AU: Mortal Kombat Heading Back to the Classification Board

Following the birth of the new R18+ rating for video games in Australia Warner Bros. has revealed plans to seek classification for Mortal Kombat: Komplete Edition.

“Warner Bros Entertainment Australia will be submitting the Mortal Kombat: Komplete Edition for classification under the new R18+ classification category,” read a statement.

Mortal Kombat: Komplete Edition features the 2011 game plus all downloadable content released for the title in one bundle.

Mortal Kombat was refused classification in February 2011 after falling foul of the ratings guidelines for the MA15+ category; the highest rating for video games available at the time. A subsequent appeal was denied the following month.

Since the category became active on January 1 this year, one video game has been rated R18+. Australia’s first R18+ video game is Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge for Wii U.
