    I suppose the best way to describe Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath is as a finishing move of its own. Though, it’d be a Friendship, rather than a Fatality. It’s in many ways a means of NetherRealm showing appreciation for the series’ history. The free additions pay tribute to the past by bringing back old moves in a gorgeous way. The paid elements give two more classic fighters a chance to return, Robocop a chance to dole out justice, and an even better capper to a story that gives returning fighters who showed up as DLC a place in the story. It’s all handled incredibly well and, to be honest, even people who just come back to the game for the massive free update and its balance updates and additions will be more than satisfied.

    Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath is a fantastic expansion to the game with three fun characters and a great conclusion to the Mortal Kombat story. It's a shame, however, that they didn't offer people the option to buy the content individually instead of together at the steep price.

    Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath is the biggest update for the game yet. It adds three hours to the already epic storyline and next to that three great characters, Sheeva, Fujin, and RoboCop. Next to the new story and characters, the bloodshed can be varied in new levels with stage fatalities in a more peaceful matter with a friendship. The only real downside to the content is the price.

    Netherrealm Studios and Warner Bros Games have done a great job, certainly higher than the old Kombat Packs, but once again the price is not exactly affordable.

    A compelling DLC for an excellent game. It's more of the same, but with new and interesting characters.

    Mortal Kombat 11 was always a perfectly fine game, and Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath gives it a few extra hours of story, a few more characters and moves, and not much else.

    £35 for half a Kombat Pack and a three-hour epilogue is terrible value for money, especially as only two of the new characters are any good.

Netherrealm studios didn't just give us a dlc, but a full experience and the result shows it. Story people will love this, over the top with smooth execution, full of tragic moments, I find myself feeling sorrow, anger, hope and despair all along the way. The execution is just incredible, game play enticing and intense, didn't loose a notch from the previous MK11 release.… Expand

    Not bad. Too bad developers have lost respect to women characters, they became ugly, like girls cannot look after themselves anymore.

    Also    Not bad. Too bad developers have lost respect to women characters, they became ugly, like girls cannot look after themselves anymore.

    Also pretty complex Krypt, unlocking fatalities became pain in a ass.

    And, it is donating hell (buy dlc, buy character, buy resources, wtf? So annoying. In the end you can spent so much money, instead of buying few other new games).

    IMHO previous 2 parts were more interesting.    … Expand

    Aftermath is a Kombat Pack with makeup. It is absurd for Mr. Ed Boon to launch such a slot. There have always been unlockable characters inAftermath is a Kombat Pack with makeup. It is absurd for Mr. Ed Boon to launch such a slot. There have always been unlockable characters in past games. We understand that it is in the market to launch character packs ... but it is worse than beating your own mother to launch a story mode DLC, which tends to be canonical. Warner, NetherReal and Ed Boon are not going to see my money anytime soon. The gamer community should revolt with this type of practice.… Expand
