All smiles: Joker fatality uncensored in MK vs DC European version

Ah, a glimmer of hope for Mortal Kombat vs DS Universe. If you live in Europe at least. You guys know how Joker’s wicked Fatality move was Teen-ified to keep with the game’s T rating? News has arrived that it’s being kept in for the European version.

Ah, a glimmer of hope for Mortal Kombat vs DS Universe (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3). If you live in Europe at least. You guys know how Joker’s wicked Fatality move was Teen-ified to keep with the game’s T rating? News has arrived that it’s being kept in for the European version.

After seeing some rather disappointing Fatality moves, the Joker’s was the only one I could say deserved to be called a Fatality. Share my joy that this was left intact:

In the edited version, the loser walks off-screen before the bullet got to him. Hans Lo, the game’s senior producer, explains why the European version got to keep Joker’s move:

That’s partly true [that the fatality has been edited]… You know, for North America we have a Teen rating, and teen really means 13 and above. Thirteen is pretty young, you have to admit. For Europe we have a 15, 16+ rating – so it’s a bit different.

If you don’t live in Europe though, there’s always importing.
