    There's an awesome game buried under a ton of pretty bad things.
    Most anoying thing for me is the fact thatyou have to use the basic WASD controls in menu and in the crypt even when you rebind the keys.
    A terrible conversion of a fantastic game. Shame, but still enjoyable.

    The graphics are brilliant and the fighting combat gameplay is exceptional. This could have been the premier fighting game on the PC, but alas the broken multiplayer component puts it at a mediocre value. What good is good gameplay when you rarely get to play? Buy the console version or skip it.

    Overall, MKX is a poor title. At the end of the day you will end up being bored to tears fighting against the same cookie-cutter combos online or you will end up being annoyed as much as it is possible fighting against your typical MK input reading AI.

Medium difficulty is definitely too easy, while hard difficulty reads your inputs even outside the actual gameplay (eg. if you practice input during the loading screen, the AI character will counter it immediately).

    The game mechanics are still beyond terrible, and the game does a really poor job explaining them (eg. grabs work in absolutely different way than the game informs you). The balance is absolutely off - people will play Scrubpion, Erron, Ermac and few other one overpowered combo characters (punch walk ftw), while some characters are just terribly, terribly weak (Ferra/Tor, Mileena and others).

    It's a fun game for a while and living towers can deliver few minutes of entertainment. It's a safe bet for 5 €. 50 € - just no.

    Flashy graphics and the Story mode are not enough to save this wreck, and that is without even looking at the awful launch.

As of right now, it is a better idea to play Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition and wait until MKX gets its own Komplete Edition. Expand

    Simply put, the game itself is fun, graphics are mostly up to par.

    However it is so obvious that they did not put in the effort to optimize this on the pc

    I'm guessing like 5~6 more updates before the game runs "as it should" on the pc

    It's still playable but just simply insulting the way they ported this game

    I´m a little disappointed of the new MKX (i´ve been a fan since MK1). Graphically(technically) it´s definitely an improvement over MK9 and there a handful of good fatalities BUT the arenas are few and quite boring, there is no visible damage on the fighters (liked it a lot in MK9). And that stupid 30-60-30-60 FPS thing is annoying!
    So just another game rotting in my steam library...

    Broken release, **** DLC crap, waaay worse story mode than MK9 and bad PC controls without game pad. Other than that this game is fun with very good graphics and solid combat. I really think that MK9 was way superior to this game, but this game is still decent (not great, bud not horrible).

    Netherealm Studios has completely messed up their series after such a great entry as Mortal Kombat 9. Not even mentioning how broken the PC version is, the story is horrible, the character line-up leaves much to be desired, the fatalities are toned down and the gameplay is a step back from MK9. I can't find it in myself to enjoy this game.

    There are many reasons to love and hate this game, especially this PC version.
    The good:
    -3 combat variations for each character -Interesting movie-like story mode -Improved Krypt is a game within the game -Great fatalities and brutalities -Love the kombos! The bad: -Story mode is very short (Took me 4 hours, even took it slow) +PC port has issues (to name a few) -Online play

    -Shuttering and other FPS issues that seem unfixable
    -Players losing save files
    -Slow to patch game
    -Many others depending person to person and on your hardware
    -Pre order bonus character Goro and other day one DLC, Kombat Pack characters aren't available right away. More than likely much more in game purchases to come.

    I would recommend buying the game on console if you have the option, otherwise I think the game will be worth it in the long run for PC. I think I saw this game for $20 on g2a, I would have felt better purchasing this game at that price but unfortunately I paid full price for a game that wasn't yet ready for release on PC.

    The last MK game I played was was the 2011 game on PS3, and I thought it felt a little like a public domain game, a bit rough around the edges and for me the thrill was definitely gone, but then again the basic idea wasn't invigorated much.

    - So short the campaign mode.
    - Characters of campaign thay you defeat but you cant play with it.
    - A very strange coloring/saturation/contrast in the game. Like killer instinct at xbox one, that spoil the graphics!

    For that reasons I bealive that MKX is worse than the last one (MK 2011). The MK 2011 bring back the game. So I think MKX should only add new features and characters, not remove then.
    =======================================================================
    Português:
    Tenho este jogo na versão do ps4. Sou um grande fã da marca, achei o jogo bom, mas tem grandes defeitos. Separando os pontos que acredito serem relevantes:

    Positivos:
    - Os novos personagens tem profundidade, são ótimos.
    - Boa história.
    - As facções foram uma ideia legal.

