The saddest part of this title is the extreme focus on its market. The development team did an excellent job immersing you into a universe of violence and crazy amounts of blood and gore. Basically, it is a movie that you watch that allows you to play through the key fights within the “movie.” As the campaign progresses, you play as different characters through the tied-in adventures that span across time and the Mortal Kombat universe. The campaign itself is an interesting take. It can slowly introduce new players to entire systems, or introduce veterans of the series to the new complexities presented within the title. Also, without a doubt, Mortal Kombat 11 has one of the best tutorials I’ve seen in a fighting game. I felt like I had true control over my characters and always wanted to get into the next battle. The characters react extremely well to being struck and the input feels tight, even in online play.

This puts an emphasis on knowing your character even more so than in the past entries and truly utilizes the skill needed to win each fight. Well-timed counters will usually result in an epic display of bones shattering or gore popping. No longer is the combat focused on “meters” for special moves. Everything feels a little slower than it did in Mortal Kombat X, but a plethora of new styles and chance encounters are introduced. The fighting systems in place are absolutely fantastic.

Along with this, the net code is a phenomenal feature within this title. This means that online fighting feels extremely smooth. Mortal Kombat 11 is locked at a thirty-frames-per-second timeline unless you play online or introduce the graphical setting of “frame skipping,” which skips certain frames during animations to double your FPS. Although this took away from the overall experience, the visuals within Mortal Kombat 11 are one for the books.Īs with many other fighting titles, the “logic” of the game is tied to its frame rate. During all cutscenes the audio was about a second faster than the actual video. With that said, I'm sad to say that I experienced a severe audio desync that even a reinstall did not fix. There was a distinct connection to the characters that I felt each time the “movies” would start. I was impressed by every moment of the storyline, especially in the graphics department. From combat to cutscenes, the graphics paint a beautiful representation of the Mortal Kombat universe.

The art and polish of Mortal Kombat 11 cannot go unnoticed. Sadly, this is all masked in a borderline mobile game system that forces you to observe several different currency systems and “konsumables” to be utilized throughout the title. Mortal Kombat 11 comes into the market hot with gore, violence, and an amazingly smooth fighting system. Twenty-seven years of kombat, millions of spines ripped, faces broken, and legs snapped.
