Four years has passed since the revival of the last Mortal Kombat game in 2011, which set a new benchmark with the one-on-one beat ‘em' ups, not to mention that the gameplay was faster, fluid and smoother than ever before.

Fast & Fluid Gameplay; Enjoyable story (Although Short; Looks Great; Fulfilling Roster; 3 Fight Variations For Each Character; Packed With Online & Offline Modes; Loads Of Unlockable Rewards

Meaningless Microtransaction; Campaign Half The Length of MK9; Online Spammers; Flawed Rewards in Factions

There are only a small number of video game franchises that strike me with nostalgia and Mortal Kombat is certainly one of them. Picking up the controller I am almost instantly transported back to my 14 year old self. I'm in a dark arcade mercilessly yelling ‘FINISH HIM!

Mortal Kombat X is set to be 2015's fighting game of the year, with its robust story mode, immense character variation and tons of content.

Mortal Kombat has always been utterly bonkers, but if you'd told me in 1992 that I'd be performing quick-time event fights during cut-scenes of the story mode of MK, it'd have probably blown my young

Fast; smooth combat; Nicest visuals to date; Superb solo campaign

In-game purchases are in your face; Online isn't perfect; and is region locked on PS4; Fatalities may go too far for some

I wish I could give this review no stars. I was excited to open and play the game but to my surprise I was scammed! No game just an empty case. I unwrapped the case as if it were brand new to open it up to nothing inside!!!!!

There is so much material packed into Mortal Kombat X that even with a $60 price tag, there is value for the cost. Granted, much of the content relies on an Internet connection and if its poor in your area, the game might not sustain you as long as someone else with better Internet.

Anyone who was alive and gaming in the '90s, when Mortal Kombat was a legitimate cultural phenomenon, remembers how the franchise's savage ultraviolence felt dangerous and defiant.

The best new Mortal Kombat for years, with a fighting game experience that's as generous with the content as it is with the gore.

The OTT violence is gloriously varied and just tongue-in-cheek enough not to offend; Varied characters and disciplines, with plenty of game modes; Story mode and Krypt are especially good

The combat is still simplistic by fighting game standards and there are still almost no genuinely new ideas; Some ugly character art and a lack of explanation for different disciplines

Mortal Kombat X is the tenth version of the epic fighting game produced by NetherRealm Studios. It has been my favorite fighting game right after Tekken and they have proved why they are the best according to me. I got it one day after the release date (that's how much of a fan I am) and WHOA!!!

The graphics are incredible and the fatalities are like never before

The violence in this game is almost too much but its Mortal Kombat what would you expect

Much improved from the previous Mortal Kombat game and follows on in terms of story. Fighting mechanics also much improved and like how it's not simply a button mashing game. Wish the story was fleshed out more and the exclusion of some classic characters would usually disappoint but the new...
