Mortal Kombat Gold is a Sega Dreamcast exclusive update to Mortal Kombat 4, released in 1999. The game was a Dreamcast launch title in North America.

Gold is essentially the same as Mortal Kombat 4, but adds Kitana, Mileena, Cyrax, Kung Lao, Baraka and Sektor from previous Mortal Kombat games. It also includes some new stages.

The game was criticised upon release for its sub-par graphics. Rather than play to the Dreamcast's strengths, the game was said to look more like the Nintendo 64 port of Mortal Kombat 4, and in some cases, worse.

Like several of Midway's Dreamcast games, the game was re-released with a "Hot! New!" label in North America, fixing many of the game's bugs (including VMU support, allowing the player to save). As well as the label the game can be identified with its red-tinted disc.
