About Mortal Kombat 11 in brief

Summary Mortal Kombat 11Mortal Kombat 11 is a fighting game developed by NetherRealm Studios. It is the eleventh main installment in the Mortal Kombat series. The game was released in North America and Europe on April 23, 2019 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It was released on the Stadia on November 19, 2019. An expansion for the game, entitled Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath, was released on May 26, 2020. It includes an additional story mode, three new characters, new stages, and the return of stage fatalities and the friendship finishing move. It received generally favorable reviews, which praised the gameplay, story, graphics, and improved netcode. However, it received criticism for the presence of microtransactions, and over-reliance on grinding. Injustice 2 is the sequel to the previous two games in the series, including MK Mobile. Like the previous three games, it is a 2.5D fighting game. It offers a character customization system similar to the Gear system in Netherrealm Studios’ previous DC Comics fighting game In Justice 2, improving over the Variation system featured in Mortal Kripton X. Unlike In justice 2, the characters’ appearance does not determine their abilities, allowing the players to create custom move lists independently of their character’s appearance. It also offers a Flawless Block mechanic, which allows for a comeback window after blocking an attack with precise timing.

Alongside the returning Fatalities, Brutalities, Stage Fatalities and Quitalities, new gameplay features are introduced, such as Fatal Blows and Krushing Blows. Like X-ray moves, FatalBlows deal a large amount of damage, but unlike them, they only become available when a player’s health drops below 30% and can only be performed once per match. The player can also opt to revive their opponent, giving them a small amount of life, like most Brutalities in the previous game. A time storm brings Shao Kahn, Skarlet, Baraka, and younger versions of Kano, Erron Black, Jade, Raiden, Kitana, Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, Sonya, Jax, Scorpion, Kabal, and Kung Lao into an alternate timeline. This erases Dark Raiden from existence. A battle erupts in Kotal’s Koliseum until Skao Kahn transports DVorah, Black Kano and Raiden into her hive; recruiting them into the Special Forces. The Special Forces learn that Earthrealm’s life capsules contain powerful energy capsules containing Earth’s life force. The subsequent battle ends with Geras Geras using his chronokinetic powers to escape with his henchman Noobtor. The team succeeds in destroying the Netherrealn castle, though at the cost of Sonya’s life. The next day, Shao and Baraka appear at the Earthm’s Special Forces HQ, forging an alliance with Liu Kang and Jade to aid Kotal Kahn.
