    An excellent fighting game with fantastic functions and features for those who both love Mortal Kombat games as well as bringing in more than previous entries such as cameo fighters or Kameo Fighters as their called in which you can play with so many new functions that look to improve performance and help the learning curve to give people more to look forward too. The story mode offers so much fun and epic storytelling in addition to the fights that allows you to experience a great cinematic story that offers a love letter to MK fans and newcomers too the story. Overall this is one of the Best fighting games of this past year. Its not like other MK games it won't be for everyone but whats here is definitely appetizing.

    Story mode was incredible. Gameplay is smooth, the pace is nice. Not too fast and not too slow. Feels like an in between of 9 and X. No character variations, which I think is for the best. Invasions Mode is a nice little way to keep you playing for in-game character specific cosmetic options and new Brutalities and Fatalities. The mode has its own little flaws but it will be tweaked with every season, so I expect it to be better every time of NRS listens to fans. Loved getting my copy from BestBuy because the steelbook was beautiful. I like it better than the version that came with the Collector's Edition.

    MK is back to the roots but not without some bugs and problems. The graphics are great but more importantly the gameplay is fun! The best part about this game is the single player mode and story. The online is very laggy and match making is questionable at best. I have not been match with anyone on my skill level and get totally destroyed when playing online. The input lag online is difficult to overcome if you're sensitive to that type of thing.

    The game is Awesome! The graphics look amazing. The gameplay is great. Premium edition is overpriced though at $99.99. I believe Premium should cost $80 & standard should be $60. I mean come on. If you add an additional $100 dollars to $99.99, you can buy a whole new system like the Nintendo Switch lite. Games are too EXPENSIVE these days. But overall the game is fun and beat the story mode in 2 days.

    Super Fun Game To Play

    Who doesnt like Mortal Kombat? Its been around since i was a kid playing Mortal Kombat on the SNES. I really enjoyed playing the game with my wife and my kids. The only reason why im giving this 4 stars instead of 5 its because im being picky about the Cameo of Homelander, PeaceMaker, Omni-Man etc they wont be getting released till some random time in 2024, i bought this Ultimate Edition thinking i would get these characters unlocked right away. As i went back to youtube looking at the ad, i see in Tiny letters that these special cameos will not be released till 2024. Its hard to see that on a smartphone screen, i had to watch the ad on my 83" OLED tv in order to see the tiny letter lol! My mistake on not reading that. Either way the game is super fun and i highly recommend this Ultimate edition because you will eventually get these special cameo characters, i hope that they get the license to make them a playable character like they did with the previous games, getting Freddy Krueger, Terminator, Rambo, RoboCop etc as playable characters.

    This game is fun and the roster is perfect! However, the online has its issues such as random black screens and terrible connection, even if the person is within the vicinity. I think with a patch, it could be amazing! No other complaints though!

    Great game! The Steelbook collector case is awesome too, However, the incredible game and extra case (plus DLC) are still not worth the price they charge. If you're not into all the extras or on the fence, I'd get the standard edition. You can always typically add the DLC later online.

    Entertaining and fun. Beat story mode once and it was interesting to see different origins to these characters. After, Ive been taking my time with this game but enjoying it so far discovering all the special features. The Van Damme skin is awesome!

    It’s like they took us through all the old games right in to Armageddon in on story line. The graphics are amazing, fatalities are all new, really enjoying the invasion mode it’s like a new look on the krypt.

    This is an awesome and fresh take on Mortal Kombat. The kameo system is a little odd though and some of the game features/modes are pretty basic. I feel MK11 had more kontent as of now.

    They brought back story mode. The fatalities are very detailed and awesome to watch. They even brought back test your might from the first mortal kombat in a few places in story mode which was nice to see.

    Its the newest Mortal Kombat and story wise its a reboot/sequel after the events of MK 11. Lots of cool side stuff to do rather then just fighting highly recommended.
