Digital Eclipse and Atari have released a major update for Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection, introducing the highly requested Krossplay feature alongside new online modes, technical enhancements, and bug fixes.

Krossplay allows players to compete against one another across PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and PC platforms in both Quick Play and Online Arcade modes. Combined with the previously released Room Code access system, it is now easy to connect with friends or join matches across the community. Please note that online play for Mortal Kombat 4 and cross-platform play for Mortal Kombat Trilogy are not supported on Nintendo Switch 1 due to technical limitations.

The update also introduces 2-on-2 Kombat online for the first time, enabling tag-team matches in Ultimate MK3 (Arcade), Ultimate MK3 (SNES), Mortal Kombat Trilogy (PS1), and Mortal Kombat 4 (Arcade). 

Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support is also now available as a user-selectable option on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One X|S, Nintendo Switch 2 (handheld mode) and PC. This allows gameplay to sync more closely with original arcade frame rates, delivering a more authentic experience.

Further fixes and quality-of-life improvements include:

• Players can now select their level before an online match across all supported games
• Fixed an issue where the minimum connection strength option for rooms was not functioning properly
• Fixed an issue where Kombat Kard replays could be accidentally erased if unfavorited
• Updated localization for various languages
• Various bug fixes and small improvements
