The developers wanted to redefine the universe of MK. Therefore, they decided to thoroughly refresh it, including through the storyline and gameplay, as well as by introducing the so-called Kameo Fighters, who assist our main fighter in kombat.

Currently, the average score from critics on Metacritic is 86/100 for the PlayStation 5 version and 88/100 when it comes to Xbox Series X/S.

Recall that Mortal Kombat 1 hit PC (Steam, Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch. Let's point out that in the case of Steam and EGS, the official sale of the game will only start in a few hours (around 6 p.m. CET).

On Switch, the quality of graphics leaves much to be desired, as proven by the comparison video, on which Johnny Cage, in particular, does not look like he is in top form.
