<img src="http://www.trmk.org/images/mkhdk/mk_ak_cover.jpg" style="float:right;padding:2px" width="146" height="200"/>Appears the much delayed European release of Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection is finally arriving. According to <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-12-07-eu-playstation-store-update-7th-december">the list of updates to the store this week</a> it shows the game will finally be available for £7.19 or €8.99.
We're not sure if this version is the <a href="http://www.trmk.org/news/26039/mortal_kombat_arcade_kollection_patch_due_early_december.html">long awaited patched version</a> of the game, or if it's the same as the other release. If it's the newer patched version, that means that the US release is just around the corner <a href="http://www.trmk.org/news/26039/mortal_kombat_arcade_kollection_patch_due_early_december.html">as Ed said earlier</a>. Any readers in Europe got any info?
<strike><b>Update:</b> Reports from our <a href="http://www.trmk.org/forums/showthread.php/26167-Europe-Gets-Mortal-Kombat-Arcade-Kollection-Today?p=473813&viewfull=1#post473813">reader Yuri Helsen</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/Tim_Static/status/144463288242155521">Tim Static</a> indicate that European players are getting v1.02 of the Arcade Kollection which is NOT the patched version. It's possible that in order to distribute a patch across all PSN stores they had to first put the current version up for sale. We should still see the patch later this month.</strike>
<b>Update 6:30pm</b>: We got great news. We regret the previous error in reporting but we discovered that <b>the v1.02 European release of Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection is in FACT the patched version</b>. Europe has been playing with the new net code and other fixes since they got the game. <a href="http://www.trmk.org/news/26171/mortal_kombat_arcade_kollection_patch_coming_today.html">Check out our Patch notes for more details.</a>
