The highly anticipated stress test for Mortal Kombat 1 is currently underway, and gamers who were unable to secure a code through official channels are resorting to alternative means. Desperate to get a taste of the action, some players are willing to pay exorbitant amounts, with codes fetching hundreds of dollars on online auction sites such as eBay.
The frenzy surrounding the limited availability of stress test codes reached new heights today as bidding wars erupted over these coveted digital keys. One particularly noteworthy example saw a code attract 19 bids, eventually selling for an eye-watering $810. Although some listings have been removed by eBay, the trend highlights the lengths to which players are willing to go to gain access to the stress test.
