A launch trailer for the Nintendo Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1 is no longer available to view on YouTube after fans spotted a Steam achievement pop up in the middle of it.
The game has already come under fire for a range of technical and graphical issues, with some fans calling its $70 price point "a robbery".
It's now receiving more criticism thanks to the official trailer posted on Nintendo of America's YouTube channel, which seemingly includes PC gameplay to advertise the Switch version of the game.
