Who It's For

The Arcade1Up Mortal Kombat II Deluxe appeals to retro gamers, families, and collectors who want an authentic arcade cabinet without the footprint of a full-sized machine; its mix of Mortal Kombat classics and other titles makes it great for casual play sessions, local multiplayer nights, and nostalgic display.
