    What a disappointing entry in the MK franchise!

    A lot of fan favourites are missing (Mileena, Rain, Sindel, Smoke...). The story is abysmal, makes no sense at all and effectively destroys the entire lore of the last 27 years.

    The story is abysmal, makes no sense at all and effectively destroys the entire lore of the last 27 years. Also pushing you personal political agenda with certain tower endings is just disgusting. The developers lied about certain aspects (all characters in the story will be playable, there will be unlockable characters, they will listen to the fans and include all the fan favourites...)

    Most importantly however: The developers showed how much they disrespect/hate one of the biggest fan favourites (Mileena) and her fanbase. They didn't include her in the game and mocked/ridiculed her fans for telling NRS how much they want their favourite to be a part of the new installment.

    Don't buy games from developers who lie to you, mock/ridicule their own fanbase and put wokeness above character consistency.    … Expand

    Also, forcing your personal political agenda has no place in a MK game or in any game for that matter. Some tower endings are just the wet dreams of SJWs.

    Absolute garbage, pay2win, a total waste of money. Why?
    1. Predatory monetization: Extremely grindy in an unfair way designed to make you spend real money.
    2. Missing fan favorite characters like Smoke, Reptile, Mileena etc.
    3. SJW/Feminist/Political agenda forced into the game.

Yes, I do miss the days of the open 3D fighting world that MK brought us into after MK 4, but I have loved every new version of MK that has came out since 2011. That being said I am in love with this new game, the graphics are definitely not as good as the other console versions, but this is a MOBILE GAME. The Switch is running a MOBILE GRAPHICS CHIP. You should know by now what to expect from this console. Educate yourself before you make a purchase! This is 2019, you have the internet, look up freaking screenshots. This is the BEST looking MOBILE fighter I have ever played, all of the features from the other consoles are here, it's amazing. This is literally what I asked for. The game is just as brutal as the other versions but some decrease in fidelity, (which considering how graphic the game is, really isnt a bad thing for me personally.) Honestly the decrease in realistic graphics makes this feel more like i am playing a video game rather than watching real people be brutally murdered. LOL. (Odd point to make I know) If you are a Mortal Kombat fan and you own a Switch and want to play this on the go, get this version!!! It has all of the features as the others, same fatalities and same frame rate...I am in shock over how fluid it plays....Support developers bringing more games to Nintendo Switch, they deserve props for doing such amazing job. BTW, this IS NOT A PORT. IT WAS RELEASED AT THE SAME TIME AS THE OTHER CONSOLES, A PORT IS WHEN A GAME THAT HAS BEEN RELEASED IS "PORTED" TO ANOTHER PLATFORM, MONTHS OR YEARS AFTER ITS' INITIAL RELEASE!!! GEEZUS!!!!! I am giving this a 10 to balance out reviews. Although I would rate the Switch version a solid 8.5 a 1 point decrease from my rating for the other versions because, yes, in reality the graphics are lesser in quality when compared to the more powerful consoles, because once again it is a MOBILE GRAPHICS CHIP, (I am still impressed though).

Instead of scummy practices like forcing you to just buy everything, which would honestly be preferable because at least you can just get what you want, you instead have to buy currency and still go through this grind. It's crazy, and it justifies a 0 score because this is unacceptable, anti-consumer garbage that took the wind out of my sails. I've been a fan of Mortal Kombat since 1996, and here I am saying this has killed all my interest.

    Bought this game after seeing those reviews on YouTube about 60 fps on the switch. Yes it is 60 fps but only on some stages. Most of the time the frame rate is dropped too much that I cannot do a simple combo (please note that I can deal with Hard mode AI on the non-lagged stages). Everything is even getting worst on the final boss fight with tons of lagging. Disappointed...

    What do you get with the Switch in terms of technical performance?
    Some fatalities appear too look horridly flat textured etc..

    But all round, this is a highly playable and respectable version of the game if you intend to use it portably. Though you will suffer some crash and stuttering hick ups. Ultimately there will be no better portable version of this anytime soon (and a potential upgrade Switch en-route should solve this games visual short comings)

    Ultimate verdict, Switch is a solid pass.
    But this game as a whole is advised to avoid purchase.
    One of the most expensive games I've bought in my life (got the deluxe) to leave me quite disgusted as a result

    Game is a clunky fighter with a character roster that at current doesn't appease me. The star feature of the game in the form of cinematic Krushing Blows and Fatalities get repetitive, can often look ridiculous in nature, and the games other combos and nuanced features are a serious challenge to pull off.

In fact, this was my first MK since playing 3 or 4 on the GameBoy Color ages ago. I was worried that this gameplay would be too inaccessible and challenging for me to enjoy, but I was wrong. Indeed, I'm not a competitive MK player by any means. I'd imagine about 90% of my experience with this game was the campaign and 10% was button mashing on the couch with friends. But for those two gameplay aspects for a casual player like me, this game was great. Yes, it was a pain to watch pre-rendered scenes morph into in-game engine on the Switch. I wasn't expecting much in that department, but it was even worse than I imagined. Still, gameplay is a lot of fun and the story mode was surprisingly engaging. I never got much into the customization aspects of this game and did not download the DLC, but honestly, I look forward to repurchasing the Aftermath Kollection on the PS4, mostly just to play through more story mode as well as to try the new DLC fighters. I'm surprised that this game has gotten so many negative user reviews and that it is often available at a dramatically steep discount. However, after perusing the negative reviews here, I see that its a mix of die-hard MK fans that are upset their favorite characters are in the game (understandable), a criticism of excessive microtransctions (I never felt compelled to purchase any, to be honest), and random creeps that are complaining that the game is to progressive/"SJW"? I don't even know where that stems from the gameplay to be honest, other than some of these reviewers probably projecting.
    Nevertheless, if you're a casual MK player like me, you'll enjoy this, especially after taking advantage of some of the steep discounts you'll encounter.    … Expand

While getting a game like this onto the Switch is impressive, it's completely held back by poor business practices and awful design choices. Costumes, Kombat Koins, and very odd Feminist-like agenda choices when it comes to the storyboard writing, and female costume design.

ONE LAST THING: Ed Boon clearly does NOT know of what he's talking about when he says something like "You don't wear a bikini in a fight!"....No sir, you wear the CLOSEST toThe creators made some of the worst decitions one can make when making a game, put micro-transactions on it and surrender themselves to the SJW repulsiveness. The game also lack some favourites like Mileena or Smoke. ONE LAST THING: Ed Boon clearly does NOT know of what he's talking about when he says something like "You don't wear a bikini in a fight!"....No sir, you wear the CLOSEST to it, like all the MMA pros out there that are ONLY ALLOWED to wear MMA shorts and MMA gloves as their ONLY clothes into a fight. So go do some research Mr. Boon, before you vomit some more useless verbiage and put yourself and your company to shame with your ignorance!… Expand

    The Switch deserved better, it deserve a version that could have looked better based on its hardware capabilities....instead we get a port of more powerful systems that only puts the switch version to shame.

    If you absolutely want a portable version of Mortal Kombat 11, this is a fine experience when it comes to the core gameplay.

    Fun, deep and full of content, Mortal Kombat 11 is a complete fighting package. However, little performance and aesthetic problems, as well as the reliance on an internet connection to play single player content, prevent the game from achieving its true potential on Switch.
