Mortal Kombat X is a fighting video game developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It is the tenth main installment in the Mortal Kombat series and the sequel to the 2011 game, Mortal Kombat.
The game features a diverse roster of characters, including returning favorites like Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Raiden, as well as new fighters such as the insectoid D'Vorah and the cowboy gunslinger Erron Black. Each character has their own unique move set and fatalities, including brutal finishers that showcase the game's visceral and gory combat.
One of the game's standout features is the Variation system, which allows players to choose between three different versions of each character, each with their own specific moves and abilities. This adds a level of depth and customization to the game's already robust combat system.
Mortal Kombat X also introduces several new gameplay mechanics, such as environmental interaction and the ability to run in and out of the background. Players can use objects in the environment to gain an advantage over their opponents, such as throwing barrels or launching missiles.
In addition to the game's single-player story mode, which features an original narrative that takes place 25 years after the events of Mortal Kombat (2011), the game also features robust online multiplayer modes. Players can compete in ranked matches, join factions to earn rewards, and participate in special events and challenges to unlock new content.
Overall, Mortal Kombat X is a must-play for fans of fighting games and the Mortal Kombat series, featuring stunning graphics, fluid gameplay, and an expansive roster of fighters to choose from.
