God that MK movie theme song is so damn hype and the way it syncs with the hits and impacts in the trailer was so good.

I've never discovered a Fatality or remembered how to use one, but I love you Mortal Kombat. I will buy on Switch!

This trailer was surprisingly good. The music definitely gave me the feels. I wasn't at all interested in the game, but I kind of am now. The story looks like it could be interesting.

It's been a LONG time since I've played a MK game, and I didn't really pay attention to what little story there was when I did. So I'm a little confused by the trailer. It seems like Sub-Zero and Scorpion aren't enemies anymore (they're walking side-by-side) and neither have masks. What's the deal with that?

So I want this game but I kinda hate fighting games and almost always regret buying them. I'll wait for a bit when it is a little cheaper.

Scorpion came back to life, adopted a kid, rebuilt his clan, and really chilled out (mostly). As for Sub-Zero, it's the younger brother of the Sub-Zero from MK1. He took over the clan and actively sought to try and make them a force for good, while trying to make up for the evils they did in the past.

Now Scorpion goes by his his real name, Hanzo.

Damn, that is a crazy amount of stuff that happened.

Can someone explain what the significance is of Cyrax and Sektor? The last MK I played was MK9 (barely) and even though I really enjoy the series I haven't a clue when it comes to the lore.
They are huge fan favorites so it's natural that people would freak out at seeing them in story mode and hope that they'll be DLC. It's got nothing to do with the lore, they're just beloved characters.

Top tier fatalities this time around., especially after watching Steve, Kenny, and Max go through all the fatalities in the series.

Mick Gordon remixes all the original MK songs to new MK.

Ah so I guess it's to do with the fact that they weren't confirmed to be part of the roster until recently? They were also in the last game no?

Not confirmed to be in the roster at all. People were just surprised they were even in the story mode at all. People only saw glimpses of the cyborgs in previous teasers.

They actually aren't part of the roster. Since they have new models people are hoping they'll be DLC. They were DLC in MKX as part of Triborg.

Honestly, the PC ports have been GREAT since they've has gone with their new PC port studio, QLOC.

And NRS's netcode is arguably the best in the business right now.

MKX was fixed after they took over, Injustice 2 was great, and while nothing is guaranteed, MK11 is in very capable hands on PC.

It's quite a shame they wasted money and lowered the quality of the game/character by getting Rousey.
Turns out all they really needed to do to get people hyped was use this theme song in a trailer.

Scorpion didn't adopt a kid, he was just asked by Kenshi to look over Takeda.

How are the PC versions generally?

Also, how much solo content is there? More than just the story mode, yeah?

preload is up on steam 60.2GBs

mk9 was alright, injustice 1 had a few transitional issues, mkx was a travesty at launch but all 3 of these were done by high voltage studio.
Qloc took over and fixed MKX, and delievered a great injustice 2 port, they are the ones doing mk11 so I think it will be a decent port.
outside of storymode, there is usually towers and living towers which update, hourly, daily, weekly, usually test your might/sight mini games, the old school arcade mode which usually gives a non canon story board after completion. and of course there is usually a krypt with lots of unlocks varying from concept art, music, skins, other fatalities.

Just preordered my PS4 copy on Amazon. It'll take a little bit to get here in Japan, but I'm hyped.

I loved MK9, and played quite a bit of MKX, so 11 is a no-brainer for me.

Can't believe the mad men actually remixed the old song. I've wanted it in a trailer since that damn 21 Savage track in the first CG trailer.

MORTAAAL KOOMMMBAAAATT!!!
