The combat system is simple to grasp as the series has always been, but there are layers of depth and strategy adding new depth to the series. Moves are still basically high and low attacks and defenses, but each one has a weight to it that needs to be played to be appreciated. You feel the impact of a punch or kick like a real 200lb MMA fighter would throw. The recipient shudders as he or she absorbs the assault and reacts realistically. Scorpion and Sub-Zero, or whoever is smashing into each other, is just awesome to experience over and over again.
Mortal Kombat is one of the longest-running video game franchises, but it has been lacking in spin-offs, which needs to change.
The last two MKs have been overrun with micro transactions, lame new characters and weak crossovers (ex. omni man)
They also go way too far with the gore now, the Finishers were much better in earlier games and not as ridiculous. So tired of the extreme and unnecessary gore. Gore has always been part of MK but whoever is designing the finishers now is awful; they're not fun they're just disgusting.
They should remaster Shaolin Monks
No it needs to release a complete game with no predatory microtransactions and a million season passes. I have been an MK fan since the first arcade machine hit and now if I want to play MK, I play my MK arcade machine
A Mortal Kombat Remaster could be in development, as teased by the Eyeballistic CEO on Twitter through allegedly AI-generated images.
Didn't they have HD remakes of the first 3 games ready and for some reason decided not to release it? And also, wasn't a remake of the first game being developed already with all new actors portraying the original cast and they shelved that one too?
It's all they know how to do now huh ? Could've atleast have a look at remaking/remastering Shaolin Monks.
GameSpew: Episode 3 of The Boys season 4 parodied Mortal Kombat with Vought's Tournament of Heroes. Now we want it to be real.
my only complaint about the game is i want custom soundtrack on PS3 version back.
Yes that would have been cool.
