ExploreSo, Mortal Kombat X came out a few weeks ago, and everybody is raving about the awesome new fatalities. It’s actually one of the oldest fighting franchises still around today, as the original Mortal Kombat was released in 1992, by MidWay Games. Next to Capcom’s Street Fighter, this is the most successful fighting franchise to date. It’s not as technical as Street Fighter, but it offers loads of fun with things like fatalities, animalities, babalities and even friendship endings.
Mortal Kombat X is the tenth installment of the game, and it was released by NetherRealm studios for Playstation 4, XBox one and PC on April 14th 2015. It’s not a very difficult game to play, but it is hard to master it, since each character has it’s own fighting style, weaknesses and advantages, and special abilities. You can now also interact with the environment, so you can grab a bystander and throw him at your opponent.
The game’s play modes include Story, 1 vs. 1 Ranked, King of the Hill, Survivor, and Test Your Luck. A new addition called Living Towers is an evolved form of Mortal Kombat’s Challenge Tower where the play conditions will be changing every hour. Another new mode is Faction Wars, where the players will have to choose one from the five factions (Black Dragon, the Brotherhood of Shadow, the Lin Kuei, Special Forces, and White Lotus) to align with and join a persistent online cross-platform competition with the others, winning points for their faction to contribute in the conflict between them, ranking up personally, and earning special rewards such as faction-specific finishing moves if the player’s faction win at the end of any given week.
There are of course a lot of familiar characters as well as several new ones. They all include a back story, and if you look closely, you can find a lot of cameos by old characters that aren’t playable in this installment. In the end it is an immensely fun game to play, which is why we’ve put together a list of some of the best Mortal Kombat t-shirts out there.