    Negativos:
    - Tem poucos personagens e cenários. Menos que o antecessor. O que é um absurdo.
    - Não permite mais jogar com 4 pessoas! Não da pra acreditar que fizeram isso.
    - Campanha da história curta.
    - Personagens que aparecem pra lutar na história mas que não são jogáveis.
    - Gráficos com saturação de cor ou contraste fora do comum, que estragam os gráficos. Parece o killer instinct do xbox one.

    Por estas rações, acho que o MKX esta um pouco pior que o antecessor. Do meu ponto de vista, o jogo lançado em 2011 trouxe a franquia de volta aos bons tempos, e este agora deveria ter acrescido a ele em número, sem tirar nada que tinha de bom. Da forma que foi feito parece que foi um trabalho realizado sem capricho.

    MKX es la continuación de MKKE, el juego reivindicación de la saga. Agrega mecánicas interesantes y antiguas (como la de correr), mejora audiovisual y de conexión por multijugador en línea.
    Las contras son: Quitaron el modo 2 contra 2, peores opciones para modo 1J (agregaron varias torres aburridas e innecesesarias y eliminaron la torre de los retos, quisieron poner lo de la facción de guerra pero no resultó y no fue nada llamativo), modo historia bastante mediocre y olvidable, nuevos personajes muy rebuscados y genéricos, ya establecieron como estándar esto de invitar a personajes de películas, algo que me parece innecesario en vez de meter peleadores de MK, mucho DLC antes de lanzarse y a precio muy elevado. Pero lo peor fue el lanzamiento de PC, dándole el trabajo del port a una empresa pequeña que se notaba no sabía lo que hacía. Es de los peores ports de lanzamiento en PC y eso no se puede olvidar por más que hoy no haya problemas con el mismo.
    El juego en general me parece inferior a MK9 / MKKE en cuanto a contenido y duración personal, en modo multijugador debería ser más estable y con menos lag, pero en lo que es jugabilidad (en mi opinión sumamente personal) lo veo mejor a MKKE.
    Otra cosa, en PC el juego está muerto.

