Mortal Kombat X to be released on April 15th 2015 and includes playable Goro if you pre-order the game

By Keith MitchellSeptember 5, 2014

Netherrealm Studio’s has just announced that Mortal Kombat X will be released on April 14th, 2015. On top of the release date they also announced that if you pre-order Mortal Kombat X that you’ll also snag Goro as an exclusive character for the game. No word if he’ll be a playable character if you don’t pre-order the game but our money is betting that he will be just at a later date.
