon Krystals. Meanwhile, the Mortal Kombat Kollector’s Edition, for $249.99, will give you 2,700 Dragon Krystals. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait a bit longer before NetherRealm is ready to unveil just what players can spend their Dragon Krystals on and how much these in-game currency bundles might run players at launch.
