    One of the best fighting games I've ever played. From story to production value to voice overs to character development. This game is just mind blowing.

    This is a MUST buy for any fighting fan, but also a great game to own if you have PS4/Xbox One. The graphics will blow your mind and you will be speechless.

    MKX is a pretty descent entry to the mk series, its looks great and the fatalities are gory as every although i am a little let down with it. I've had it 2 days and completed story mode so would of liked a bit more content there, the ending kind of sucked abit with the character that takes down shinnok. No stage fatalities blows they were a good way of mixing up your finishers.

I would of perferred another fatality to each character and less brutalitys which are just a varitation of a grab or some other move without the cinematic of a fatality. More characters in general also would of been nice all that being said its still a good addition just could have been better imo if there was a 7.5 thats what i'd give it seening how there's not its a 8 i guess.… Expand

    MKX is truly the best Mortal Kombat game in years. Many new mechanics and characters add the to depth of the gameplay. The story is short, but lets be honest, are you buying this for story mode? The fighting mechanics are fun to learn with new features including stage interactions and running. Each character having three variations makes the roster feel much larger than it is.

    I remember when MK1 first came out, in the Arcade it was something truly special. Kids would line up ready to pop in 25p to try and knock their opponent into the pit, or rip off a head or two. Finally the game was converted to home console and I got it on the legendary 'Mortal Monday'. I would spend hours with my brother smashing the hell out of each other in glorious 16 bit violence.

MK2 came next and was just as awesome, then MK3 which was even more F'ing awesome!

    Then..... Time passed by and I grew older and wiser, grew up. Had a family and stopped playing MK games. I played every other type of genre on PC through to N64, to Ps1 right up to modern consoles.

    Then, MK X appeared. At first I paid little attention, but the hype started building. I watched interviews, and story videos and fatality videos. I was been drawn in. Finally on the day of release I went and bought the game. Went home and loaded it up.

    And....... It is absolutely awesome!!!!!!! I feel like a kid again. Smashing the hell out of Kano's face, breaking Scorpion’s Back, Tearing the face off Raiden, Facing Goro all over again!!!!

    The fighting is perfect, the graphics are amazing, the story line epic and there is so much to see and do!

    Mortal Kombat X is a very entertaining game. If you like fighting games it will keep you entertained for hours. There's a wide selection of characters and the game seems well balanced. It's irritating that a number of characters are additional charged DLC but tere's enough variety for them not to be missed. Overall a great game that's well worth buying.

If that's ok for you, so be it. As far as Im concerned the voice volume can be turned completely down. The graphics are pretty decent, but not up to par with next generation quality. I enjoy Mortal Kombat and am partial to games I can play locally with my kids so I give this game a decent score. It plays great and is fun. I do believe content could have been and should have been deeper, especially for a game with such history and an extensive back catalog. I may purchase the additional content, but Im not sure as like most gamers I am tired of being nickled and dimed to death by these greedy game developers and systems. Once again, a fine game for fans of the fighting genre but lacking in content that should be there.… Expand

The characters redesigns are absolutely gorgeous and are extravagant yet logical. the character selection is vast and includes a wide array of fun, and interesting characters. However, seeing characters like Kung Jin, Cassie Cage, Takashi Takeda, and Jacqui Briggs in the game instead of popular and fan-favorite characters like Noob Saibot, Cyrax, Sektor, Kabal, and Smoke feels wrong as they tried to hard to be different. I understand not wanting to put in all the cyborgs, but c'mon, at least one would've been nice. But the other original characters like Kotal Kahn, D'vorah, Ferra/Torr, and Erron Black are great additions to the universe. Now onto the gameplay, MKX took the classic MK gameplay and logically evolved and extended it to modern day capabilities. And the satisfaction of the bone crunching, muscle tearing, and testicle bursting x-rays are only topped by the satisfaction of seeing the screen go dark and watch as your character destroys your opponent in the even more gruesome and disgusting fatalities. The story mode is fun, imaginative, and a great way to fully grasp and introduce the characters. All in all, MKX is a welcome addition to the Mortal Kombat series that far exceeded my expectations and all I can do is thank Netherrealm and play more MKX.… Expand

    Fighting-wise it seems to be like the old Tekken games. One button for each hand one button for each leg. X-ray attacks look awesome. Some of the fatalities are incredible. Brutalities are back and are a lot of fun.

