Mortal Kombat 3 (MK3) is the third entry in the Arcade line of Mortal Kombat games that was produced by Williams/Midway during the 90s. The franchise is famous (and infamous) for its gore and "Fatality" mechanic. Mortal Kombat 3 was hotly popular at the time, so it was ported to several many home consoles such as the SNES, Genesis, DOS, PSX, and Sega Saturn. However, a Macintosh port was planned, then silently cancelled.
mksecrets.net says that the game was going to be produced by Midway, developed by Digital Eclipse, and published by GT Interactive. They also claim that at least one retailer had it open for pre-orders.
Otherwise, very scarce information exists about this port. IGN.com has a listing for it with no other information, and it was never stated exactly why it was cancelled.
