Mortal Kombat X, a free-to-play fighting/card-battler hybrid will launch in April for iPad, iPhone, iPod touch and Android devices, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment have announced.

Developed by NetherRealm Studios, the same studio behind the upcoming console game, mobile gamers can look forward to a hybrid of fighting, card collecting, multiplayer team combat and more. All this plus the series’ iconic fatalities.

“NetherRealm Studios has created a Mortal Kombat X mobile experience that allows more players than ever before to play this over-the-top fighting game through their ever-present smartphones, tablets or other devices,” said Ed Boon, creative director, NetherRealm Studios. “What’s more, we’ve expanded the unique cross-connectivity feature that links the mobile and console versions of Mortal Kombat X, delivering unique rewards to all players for simply playing the mobile game.”

Players of the mobile game will be able to unlock content in the console and PC game, and vice versa, says Warner.
