2012 was a huge year where publishers recognized they could probably make money once more with titles for the PC. The industry suspects less exclusives in 2013, and a few more series finding its way to the Computer Gaming market.
Mortal Kombat 9

Publisher: Konami
Lord of Shadows is the 2010 action-adventure reboot of the Castlevania series. Last year, it had been announced Lord of Shadows 2 would be available for PC.
