We talked a few weeks ago about Mortal Kombat making its way to Vita, but we didn’t have much in the way of details. Thanks to IGN, however, we are now able to delve a little more deeply into what exactly Vita owners can expect from this return to the bloody tournament.

Mortal Kombat on the Vita is based on 2011’s PS3 reboot of the franchise, and will contain all four of the DLC characters as well as Kratos. The Vita version will also contain all DLC outfits and fatalities. The game will play much in the same way as the PS3 version, with a couple of Vita-specific tweaks. For one, you can tap the special meter to instantly unleash a special attack, or use the screen to perform fatalities in lieu of the touchpad. In some of the game’s 150 new missions, you may find yourself swiping the screen to wipe away blood or knocking missiles down with a tap.

The game also includes a few new maps that don’t address the Vita controls – they were developed for the console version but weren’t polished in time for release. Overall, this version of Mortal Kombat is essentially a GOTY repackaging of 2011’s title, with more features, more characters and more levels.

Are you stoked on Vita Mortal Kombat?