    Online play seems to be hit or miss. I'm wireless and haven't have any connectivity issues, but opponent quality is all over the place. The 5 factions for online play are a good idea in practice but don't seem to be great in reality because so many people just pick the same one or two. The "Faction Kill" fatalities that are introduced are mostly mediocre.

    Story-wise, you can beat the story in a couple hours, but it is really well-done. Good cinematics, and a good way to learn how to use some of the new characters as well as to play some of the older characters.

    The re-done Krypt is awesome and worth exploring for unlockables and there are a few surprises in it to keep you paying attention.

    Overall the game is awesome, plays great, good level interaction in every stage. My only real issue with it is several characters who are in 9, living or dead don't make an appearance outside of NPC status in the story or as opponents in the story and will likely be pay-to-play at some point. Some of my favorite characters are unplayable because of this. There's really no real reason to do that besides a money-grab. AI seems to be VERY noticeably different on each difficulty (stick to medium if you're average), and the final boss in the storymode's ending and at the end of the Klassic Tower is a little overpowered but not to the point where it's unbeatable, you just have to be smart.    … Expand

Offline players will have the story mode, however short, local multiplayer of course, and towers. There are classic towers - ten fights against increasingly difficult opponents, Test Your Luck towers, my personal favourite, where every fight has random modifiers thrown in to make it more chaotic, and living towers, that change constantly as long as you have an internet connection (PS Plus isn't required here, to my knowledge). You'll also be able to join a faction. Pretty much everything you do earns points for your faction, and the faction with the most points at the end of a certain amount of time gets big rewards. If you have PS Plus, you'll get all of what you've come to expect from an online fighting game - 1v1, King of the Hill and stuff like that, along with some new game modes like online Test Your Luck. I haven't experienced much lag or any disconnects while online, but there are quite a few spammers and other unfair players that will ruin your match. As for characters, there are around 29, new and old, which doesn't seem like too many at first, but each character gets three variations, essentially tripling that number. If it still isn't enough, more can be obtained via DLC, including old favourites like Tanya, and licensed characters like Predator. Overall a great game that I'd absolutely recommend.… Expand

    The visuals and sound really give every move a visceral feeling. It feels like you're doing some serious damage when you connect with moves. The animations are great, the stages and characters look awesome. The gameplay is really good. Doing damage mostly relies on executing combos. The execution here is somewhat challenging, but doable with practice, and it's    So much fun.

The execution here is somewhat challenging, but doable with practice, and it's rewarding as hell to land 40%+ combos in an online match. All of the 29 cast members have a unique identity, and most seem to be somewhat balanced and viable in the pro scene. NRS continues to be active in patching and balancing.

    The fatalities are great and the brutality system is an awesome addition that allows you to end matches with some style. NRS really went the extra mile here and gave each character two fatalities and 5+ brutalities.

    I had a lot of fun just playing single player and getting some of the unlockable skins, and have played over 1000 matches online. I'm taking off 1 point since the netcode seems to have some inherent lag even when playing under near-optimal conditions, and since matchmaking can be a little wonky.

