[YuSuzzune]

Can you play the single-player campaign?

 

[dancingphlower]

I'm curious how well these free weekends go for developers. Like how many sales do they get from people who try the game and get hooked enough to buy the full game?

 

[Rocketz]

Seems like all platforms

 

[Knight in Shining Armani]

I'll download it and delete it an hour later. Why not.

Kinda disappointing after the free play for Injustice 2 but again it's relatively new

 

[Deleted member 11637]

Oh snap, I'd want to mess around with the Switch version (but filesize might be an issue.)

 

[DrHercouet]

I swear to god, everytime I see "MK11" I think "Mario Kart 11" and my brain freezes for a second, part confused, part angry at having missed the 9th and 10th entries.

 

[BigHatPaul]

I'm curious to know if after the trial does your progress carry over?

 

[Hentailover]

I don't really care for story mode, will ti require ps+ for online?

 

[Piccoro]

Nice!
Haven't bough it yet because the game is expensive AF.

 

[hussien-11]

Why not? I will try both PS4 version and Switch version.

 

[SnatcherHunter]

Nice! Looking forward to new faces this weekend.

 

[LakeEarth]

Great, on Thanksgiving*, the one weekend where I won't be home the entire time. Awesome!

Give it a try. So far this is my GOTY. There is tons of content and the fighting engine is rock solid.

I don't know if this trial will be available on all platforms. The press release only mention PS4 and Xbox One.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios will be offering a Free Trial Weekend for Mortal Kombat 11 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One from Oct. 11-14. With new downloadable content (DLC) fighters and various updates available, this is the perfect time to jump into Mortal Kombat 11, the No. 1 selling console game in the U.S. year-to-date*.

During the Mortal Kombat 11 Free Trial Weekend, players will have access to the following content:

• All multiplayer game modes
• First two chapters of the cinematic Story mode
• Full base game roster of iconic characters
• Preview of recently added Kombat Pack fighters within the Towers of Time mode, including the Terminator T-800 from the upcoming Skydance and Paramount Pictures film, "Terminator: Dark Fate," along with Nightwolf and Shang Tsung

Please note, a PlayStation Plus subscription or Xbox Live Gold membership is required to participate in online multiplayer matches during the Free Trial Weekend. These subscriptions are not required to download the trial or enjoy single player content. Player progress will also carry over to the full game, if purchased, and as an added bonus, all versions of Mortal Kombat 11 will be 40 percent off in the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Marketplace during the Free Trial window, including the Standard Edition, Premium Edition and standalone Kombat Pack.

There so many games coming out the next 2-3 weeks and they go and do this, I've only got so much money 😢

 

[ShinUltramanJ]

I'll check it out, but I've heard it's a grind fest loaded with microtransactions.

That shit has being waaaaaaaaaaaay toned down

 

[Shopolic]

Is there any countdown for this?
My internet speed is so low and want to start downloading it as soon as possible!

 

[Tyaren]

Oh, what people that already own the game, will they be able to play with the new DLC characters as well in that time frame?

 

[Neoxon]

I don't know if this trial will be available on all platforms. The press release only mention PS4 and Xbox One.

The trailer also only mentions PS4 & XB1.

 

[fadedbones]

Makes sense to only do PS4 AND XB1, the Switcg verison would actively push people away.

Good they're doing this I guess but the Switch version sucks still.

 

[martincrimson87]

This 2nd class citizen treatment was brought to you by Netherrealm studios. Netherrealm: "We couldn't care less about PC gaming"

I'll check it out, but I've heard it's a grind fest loaded with microtransactions.

Is not. Granted, grinding could be an issue if you play wanting to unlock that one specific piece of gear or skin yeah, especially because some are tied to specific modes during specific times.

But in general, you will be earning stuff left and right.

Microtransactions are relatively tame all things considered. Time crystals to get some specific stuff from the Premiere Store which rotate every 24 hours (stuff that can also be earned playing the game) or Easy Fatality Token, both are also earned by playing the game.

Thanks .

 

[StarPhlox]

Excited to try this just to see how much I fucked up by getting the deluxe version on Switch:D

 

[jett]

When's NRS going to stop treating PC users like second-class citizens?

It's fairly grindy, nowhere near as bad as it was at launch though.

The MTX barely affects anything and is just there because gotta have MTX.

The grinding has been toned down significantly, thank fuck. The last patch even made character towers much, much more manageable and skins are pretty easy to get now :)

 

[scrapple]

just make it $19 and we will buy it (or wait for black friday)

 

[Slayven]

I might try it, but I usually play skill based fighters

 

[RestEerie]

how big is the game?

 

[The Turbanator]

PS4 and XB1 only

They really don't want me to even give it a chance, do they?

When's NRS going to stop treating PC users like second-class citizens?

Click to shrink...

When we forgive them for that putrid pile of rot they called the MKX PC port.

Which will never happen, at this rate.

 

[Gush]

Probably never at this rate. Ed Boon himself swore this time around would be different, yet here we are.
