    Mixed bag

    Positives -I terms of raw gameplay the game is great, feels more fluid than Mortal Kombat 11 but not quite as fast as Mortal Kombat X or 9. -The kameo system so far is interesting and I look forward to testing out how each kameo compliments the main roster, and how good of a replacement it is for the variations system from 11 and X. -The story itself while following up on MK11, does some nice set up for the new status quo and has some good character moments here and there, with arcade endings acting as good epilogues. It probably has some of the best arcade endings in the series. Downsides -Very mixed performance on the switch, one way of alleviating this is to turn off replay sharing. There can also be instances where the game gets stuck just loading, it's happened twice so far during arcade runs. -Single player content is also very limited, the invasions mode is incomplete in this port so after story and arcade the only other thing to do is play online. -Online play is very unstable and disconnecting during a match will happen. Since online is also your main way of gaining xp for cosmetic unlocks, it should be noted it is very much a grind that will take a lot of time especially if you're not winning consistently. -This game is mostly absent from the cartridge, around 6 gb is on it with about a 30 gb download being required So, on a pure gameplay basis I can recommend this game, but probably not at this price point given the technical issues and lack of stuff to do.
