since midway closure i thought this game would suck and be completely different but i was wrong i haven't played mortal kombat since ps1 era when i was a kid
gameplay : is super responsive some characters are harder to learn than others
but my only complaint is that this game hold your hand a little too much because there is a tutorial menu to that will teach u how to do a fatality i remember back in the day that in ps1 and ps2 era [when midway was in still business before they went bankrupt] that u had to practice learning how to do a fatality during a practice mode or during a match only but my other 2 problem is that when midway sold the rights to wb they keep trying to squeeze in unnecessary characters that doesn't belong in the game like alien, kratos ,freddy krueger, predator and more. i think netherrealm captured the feel that the original games had
now online vs mode: first thing i think the server is quite bad because it takes an extremely long time on matchmaking to find a match or anyone to play with there was times i waited 10 mins+ until it found someone. in online mode it has
kill of the hill tag team and 1 on 1 king of the hill is fun as u can watch other players matches and pick an avatar so u know when who's up next to play and whoever wins the most keep the crown.
the only way to get klassic skins and any of alternate costumes is by going to krypt when its a 20/50 chance on founding it or beating a ladder mode [which i haven't played yet]
the story continues what happen in armageddon when raiden contacts his future self which this game takes place. Following the death of Blaze by Shao Kahn, all warriors from the realms have been destroyed, leaving only Raiden and Outworld emperor Shao Kahn remaining. The mortally wounded Raiden is unable to stop Shao Khan, who now possess power from the elder gods. Before being killed, Raiden uses one last spell to send a message to his past self through his shattered amulet, with the vague message "He must win."

During the events of the first tournament, Raiden sees visions of the future due to the message he received and notices his amulet has been damaged. Raiden concludes that Liu Kang must win the tournament to save Earthrealm. During the tournament, Liu Kang becomes the only remaining Earthrealm contender, due in part to Scorpion's murder of Bi-Han, in retaliation for the latter's massacre of the Shirai Ryu clan some years earlier. Liu Kang is successful in defeating the Shokan Prince Goro, as well as Shang Tsung. Raiden's amulet, however, cracks, a sign that future events remain unchanged. Disappointed with the sorcerer's failure, emperor Shao Kahn orders Shang Tsung's execution, but is convinced otherwise when the sorcerer suggests holding a second tournament in Outworld. Though initially refusing, Raiden relents when tarkatans invade Earthrealm as part of Shang Tsung's blackmail against Earthrealm.

During the second tournament, Kuai Liang, the younger brother of Bi-Han, the original Sub-Zero, and Smoke arrive to avenge his brother. They are followed by Lin Kuei cyber assassins Sektor and Cyrax who are tasked with retrieving the rogue warriors for cybernetic conversion. Raiden changes the timeline by rescuing Smoke, at the cost of Kuai Liang being taken away. Kitana, a long time servant of Shao Kahn, is compelled to join Earthrealm's fight after learning of the existence of her clone Mileena, created by Shang Tsung on Shao Kahn's orders, with Jade, Kitana's childhood friend, joining her later. In a bid to save Earth, Raiden substitutes Kung Lao in place of Liu Kang during the tournament. Kung Lao is subsequently killed by Shao Kahn, with Liu Kang retaliating and mortally wounding the emperor in a fit of rage. Raiden's amulet continues to deteriorate and he becomes increasingly concerned.

Shao Kahn is healed by sorcerer Quan Chi of the Netherrealm, at which point, the two realms enter into an alliance. Quan Chi also revives Shao Kahn's wife, Sindel. In doing so, the ward that prevents Kahn's access to Earthrealm is nullified and a full-scale invasion is authorized. Raiden saves Johnny Cage from certain death by slaying the centaurian Motaro. Joined by police officers Stryker and Kabal, Earthrealm fighters attempt to stop Kahn's invasion. Kahn dramatically enhances Sindel's power by sacrificing Tsung, taking the souls he has stolen for centuries and passing them to Sindel.

In the battle, many are killed by Sindel, and Kitana is brutally beaten. Before Sindel can kill her, Nightwolf intervenes and sacrifices himself in order to kill her. Raiden confronts Quan Chi and realizes that "He must win" refers to Shao Kahn himself; should Kahn conquer Earthrealm without victory in Mortal Kombat, the Elder Gods will punish him. Liu Kang, angered by the death of their allies, blames Raiden and goes to attack Shao Kahn. Raiden tries to stop Liu Kang, but ends up accidentally killing him in self-defense. Overcome with guilt, Raiden surrenders to Shao Kahn, at which point, the Elder Gods intervene, imbuing him with their power, which he then uses to defeat Shao Kahn for violating the Mortal Kombat code.

After Shao Kahn's death, Raiden vows to rebuild Earthrealm with Cage and Sonya Blade. Quan Chi, now shown to be an agent of Shinnok, reveals that the destruction of Shao Kahn and the weakening of Earthrealm by the death of their fighters was part of their plan to conquer all the realms for their own bidding.
which led up to mkx
now the 3d models it really looks like it's a direct copy and paste from dc universe vs mortal kombat game it even sort of plays like it as well minus the unique features that game had but anyway i like it the story but felt a bit average