I have been playing this franchise since I was only 4 years old. I used to play Mortal Kombat 2 that released in 1993 and have been in love with this game since then and I can undoubtedly say that Mortal Kombat X is the best Mortal Kombat game series.
    This game has so much to offer, every character has different moves, different style, amazing fatalities, different combat experience and this time they have even introduced new characters and they completely fit it this franchise. New characters like D'vorah and Kotal Kahn are so amazing and give such a fresh look to this franchise.
    But there are things that really bothers me and the first is the DLC. It so damn expensive, I mean who would pay $5 for 1 character. And in this game Goro is not there, I mean its in the Disc but if you want to play as him then you have to buy another DLC. Its really bad that you have to pay to unlock the character that is already in the disc.
    Now the second thing that really bothers me is the story mode. When it starts you may think it looks amazing but after few minutes it gets so boring and makes you wanna quit the story mode. Its like first they designed the characters then the stages then they are trying to somehow fit all of that in the story.
    I have the Mortal Kombat X Special Edition and expect the design of the box there is nothing special. If you buy Special Edition you can see the design that it has Scorpion on its back and that looks really amazing but with this disc, you will get a free DLC of Goro and Scorpion skin that is already available on PS Store for free so I don't get it why they put the Scorpion Skin DLC in the first place.
    So the final verdict for this game is that this game should be in your shelf if you like fight style games, but if you are a kid they won't buy it because it contain really graphical fatalities that is not suitable for children.    … Expand

    This is by far the best Mortal Kombat game I have ever played. From the bone shattering x-rays to the bloody Fatalities. It have been best if they did not have a list of combos to where everytime you fight, you have to pause your game!!!!!!!!! 9/10.

    MK X is arguably the best entry in the series ever made. It's certainly the bloodiest and best looking of the bunch. Visually, the graphics are astounding and the gore more graphic than ever before. However, it's the gameplay that takes center stage. This is the best "Mortal Kombat" has ever been. It's less classic than the 2011 MK and more of an evolution for the series. Series fans willMK X is arguably the best entry in the series ever made.

    a game that makes history, a solid team that always surprises, although my favorite will always be mk 9, it would have been wonderful to keep the possibility of playing 2 against 2, this would be my only criticism.

    The Gameplay is simply amazing. The fighting is top notch and one of the best fighting in gaming.
    The mechanics are a bit heavy but they are still good.
    You have a lot of different variety for each fighter to try and master, amazing combos, great fatalities and X-ray combos.
    - Map design is great.
    - Multiplayer suffers from lag issues but still wroth playing.

    The main bad issue here is the Story/Campaign mode:
    It silly and dumb, you fight the elder god Shinnok with Casey Cage, LOL.
    The whole events sound so cheap and predictable, nothing worth playing just skip the story line. but this makes the game lose some points. As a fighting game it gets a minor pass on being a bad story, but the campaign is bad and this cannot be ignored.

    Overall its the best Mortal Kombat game.

    I really enjoyed playing Mortal Kombat XL

    I have enjoyed the series ever since the first game back in the 90;s and the latest version is really good with a lot of work on the game play and combos. The only play and towers expand the longevity There's nothing like being able to do a finisher when you win a game online,

    I love each character and all the moves they are able to do. Tho the only thing I don't like about the characters is that the female characters are overly sexuallized like they were specifically designed for the male players.

    Very good and solid mk game. Gameplay is nice and fast paced, the story is great, not a big fan of the art and animation but it suffices. The final boss is so **** cool and the online was good but I remember it being very laggy at times. The factions stuff with the online was cool but wasn't needed. Overall this is a good mk game but a bit of a step back from mk9.

    While it is not as good as Mortal Kombat 9, it is still very well deserved sequel with great gameplay, better graphics, a fantastic story and soundtrack, and overall a worthy sequel to MK9 that is worthy as a PS4 sequel.

    This game is super fun, 5050s are a bit too much.

    Always hop on and enjoyed it for a long time.

    But holy fxck, who tf is this crackhead Goro player called cbass slayer. Plays like a fxckin italian plumber, guy rolls his ballsack on the controller and somehow it works. Good thing I alwayd beat Exohydras bum ass son, mf has autism thinking Jason is hard Whatever

    No fighting game can compare to MK for me, the characters are amazing, story is great and gameplay fantastic, my favorite fighting game franchise for sure. However wish they put out less DLC or at least made it a little less expensive.

    The violence is way over the top, so it can't be and shouldn't be taken seriously. Otherwise it's a very solid game with demanding fights.
