'''''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.
