Warner Bros. today advised of a partnership with CouchWarriors that will bring Mortal Kombat X to Melbourne in tournament form.

Battle Arena Melbourne 7 has been billed by the partnership as the “first large scale tournament for Mortal Kombat X in Australia.”

The tournament will feature the Mortal Kombat Pit, an R18+ themed tournament play area, a Mortal Kombat X tournament with a $1,000 AUD prize pool and special guest, two-time EVO World Champion Carl ‘Perfect Legend’ White.

Battle Arena Melbourne 7 runs from 22-24 May. Mortal Kombat X heads to PS4, Xbox One and Windows PC on 15 April.

Update: I apparently forgot how months work. Updated this post’s title and opening line accordingly.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.
