Mortal Kombat 3

Mortal Kombat 3 is a fighting game developed and published by Midway, the third main entry in the franchise and a home console port of the 1995 arcade original. The game introduces multi-level playfields, the Run button, Dial-A-Combo attacks, and new types of finishing moves, with the storyline refocusing on Shao Kahn’s invasion of Earthrealm rather than the tournament structure of previous games.

The database catalogues three PAL variants, all UK-only Original releases dated 15 November 1995. What makes this title particularly interesting from a packaging standpoint is the variety of case formats represented: Cardboard, Full Jewel PAL, and Standard CD Jewel, all for the same serial. All three contain a single English-language disc and carry no hologram. No loose paperwork or bundled demos are documented.

The three distinct case formats for a single UK release make Mortal Kombat 3 one of the more physically varied entries in the early PAL PlayStation catalogue.
