Mortal Kombat continues to set the gold standard for fighting games. The latest entry offers a fluid combat system that balances accessibility for newcomers with deep technicality for veterans. The graphics are stunningly detailed, making every punch and kick feel impactful. While the gore isn't for everyone, the cinematic story mode and the variety of iconic characters like Scorpion and Sub-Zero make it a must-play for fans of the genre

I’ve always been a MK fan, all the way back to the original arcade game. As soon as I heard they were releasing this version, I was very excited to get my pre order in. So far, I’m underwhelmed. The story and voice acting isn’t great - even though expectations are always low here. The graphics are great but nothing that shows next gen qualities. The small character line up is disappointing. The controls are pretty much the same as we're all accustomed to. This almost got a 3 star review but I haven’t put enough hours in to justify a lower rating. I have put in enough hours to justify not putting in a higher rating. I would still buy this game but would have waited for it to go on sale.

I finished the story mode like a maniac in about 7 hours. It's like watching a great long movie and fighting in between, and I did not want it to end. The writers are super talented and the graphics impeccable.

An overall fun game. Ive been playing it for hours and it feels both newcomer friendly and ive heard its also pro friendly. As a newcomer to fighting games its just been a ton of fun. The story is great, and the new invasions mode is a blast. With past fighting games i just playwd local with my brother but ive actually really been enjoying my time with this game and i think others will too

Mortal Kombat 1 on PS5 is a solid entry in the series, but it has some notable flaws that hold it back from being truly great. The gameplay mechanics are tight and fast-paced, and the Kameo system is a game-changer that elevates the combat. The story mode is a lot of fun, and the graphics are impressive on the PS5 hardware. However, the load times can be long and slow down the pace of the game, and there are also a number of bugs and glitches that can be frustrating. Overall, it's a good game, but not quite the flawless victory it could have been.

Overall good game, lots of fun on the gameplay side with your creativity, fluidity, and combos. Story is decent but plays a role in giving a nostalgic feeling. Besides that though, the game currently feels incomplete. Invasions while already going to be grindy, feels like a hassle. The level up system is a long and tedious process. There will be more functions added down the line but currently there are missing spaces and oversights needed to be touched up on. If you enjoy the game for the gameplay though, then youll have a good time now

This game is awesome. It has a Kool story mode and the fatalities are Crazy. I love how the characters has a personality and they’re not too serious like some of the other game. I highly recommend this game. You won’t be disappointed and if you are there is probably something wrong with you.

Has a hug variety of game modes and extras. Story mode is pretty fun, with a nice reset but also holding a few ties to the prior timeline. The different gear and costumes make for good replayability. It's a little too complicated with the plethora of characters and combo ability. If you run across someone who really knows what they're doing, you'll be watching yourself get combo'd to heck, 1/3 of your life bar at a time. It's difficult to learn a meta with so many characters out of the gate.
