How to get MK1 Beta Code

Mortal Kombat's fatalities captured my attention as a kid, and it is still a fighting series I enjoy to this day. With Mortal Kombat 1's upcoming release, I've been dying to get into the game and play it. As it turns out, Mortal Kombat 1 will hold a beta, but it requires a code. Here's how to get a beta code for the game.

How to get a Mortal Kombat 1 Beta Code

There are only two ways to get a Beta Code for Mortal Kombat 1. The first and easiest way is to pre-order the game. Pre-ordering Mortal Kombat 1 physically will give you a beta code that you must link to your WB Account. This will either be attached to the receipt or sent via email. Those who pre-ordered the game digitally do not need a beta code and will not get one, as they automatically get access to the Mortal Kombat 1 Beta when it begins.

The second method to get a Mortal Kombat 1 Beta Code is for another person to give one to you. This does rely on another person, who most likely will want to use the Mortal Kombat 1 Beta Code themselves. Do not rely on this plan if you want to participate in the beta, as there is no guarantee that someone will give you a code.

If you get a beta code and gain access to the Mortal Kombat 1 Beta, you are free to play the game early. The beta will let you play the Tower and online 1v1 game modes. An internet connection is required for the beta, and an Xbox Live or PlayStation Plus membership is to play online.
