Following yesterday’s announcement from the powers-that-be at Xbox, a whole heap of new titles have been added to the library if you are a subscriber to Game Pass Ultimate. Now aside from the list published yesterday, an eagle-eyed fan has spotted something new on one of the Microsoft Store’s banners. Is Mortal Kombat 1 a surprise new addition to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate?

Over on the Xbox Game Pass subreddit today, user ‘nicksuperdx’ shared the post showing that he had spied the title on a new banner on the Microsoft Store. Currently the game is showing available to buy, with a large discount as part of the fighter sale currently running, but there is no sign that it will be added to the Game Pass Ultimate library, so take this with a grain of salt for now. Microsoft do seem to be full of surprises – both good and bad – at the moment, so all we can say is watch this space!
The recent addition of new games to the Game Pass library has been part of a huge overhaul to the whole Game Pass system; you can read all about that here. Unfortunately, the 50% price hike to Game Pass ultimate has lead to a lot of controversy over the past 24 hours, with reports of people cancelling their subscriptions in droves. Our editor-in-chief Jon wrote about the changes yesterday, you can check out his thoughts here.
We reviewed Mortal Kombat 1 when it was released, and it scored a solid 8.8, with our reviewer saying “Mortal Kombat 1 is one hell of a fighting game, one that I can see myself putting in as many hours as Mortal Kombat 11, if not more, and I’m really excited about its future.” You can read the full review here.
Would you be excited if Mortal Kombat 1 came to the Game Pass Ultimate library? Do you even still have a subscription to Game Pass Ultimate?! Join the discussions over at the XboxEra Community Forum, or in our Discord server and let us know.
