As with all games getting released these days, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon will be getting a Premium Edition consisting of various extra features. Though it’s going to be released on PS2, Xbox and Wii, the PS2 version of the game will get the Premium treatment, offering an “arcade perfect” port of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, 60 minutes of video content including a “History of Fatalities” movie and a piece of animation cell cover art signed by Ed Boon, the co-creator of Mortal Kombat.

This Premium Edition will be available in four metallic cover variants, three of which feature two characters each - Sindel/Shao Kahn, Jonny Cage/Goro and Kano/Sonya - and one will simply be a metallic version of the standard box art.
