The prospect of decapitating a rival with a stroke of your finger is just too good to pass up, and with the promise of touchscreen fatalities and X-ray moves, Mortal Kombat for PS Vita looks like good (not clean) fun. Hell, it even has its own take on Fruit Ninja, except you'll be slicing up skulls instead of melons and pineapples.

It also comes with extra characters and klassic character skins, making Mortal Kombat Vita quite possibly the most definitive version of the game yet. There's loads of new Tower Challenges too, supporting Vita's tilt controls and touchscreen. What's not to like?

And the good news is that Mortal Kombat will be getting blood on your hands as it heads to PS Vita today in North America and on Friday, May 4th in the UK and Europe. Flawless victory? We'd say that the launch trailer will help you make your mind up. Check it out below.