    Characters :The characters(including Variations) in this game represent: Jonny cage( old Sylvester Stallone); Sonya Blade & Cassie cage(Mother and Daughter from Brazzers who want to have fun);Kitana(the Arab belly dancer);Mileena(Gone Girl with teeth); D vorah( Chinese Butterfly Effect); Jacq Briggs(Ebony Destruction); Ferra & Torr( Devil May Cry with a kangaroo baby on shoulders);Characters :The characters(including Variations) in this game represent: Jonny cage( old Sylvester Stallone); Sonya Blade & Cassie cage(Mother and Daughter from Brazzers who want to have fun);Kitana(the Arab belly dancer);Mileena(Gone Girl with teeth); D vorah( Chinese Butterfly Effect); Jacq Briggs(Ebony Destruction); Ferra & Torr( Devil May Cry with a kangaroo baby on shoulders); Ermac(The Mummy Returns); Kotal Khan(Apocalypto); Goro( Four arm Assassin Creed with Blades); Erron Black (call of juarez gunslinger with Mask); Kenshi (47 Ronin); Reptile( Lizardman); Jax (the expendables 3: the dark version); takeda(the human centipede:weapon); Kung Jin(Korean Green Arrow);Quan chi (Pusssy version of Kratos); Kano( Pirate version of cyborg); Raiden( Taiwan Fisherman); Predator( Fantasy of every American that he should exist); Tanya( Tarzan;Rocco); Jason Voorhees(Scream; silent version)
    By the way Teen Army ( cassie,jac,tak,kung) in MKX is fccuking annoying with Next Generation (teens) dull faces.
    X Rays:In MKX bones break like plastic. They are 2 frame Xrays ie 1st frame bone normal(intact) and on impact 2nd frame bone breaks. It dilutes intensity of X Ray. Why not bones crush on instant impact like in MK9?
    For PC X-Rays are pure cinematic 30FPS and gameplay is 60FPS on lower resolution. The frame drop from 60-30fps for x-rays makes my eyes bleed and x-rays look slow motion. X rays are supposed to be internal damage due to special moves performed by characters. So there should be a physical contact! As far as piercing and aerial Xrays are not actual Xrays. ( corrupted shinnok; kenshi;Erron Black etc).
    Xrays are not part of gameplay this time and are on cinematic side. Lui Kang Xray performs 11 hits on opponent in which 2 hits break bones and I have to sit and watch the damn 11 hits again & again every match when he performs Xray. In MK9 Lui Kang X Ray was superb with just 2 hits(upper cut & kick) & it looked damn nice . If you compare Xrays of MK9 with MKX; MK9 Xrays are superior and well designed(feel fresh) compared to MKX which get boring very fast and I wish there should have been a button to skip Xray cinematic in MKX for Cassie cage because that xray is a brutal one and my nuts say to my brain don’t select cassie since you can feel your nuts getting crushed is worst nightmare for a boy.
    Fatalities:Fatalities are supposed to be humiliation of the opponent. MKX fatalities have become cliché like SAW movies you go on cutting people for no reason and yet the movie wants to be in a horror genre. This is not horror! Cutting people like vegetables. Similarly MKX fatalities now don’t reflect humiliation of opponent. It represents you just have to cut your opponent in number of small pieces like onion and in any way as possible. The camera angles for fatalities are disgusting show all brain & intestine. I get it you have to cut but it can be shown in less graphic and not letting camera almost touch slaughtered bodies and showing the winning character.
    Gameplay mechanics: The game looks fast in videos but the PC version feels weird. The characters feel heavy. The characters don’t respond to the commands and due to this it is difficult to achieve multiple combos at a time (+ 30% damage: Kitana’s kombos difficult to achieve). Sometimes moves appear slow (Kano jump in air appears slow while playing: 60fps).
    The characters jump automatically in stages due to props( jumps due to animal sitting in Outworld stage) at first I couldn’t understand why the fccuk my character is jumping and not punching . Then throw items that are on stage (throw a branch of tree) randomly character does this action ruins kombos and flow of fighting.
    The special moves of characters ( jaqcline, jax ,sonya(1 variation)) have missiles, rocket launcher, terminator flying machine, machine guns!! Seriously?? MKX now has to depend on rockets and bullets in the game. You can just spam all the through the round with these and win.
    Instead of ( X,A,Y,B) why the game doesn’t have alternate mapping for right stick? I know many gamers don’t play with right stick but kombos can be performed relatively easy using right Analog stick. Now just smash the buttons X,B then Y doesn’t get registered so kombo fails and again smash the buttons X,B…So we have to win the game performing only 2 or 3 moves during the round. The fighting lacks rhythm atleast on pc and not to forget FPS drops while playing.
    Now for the variation of characters the downside of this is some of the charcters have less kombos in one of their variation( e.g: X,X,Y,B is broken into X,X,Y AND Y-B etc.) my point is main kombo is broken into several parts in a variation. Now the downside of this feature is when you play classic tower or continous matches you are left with handful of kombos to perform during the tower which feels boring after 7th or 8th match.

Now we see that online playing is interesting, fatalities and Brutalities are great, but without great epic scenario, which was in MK9, game lose's its attractiveness.

    I like:
    - Minor changes or details to chars. Like new Mileena's teeth, Kitana's awesome jumps animations like yeah she jumps with such grace, that only MK9 Sonya's jump kick can compete; Kano overall aestetic of old ugly survivalist, hell they even added fat to his back, to make him look like he got his strenght not from gym, but from actually killing people.
    - More character-based combos, that actually uses unique strengths of each.

    I dont like:
    - Game has problems with gamma and color pallets. It feels like it has a brown filter all over all textures and lighting in this game is one of the worst, making every scene look darkend, has unnatural shadows and all in all feels like a mess.
    - Arenas are mostly nighttime, has only one version of them and lack uniqueness. Exceptions are Jungles and Wharf.
    - Downgraded female bodies. They have bodies of 16 olds, no ass, no breasts, because having those for females is evil and toxic and patriarchy.
    People agreed MK9 once were a bit over the top. MKX is extreme overcompensation for this. Female either wear generic NPC soldier jackets(Jacqui/Sonya) or some generic top+trousers suit (Mileena/Tanya). And dont you dare show some skin.
    Design in 9 been critisized for lacking personality and "all the heroines are the same".
    Well, now they are so **** different.
    The only bright exceptions are Kitana and Dvorah’s alt.
    - Hard emphasis on Special Force who no one like. Now we have like 4 Stryker characters for tfs.
    - Hard emphasis on online, lack of single player content. (I really miss MK9 challenge tower)
    - No tag.
    - Soundtrack first time in 25 years is forgettable at best and adds to all-in-all bland feeling of being in airless and stuffy place.

