Mortal Kombat II

A Champion Emerges Enter Shaun Nicholson from 3DO HD. In September 2023 he began showcasing a Mortal Kombat II conversion for 3DO on his YouTube channel. Progress updates revealed stunning character models and levels. Finally, in January 2025, Shaun released a breathtakingly good Beta version and in June 2025 released the full version. While not totally arcade-perfect, it’s an amazing 3DO exclusive, a unique hybrid experience that’s immensely enjoyable. The Ultimate Port? This version is visually stunning, and in my opinion the best-looking home console port of MKII to date. The characters are massive and vibrant, the special moves are all present, and the backgrounds feature gorgeous, multi-layered parallax scrolling. New 3DO-exclusive levels and optional background scenes (visible via the Arena Tour menu) add to the package, and we even have Trip and others popping up to give us a Toasty! A Victorious Finishing move Shaun has finally completed the full version of MK2 on 3DO and has now added Fatalities, Friendships, and bespoke Babalities. This version is now available at the link below. In my opinion, this is the most impressive homebrew game I’ve ever seen on the 3DO. Arcade purists will have major quibbles, but the dedication and skill of this small team are undeniable. The SNES version has finally been dethroned.
