    No fan service, no combos, as a female gamer I did not like the girls in mk11 at all. Not one revealing outfit which I found absurd and very out of place from Mortal Kombat. Like I said gameplay is very bad, very very bad. Krystals and unoriginal gear are a hustle. The only good thing is the graphics but cmon

Well, learn from MK11 and you will succeed fast! MK11 is worst MK of all time and you know why? Because they took all the iconic characters and absolutely ruined their look, in every way possible. They made all female characters as ugly as possible and gave them worst possible outfits of any fighting game. They don't even look like same characters anymore. I hope they explain in next game that MK11 Kitana was just from another Universe and now classic REAL Kitana is back. Because if they don't, i wont even care if they make MK12. MK11 was literally insulting video game. Only character that looked good was Noob Saibot, only character. That's not enough and ruining legacy characters is not good way to sell your game either. Why was Kitana Asian, serious question. Why? She has ALWAYS been white. Always. in every game ever, she was white and in movie she was also white woman. Why or even how, would you randomly change her race? It makes no sense. Absolutely no sense. And all the costumes were trash as well. MK9 remains as last and also one of the best MK games ever, MKX was fine, but didn't have best roster and sadly MK11 ruined it all. I rather play any 2002-2006 era MK game than 11. These games were way better, had way better looking characters and actually good costumes. Also why would they ruin Skarlet like that? She was my favorite new female character in MK9 and in MK11 she looks NOTHING like in that one. She looks like completely different person. It's not enough that you say "-this is Skarlet". No. She needs to look like one as well. It's like making sub-zero Pink and saying "well this is sub zero now", Doesn't work like that. Not even sure they can fix any of this in MK12. Would they just go back to old looks from MK9 and say that MK11 was mistake? Would they make Kitana White again? pretty sure they wont, so sadly i'm confident MK is over. Thankfully i can still enjoy all the old ones that were actually phenomenal. Expand

    I still remember when I played the first one in the arcade, and them the others on PS1, 2 and 3.
    Those games had Personality.
    But with this entry, the series lost all its appeal to me.
    Same old story, boring new characters, crappy game mechanics (the worst is when you jump, most of the time the AI reads your imput and walk towards you, and crossups don't work).
    Final story boss is completely wrong (no recovery, all she does is teleporting and spamming).
    About the design, female characters were almost asexualized (no more curves, makeup, all covered in body armors, Sheva looks like a guy), while males kept their stud shapes.
    MK was always an exaggerated game in ALL terms, but now they completely lost it. Another deological/mainstream art direction which is keeping games plain.
    Just look at the unlockable cosmetics section, they ALL LOOK THE SAME. Armors, armors, and even more armors. No more iconic clothing, again, for the female characters. Sonya, Cassie, Briggs...they all look the same. And Frost became just another cyborg ninja.
    Speaking of unlockables, the game inherited the worst of the videogame industry. Loot boxes, in-game currency (extremely hard to farm), microtransaction and loads of equipment which (again) all look the same.
    Injustice 2 was 1000x times better than this.
    MK died for me today.

The only good thing about this game are the graphics and brutalities. MkX outshines this game without even question. People want the gameplay to be fun and challenging. If someone beat you at MkX, they were generally better. On Mk11, you may get beat by a terrible player using simple moves. The game isn’t fun and is a huge let down given MK9 and MkX preceding it. 4 out of 10 and that is being nice. Expand

Providing not one, not two, not three, not four but five different wake up options the player who has been knocked down has the advantage. Frequently I have been trying to meaty someone on knockdown and they roll away and punish me for a full combo or they breakaway and another full combo. The fatal blow mechanic is the worst mechanic to be introduced with the touch of a button the game rewards you with 30-35% with most players randomly pressing it at any time so you have to watch the terrible cutscenes 100s of times. The game is based for new players and supports spam heavy play styles something which I felt MK has always tried to avoid. The community is toxic with many games ending in teabagging or getting some sort of message saying that you or your gameplay is **** Then most players once you spank them once they will resort to one of the more spam heavy characters in the game such as Sheeva and continue to spam the stomp which is ridiculously good on a casual level. The game is straight up stress even for someone who is trying to not take it that seriously and just have a couple of games. Additionally, 50/50s in MKX were a key part of the gameplay in this game they’re just spammed mid screen combined with players who don’t have the slightest clue what they’re doing makes for a terrible mash fest where the player who luckily makes the right reads will win. If you enjoy going through 20 controllers a month on mashing your controller buy this game. Expand

