Mortal Kombat Competition Edition SNES CGC 7.0 CIB – Super Nintendo 1993

Few games defined the early identity of fighting games the way Mortal Kombat did.

 

Released during the golden era of arcade-to-home transitions, this Competition Edition of Mortal Kombat for Super Nintendo represents a unique variation of one of the most controversial and influential titles of its time. Developed by Midway and distributed by Acclaim, the game introduced a darker tone, digitized fighters, and a competitive edge that helped shape the fighting game genre.

 

This Complete-In-Box (CIB) example has been professionally graded by CGC at 7.0, with strong subgrades across box, cartridge, and manual — preserving a full-package release from one of gaming’s most iconic franchises.

 

Encapsulated within CGC’s protective archival holder, the game remains preserved as both a historical artifact and a display-worthy collectible — combining gaming legacy, nostalgia, and certified preservation in one piece.

 

This is not simply a video game.

 

This is a preserved Competition Edition release from one of the titles that defined competitive fighting game culture.
