The final instalment in the Mortal Kombat series for current-gen consoles has been confirmed by Midway to arrive in the UK on October 27. As was revealed several months back, the game will not be coming out for the Xbox in Europe - for this version you'll have to source an import from the US.

Armageddon features the most complete roster ever, including almost every character from the MK universe - you'll even be able to create your own character and Fatality. Game modes include a brand new Konquest mode, which has been expanded to be a full-blown adventure with a deep story and a variety of gameplay, plus a revamped online mode.

Look out for a review towards the end of the month.
