Those who pre-ordered NetherRealm Studios’ Mortal Kombat 1 can look forward to the upcoming beta this weekend. It runs from August 18th to August 21st for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S (not for PC or Nintendo Switch). A new trailer is available, showcasing some of the content players can look forward to.
