The official confirmation has arrived for Mortal Kombat 1’s Premium Edition players, granting them a sweet five-day head start. If you’ve pre-ordered this premium version, you’re in for a treat. You’ll have the advantage of five additional days to sharpen your skills before the game’s official launch on September 19, 2023, for Nintendo Switch, PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
For those lucky Premium Edition holders, the action begins at 10 am PDT (1 pm ET / 6 pm UK time) on September 14. Until now, there were only hints and whispers about an early access period, mainly through customer service representatives. However, the recent updates on Steam and Xbox’s online store listings have confirmed what was previously mere speculation.
