He specifically saidHe was asked about " if loot boxes are in" , and he said "no".
Are there any loot boxes ? no ? You dont buy any boxes or boxes gives you items.
You just buy virtual coin of game to buy things from Krypt like forever last game had this too
They're lootboxes in everything but name so him saying "or anything like that" then yeah, they're lootboxes.Any comment on what microtransactions will look like in MK11?
Yeah. Well, I guess you know, we absolutely divorced gameplay from any kind of advantages you could get. We really wanted to have it so you can't buy your way to a better character. And honestly, for this game, we're veering away from [that], we're not gonna have loot boxes or anything like that. So, that's big--it's more of an industry direction than it is a fighting game or Mortal Kombat direction. I think the loot boxes worked fine in Injustice because it didn't affect the gameplay and whatnot. But at the same time, we're just kind of steering away from it.
Him saying it's an "industry direction rather than a fighting game or MK direction" says a lot.