    Bad:
    - Variation system. While being a valid idea, the implementation was heavily flawed. In half the cases, the variations represent different sides of the same character. But others exist in parallel to the character, which could easily be given to any other. Like Sonya's drone. The joke is that in MK11 drone now is given to Cassie. There are like 5 characters who has telekinetic or summoning spells like Cage, Ermac, Kenshi, Scorpion which make lines between heroes completely blured.
    - New heroes mostly uninspired, bland NPCs, both in looks and personality. “Kids” are just teenager movie mary sues. "But I like Jackie!1!" - look, I have an idea how ho check coolness. Ask yourself "Will this character be cool as a Guest Character in another game?" I can imagine Scorpion or even Kung Lao be guests in IJ or other fightings. But will enyone buy Kung Jin dlc pack?
    - Retconing new heroes into story.
    - Story mode.
    Is B movie, blockbuster filled with most boring cliche's like:
    Faceless NPC armies, existing only to get kicked by heroes.
    Supervillain that shows off at the beginning and disappear until the end.
    Characters kept to some unnatural roles and squads losing their identity, like Liu Kang and Syndel riding HELLHORSES.
    Just, just you know, its time to stop.
    Also chapter-based story makes all of enemy characters always lose, so how should we believe Quan Chi is a threat if he’s got beaten by everyone?

    Someone says MKX has "evolved from just mindless violence" plot. And I disagree.
    We love MK for brutality, blood, gore and sex-appeal.
    And not for family "things", generations issues and block-buster clichés. I got a dissonance when characters who is this teenager-movie H E R O E S talk to their parents in pre-fights and then bone-ripping part kicks in. Its lame.
    We love every piece of art for what it is, for its unique themes and features. Bringing MK plot to Hollywood B movie type and Humanization of characters of bone-ripping game is not evolution its losing identity in trying to appeal to wider audience. MKX attempt to make multi-dimensional characters ended up with making almost everyone boring, mediocre and uninspiring.
    Between having a 5 sentences long but hinting to something more bio and fully fleshed out but mediocre (at best) "personality" I choose first.

    I don’t want emo-kid Takeda to cry over my screen, I want Jax fighting after losing his hands.
    I don’t want out-of-nowhere FEELINGS between dude and Cassie’s forgettable girlfriend I want betrayals and mature regrets.
    I dont want Hanzo Hasashi I want Scorpion.
    I dont want Injustice I want MK.

MKX seemed to be in the middle of the morality spectrum. It was a jack of all trades, if you will. The roster was good, but we felt there could've and should've been some more fitted in there, the story is good as well, but seemed to rely only on asinine misunderstanding, and the gameplay was great, but good luck going online and not being met with either a player who's spent collective weeks playing and mastering the game, or a player who is just as good as you, but just knows how to use a projectile. So yeah, online sucks, what else is new. Anyways, I feel the third party characters in this game feel like they have a justification for being there, unlike Thanos in MK9 who was just there because you decided that buying a Mortal Kombat game on a Playstation was a good idea. but I digress, Mortal Kombat left a sour taste in my mouth, but I've played worse. *coughmkvsdcuniversecough* Expand

    A high-quality fighting game with high-quality damage detail and a quite good storyline

    I hate and love this game at the same time. Absolutely unbalanced, but nevertheless I played it, participated in tournaments and got a kind of pleasure. But what NRS is doing with the fighting game genre is a spit in the soul of the fans.

    A bad port even in 2022. I finished the story but the game glitched and stuttered again and again. I cannot imagine the state of it at release.
    Bought it again on sale for PS4.

    Excellent fighting mechanics and an incongruously good story hampered by serious performance issues. [June 2015, p.56]

    MKX will last you for a long time. A few variations of the usual Arcade Mode, some dumb mini-games, online multiplayer, a lengthy story campaign, and, finally, Krypt… Not all changes to gameplay mechanics are obvious, but they do make the game more dynamic.
  3. It’s still the same fun and crazy fighting that demands from the player exactly as much as he wants to give. You can gather your friends and simply mash buttons to enjoy bloody spectacle, or you can spend hours perfecting your techniques to compete with professional players. No matter how you choose to play it, MKX will find something to offer. [June 2015, p.64]
