The Mortal Kombat Twitter account recently shared a sign-up page for the upcoming stress test for Mortal Kombat 1, set to release in September.

To sign up for the stress test, fans must have a Warner Bros. Games account and select their preferred testing platform, currently only PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are listed.
The Mortal Kombat 1 stress test aims to identify persistent issues that may have gone unnoticed during quality assurance testing. This public alpha or beta phase may give early adopters an advantage compared to those who experienced issues with other recent game releases such as Cyberpunk 2077 or Redfall. In addition to connection issues, the stress test may also help identify animation issues, bugs resulting from unforeseen button prompts, or any balancing issues ahead of the September launch.
NetherRealm Studios is expecting a bustling launch day for Mortal Kombat 11 due to the clear graphical advancements made since the original title which has inspired elements of the new game. The studio is hopeful that stress test players will further enhance the launch day experience. Although Mortal Kombat 1 will be available on multiple platforms, including Nintendo Switch, PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, the stress test is only available on the latter two consoles, potentially hinting at a future test for PC.
