    MORTAL KOMBAT 11

    “GENUINELY CINEMATIC IN A WAY FIGHTING GAME STORIES JUST NEVER ARE.”

    The thing that’s always made Mortal Kombat stand out from its fighting game peers is spectacle. In 1992, that meant punching a guy so hard he exploded into five bloody ribcages (explain that, science).

    These days, it means best-in-genre story modes, gorgeous visuals, and… well, punching a guy so hard he explodes into one extremely detailed bloody ribcage. And for sheer spectacle, Mortal Kombat 11 is developer NetherRealm’s most impressive effort yet.

    This confident sequel makes no pretence of being the most precise or detailed fighting game around. Street for just about everyone else, providing one of the most welcoming ramps into fighting games ever made.
