    This is a mortal kombat . Los diseños, las voces, muchos modos de juego y variedad de desafíos. Simplemente genial

    o modo história infelizmente não é dos melhores, mas a gameplay é uma das melhores, senão a melhor da franquia, ele tem gráficos lindos, dublagem excepcional.

    The graphics in this game and the level of detail is impressive, the gameplay well is the same as previous M.K. games. Although not my favorite M.K. game is pretty good added it has all the D.L.C and added content this game is the preferred version to get.

    Even though Im not a fan of the the darker and more desaturated look to the game, the fast and energetic gameplay more than makes up for it (also I thought the story mode was pretty alright)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love this brutal creativity. As a Mortal Kombat player for 3 years, I would say this is one of my favorite ones in the franchise. But It was missing something. The story had little info for some things/events (I haven’t played mk9 story). The gameplay seems different, not very different but something seemed out of place. The voice acting is great, and the idea of them talking to each other is even better. The fatalities/brutalities/etc are very creative, like a bit to in depth. The thing that made me disappointed is the alternative costumes. Some feel like a whole new character, others feel unfinished, and the fact we didn’t get costumes for dlc is even more insulting. The good thing is the amount of finishers, causing replay ability. 8/10 (Probably not a good first impression for fighting games). Expand

    Отличный файтинг, с множеством режимов для фана. Как по мне лучший файтинг на данный момент.

    Mortal Kombat XL es un juego que nos proporciona horas de diversión con el nivel de violencia esperado en un Mortal Kombat, sin embargo el roster del juego nos proporciona una amalgama de nuevos personajes que no nos interesan y obvia a algunos personajes clásicos de Mortal Kombat

    Aún con la cantidad de contenido que suma, se me queda por debajo del 9. Modos de juego offline algo escasos.

    I am a fan of MK since i was a kid. This is a game that perfectly presents the old characters. Half of the new charatcers are cool,and half aren't. But this is maybe the best MK game up to date.

    An outstanding game, tons of content, tons of game modes, hundreds of hours of fun.

    I love how character was looking in MK 9. In here they try to go realistic more then style and most of characters lost their charm. Story also not so interestin as in Mk 9. But anyway this is good game.

    MK XL is an absolute blast, so much fun and so easy to play.
    The story is really good because it adds background to many of the fighters so when you use them they're not just un-developed murder machines.
    With the sheer amount of fighters and content MK XL will keep you busy for hours, the extra characters are f'n excellent too. My only gripe is the Krypt and Koins and having to trawl

    Loved the story mode on this game, I also loved how the characters had their own personalities. I'm not going to lie, I love Sonya's tough-girl personality. I also loved the voice acting - sub zero's voice actor's got a great set of pipes!! Great writing, great voice acting, the only bad thing is the story's too short!!

    8/10 - Aunque la mecánica del juego era la esperada, he de decir que sentí monótono y repetitivo el modo historia, así como corto. Sin embargo me gustó bastante y sigue siendo de mis franquicias de combate preferidas. Partidas locales a dos jugadores excelente. Gráficamente genial y los efectos visuales de las fatalities muy buenos aunque algunos también algo repetitivos.

    A very good, fun to play fighting game which puts the atrocious SF V to shame.

    Lots of content in the XL version make it good value. Graphics are great with plenty of modes to choose from. I never actually liked MK games previously but this deserves recognition.

    Mortal kombat melhor jogo de luta somente apenas. 10 pra história que pra mim nem precisa ter, 10 pro gameplay, sucumba injustice..

    A blast to play! Mortal Kombat XL has a lot of fun and violence for your money, with all the additional characters (including Predator and Alien) and all the classic and gory gameplay we are used. With a robut story mode, a lot of collectibles and a lot of additional modes, this is one heck of a fatality to play.
    PS: Just one minor detail, even if easy fatalities are not that important,

    Con elementos superiores que incluso al MK11, como es la calidad y realismo de los fatalities, el número de personajes jugables y las opciones de doblaje.

    This is still that good fighting game from last year, without any significant additions nor massive changes besides new characters and cosmetics. With improved netcode and all balance fixes NetherRealm has released so far, Mortal Kombat XL is nearly a flawless victory.

    Mortal Kombat XL is the total package for newcomers, with a lot of content and fighters included. The first day fans however pay a hefty price to get all the new content.
