The Terminator feels like a bit of an anachronism in the Mortal Kombat world, but he's certainly not the most unusual character to hit the series. Still, he's got a lot of fighting game fans curious to try him out, so now feels like a good time to put Mortal Kombat 11 on sale. However, WB Games and NetherRealm are going a step further. If you're playing on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, not only is the full game on sale, but the Kombat Pack (which includes The Terminator) is also being offered at a significant discount. So if you want to full MK11 experience, it should be a cheaper package to pick up.

If you'd still like to try it, even before dishing out for the discounted price, remember that there's a free weekend going down right now!

Elsewhere, the Nintendo Switch's Square Enix sale continues for one more day. But there's also a Bandai Namco sale going on all weekend. This sale includes games like Dragon Ball FighterZ and various anime games, but it also includes the recently-released RAD. This collaboration with Double Fine is one of the finest roguelikes to release this year, so consider picking it up if you haven't already.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
