Mortal Kombat Banned In Australia…Still
Last month we learned that Warner Bros. bloody return to Mortal Kombat’s roots was going to be banned in Australia. Despite Warner Bros. appeal to Australia’s rating boards, it looks like the game still won’t be hitting the land down under.
“We’re obviously extremely disappointed that the refused classification decision has been upheld by the Classification Review Board," said a Warner Bros. representative. "We want to thank the thousands of Mortal Kombat fans in Australia and around the world who have voiced their support during the appeal process."
Mortal Kombat is too hot for Australia, but do we have any Aussie readers who are planning on importing the game anyway?
