Save on the HORI Real Arcade Pro 4 Kai and Razer Panthera EVO when purchased with Mortal Kombat 11 at GameStop

Those in the market for a new fight stick might want to give these deals a look!

Video game retailer, GameStop, is hosting a bit of a sale on popular fight sticks when purchased with the upcoming Mortal Kombat 11.

GameStop is bundling the HORI Real Arcade Pro 4 Kai in various colors with Mortal Kombat 11 at a $20 discount. This applies to the premium edition as well, so those wanting to maximize their purchase will find it well worth it. The HORI RAP 4 Kai is a solid fight stick at an even more solid price. This discount should make it all the more appealing. You can learn all about the HORI RAP 4 Kai in our Shoryuken review here. Unfortunately, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch players are left without a fight stick bundle.

While not being exclusively bundled, GameStop is also featuring a discount on the Razer Panthera EVO when purchased with Mortal Kombat 11 for PlayStation 4, lowering the price to $179.99. This offer is applied when both items are placed within your cart. The Razer Panthera EVO brings new improvements to aesthetics with its easily swappable art function, but also made itself bit harder to modify by losing its easy to open case. All in all, it’s still a rather impressive fight stick, and any discount is worth noting! You can read all about the Razer Panthera EVO in our Shoryuken review here. The previous Razer Panthera and Razer Atrox are also on sale but are not a part of the same promotion and are limited to in-store only.

To make either purchase complete, on top of gaining beta access to Shao Kahn by pre-ordering Mortal Kombat 11, GameStop is also giving away an exclusive tin and Scorpion themed neck wrap for valid pre-orders. Mortal Kombat 11 releases on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC on April 23.
