About the game
Players all start out with the same equipment and form, much of which can then be customized to suit their preferences. The appearance of the avatar has no bearing on the abilities of the character, so a player can bring all their aesthetic tastes to bear without making their avatar weaker or less capable, unlike in some other games.
There is a total of twenty-five playable characters, many with fascinating and compelling back stories, which gives every player plenty of choice when it comes to looks, aggression, deffence and so on.
Time Travelling Fun
The main feature of this version of the Mortal Kombat timeline is the time travel element. This is ideal for older players who get a nostalgic glimpse into previous games, while newer players get to see old storylines rewind and work out differently. This fascinating features leads to some very different outcomes – and different outcomes than those desired by the players too!
In order to earn enough points for upgrades and access to locked areas, players might find that some grinding is necessary. Grinding is repeating tasks or going over old missions in order to gain experience points or other benefits. However, this can be enjoyable, especially repeating easier missions with new powers: old enemies are splattered with joyful ease!
Last Resort Death Knell
One new modification in this game is the introduction of Fatal Blows. These are not available all the time, only being usable once your health level as dropped to dangerous lows. They are a sort of last resort, a final flourish to attempt to get your opponent before he or she finishes you off.
The offence and deffence metres are now separate, so you can boost your offence to make an attack particularly strong or you can boost defence for cunning roll-escapes or counterattacks without using up too much power. Tutorials will quickly and easily talk you through using these new features, and you’ll be fighting your way to success in no time.
