GOG.com Adds ‘Mortal Kombat 4’ to Its Library
We won’t have to wait long for Spawn to hit Mortal Kombat 11, but in the meantime, if you’re feeling nostalgic, GOG.com has something for you.
While it hasn’t aged well (and the cutscenes are hilariously awful), there’s a certain charm for the series’ first foray into 3D with Mortal Kombat 4. And now, you can play it again on PC! GOG.com have resurrected the 1997 fighter, allowing you to play it on modern computers.
MK4 joins the first three games on GOG.com, all of which are available for a reasonable price.
Spawn arrives in Mortal Kombat 11 on March 17 as part of the early access period for Kombat Pack owners, followed by wide availability on March 24.

Explore a Mysterious Island for Lost Riches in Co-Op Horror Adventure ‘Treasure Cove’ [Trailer]
Not to be confused with the 1992 educational sidescroller, Team5 has revealed the Steam page for its upcoming co-op title, Treasure Cove. Launching later this fall, this survival horror title sees you and your friends set out to explore a mysterious island in search of lost treasures. Of course, it’s never than simple, as exploring the island reveals more than you or your friends were expecting.
Details are still to come on the gameplay loop, but the basics for Treasure Cove have you and your squad navigating the island with a map and proximity voice chat in classic treasure-hunting style, with various gadgets to assist you in your search. Once you think you’ve found the spot, you start digging, and if you’ve read the map correctly, you’re rewarded with riches.
But as you might expect, digging up the treasure, extracting it and making it back to your boat isn’t so simple. Creatures are lurking in the darkness, and once they spot you, you’re on the run. Your only way of defense is to use your light, but even then, when you’re lugging around cursed treasure, you’re not safe for long. You and your team will need to keep quiet in order to avoid detection and survive.
If you do make it out alive, you can sell your treasures and buy better equipment for the next hunt.
Currently, the devteam is planning to have a playtest in the future, for which you can head over to the official site to sign up for the mailing list for when it arrives.
