Just in time for the official release of Mortal Kombat across Europe, the fine folks at NetherRealm Studios have released new screenshots from the PlayStation Vita game!

Klassic Sub-Zero versus Sektor!

The images offer a still glimpse of in-game graphics, which are said to run at a smooth 60FPS, equivalent to the console version. Mortal Kombat was released in the United States on May 1 [full story].

Pictured are some of the sixteen klassic costumes currently exclusive to the handheld version, "old skool" designs inspired by the first three Mortal Kombat titles. A zombie from the completely revamped Challenge Tower also appears, not to be confused with Meat, who makes a cameo appearance in the mode alongside much anticipated Special Forces inclusion, Tremor.

Yesterday, Atomhawk Design released new concept art from the game, offering a vivid glimpse at backgrounds from the reboot, along with a particularly fierce Kintaro render [full story]. A plethora of previews have already showcased the many unique features of the Vita, including Test Your Balance, Touchscreen Fatalities, Augmented Reality and Old Skool Skins.