    Alright, I was going to put a whole backstory of how my love for this franchise goes back all the way to 1992, when I was nine years old and how my childhood and teenage years can be defined by two words: Mortal Kombat. But then it got too long and I realized no one cares. Suffice to say, I've been playing the franchise since its debut.

    Like most MK fans, I was hyped for MK11. Up until recently, I still was. That enthusiasm has subsided quickly once I actually started to play the game deeply. First, as you can see in a lot of bad reviews here, yes, a lot of fans do not like the political agenda that was injected around and into the game. No matter what your politics might be, keep them out of a product you intend to sell. It's common sense. You want to appeal to the largest number of people possible, not alienate a few, and then proceed to demonize them when they don't agree with your line of thinking. Whether you are a liberal or conservative, your message will upset roughly half the people either way. So avoid it. In the case of MK, the devs responded by saying "please, don't call them fans" when it was pointed out to them that some fans didn't agree with their ideologies seeping into the game.

    Well, I own Mortal Kombat 11 on Steam, Xbox, PS4, and Switch, all last three being the Ultimate version. So yeah, I am a fan... but not a fanboy. Big difference. So you bet, I will review every port I own appropriately.

    Graphics -They are absolutely fantastic, no doubt. This is the best looking fighting game at the moment and the best looking Mortal Kombat game ever made, by far. Yeah, lots of gear customization here, which seems to have become the focal point of this game. But once you start fighting red Scorpions or neon Sub-Zeros, along with some downright embarrassing and nonsensical costumes that are repulsive to look at, I wish the system disappeared forever. Preset skins like MK9 and MKX were the perfect compromise. This is MK, not Street Fighter or Injustice.

    Story - Poorly written, but entertaining nevertheless. I think the visuals and familiarity we have with the characters mask that downside quite well. No? Well, put that plot in a movie with unfamiliar characters outside the MK universe and you got yourself a box office bomb and a laughing stock.

    Sound and music - Sound effects are great. The music is boring, forgettable, and unmemorable, better suited in a superhero-themed game. Get rid of this orchestral garbage and bring back the East Asian undertones and kung-fu atmosphere that was part of the foundation of this franchise, please.

    Gameplay - It's very deep, the tutorial is great, one of the best I have ever seen. Frame data, block advantage, man - it's really something to get into. Makes you appreciate fighting games and how technical they can be. That being said it is slower than MK9 and 10, which bothers some people. I really like the customization of abilities, you can really put your gameplay style and personality into your character.

    Single-player - Making progress is nightmarish, demoralizing, ludicrous, an affront to nature, and everything that is good and decent. It's like EA and Konami got together to make something as greedy and as evil as possible. It's disgusting. I like to dive deep into games, especially Mortal Kombat, just really doing everything the game has to offer. Here, the only things being offered are frustration and despair. I'm talking about the grinding, of course. This should be called a "working for Netherrealm simulator" - a taste of what crunching might feel like, except you're paying, instead of getting paid. Let this sink in: people actually use a turbo controller exploit and the AI to play the game for them and make progress. It's the only way unless you abandon all life outside this game.

    This game is like a greedy pig of a mobile game. It absolutely destroys an otherwise near perfect MK entry. I cannot begin to tell you how sad, hurt, and disappointed I am. For the first time in Mortal Kombat history, there are online requirements. You cannot even enter the Krypt if you are not connected to the MK11 servers. And it's all because the in-game currency can be purchased from them as "Time Krystals", with real money. That's what is all about. Despite the initial deception, this game is essentially a big loot box from hell and I despise it for it. Will I continue to play? Yes, I already spent all that money. But will I buy MK12? I highly doubt that things will revert to what they once were. In fact, it can only go worse from here. So most likely, no. This is probably the last MK game I will ever buy. Unless online requirements and grinding is gone, I'm out.

    PS4 specific - It's the port I'm mainly playing, on a PS4 Pro. Although rendered in much lower resolutions than the Xbox One X version, the graphics still look amazing, and most importantly, as with all ports, it plays at 60fps. Kudos for accepting my MK9 PDP tournament arcade stick.

    ...or any boss monster equivalent like Onaga or Corrupted Shinnok.

    But everyone else is there. This is obviously done so WB can sell the most popular characters as DLC later down the road. It is disappointing as hell, because the Gameplay is solid. However...

    ...despite the great gameplay the game itself is a drag to play. The developers apparently thought they were making a movie and not a game. We are presented w/ this epic cinematic experience that is fine for a week or so. After that, the experience wares off on you and the game is just depressing. It's like trying to rewatch the LOTR Trilogy over and over again - by the time you finish a second viewing you are just exhausted.

    This game is dull and colorless...on purpose. The default costumes are terrible for a reason, as they want users to grind through tedious challenge towers in order to unlock them. Most players wont bother, and will just end up spending the cash to unlock the costume they like...because lord knows nobody in their right minds is actually going to want to play as brown vested Johnny Cage or blue jumpsuit Sonya Blade. It's a despicable tactic to promote microtransactions.

    The real drawback with this however is that competitive play (at actual physical tournaments) are conducted w/ physical copies of the game. This means that everyone is forced to watch brown vest Johnny fight blue jumpsuit Sonya...hence its boring as hell. Not only that but Brutalities are locked as well...which takes away potentially hyped moments that could happen during competitive tournaments. It makes the game virtually unwatchable...and that is not hyperbole at all...the game is actually boring as heck to watch.

    Still, the game is fun to play because the gameplay is so good. So at this point my review is still a 7/10...unfortunately the final review score is going to be a 5/10 because of my next complaint...

    ...The Music!

    This music is terrible. It makes me want to kill myself. Seriously, it puts me in a depressed mood. I have to mute it, and play spotify instead. The music for a fighting game is suppose to get the player hyped, and wanting to battle! However, if I decide to chug some red bulls and pop in this game at 2 in the morning for some late night fights...then I just end up wanting to seek a therapist.

    For a franchise renown for it's electronic soundtrack ( this is a perfect time to mention that for some reason the worlds No. 1 EDM artist Dimitri Vegas is in the game as a playable character) this game is just generic orchestra dribble. Which is even more pathetic when you look at the backstage making of the soundtrack. There are YouTube videos that show WB blowing millions of dollars to hire an entire 200 person orchestra to create and perform the various themes - what a waste of money as they all sound like crap the rolls during the end-credits of some low grade sci-fi movie.

    May I remind you that in MK9 they actually hired Skrillex to do Reptile's theme. That this franchise has created multiple gold records for it's techno inspired music. That MK11 itself advertised itself via an EDM lightshow tour (via Dimitri Vegas) that it later used as its own viral television commercial. Heck, the initial trailer contained an original custom song performed by triple-platinum recording artist 21 Savage...

    ...and Dimitri Vegas is still currently touring w/ his custom Mortal Kombat theme song as well. Once again, they actually added Dimitri Vegas into the game as a playable character, but his music is nowhere to be found anywhere on disc.

    The least they could do would be to allow a "classic theme" option so we can listen to some of Dan Forden's old masterpieces, but sadly the Toasty Guy is done no justice at all with the POS soundtrack that made its way into the games final build.

    The music inspires me to NOT play the game. It doesn't get me, nor any other person on the face of this planet hyped to play. All it does is motivate us to turn off the game, and go outside! So, thx for that I guess.
