The mode first debuted in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. Speaking of the Mortal Kombat roster, Kreate-A-Fighter should also return. Overall, the humor and variety offered through Mortal Kombat’s minigames is always welcomed, and we hope it makes a return. Each of these mini-games brings a bit of charm to the game and breaks up the repetitive nature of the staple modes. Plus, there are the other wacky modes that change the pace like Test Your Sight, Test Your Might and Test Your Luck. Plus, it was always interesting to see MK’s take on other games like Tetris or Mario Kart. Simply doing endless fights in Towers, campaign or multiplayer can get repetitive. Sure, mini-games don’t make or break a Mortal Kombat title, but they do add variety. However, Mortal Kombat 11 really fell flat in that sense.

In fact, Mortal Kombat: Deception even let you play chess. There was a time when players could get a break from ripping out each other’s spleens to break random objects. More mini-gamesĪnother feature that should make a big return for the next Mortal Kombat game is the ability to play unique mini-games. While The Great Kung Lao, stated to be Goro’s greatest rival, never actually appeared in any of the games, having the chance to finally play as the legendary fighter would offer players something brand new for Mortal Kombat 12. Liu Kang then approaches The Great Kung Lao and tells him that he is to train to be Kang’s champion.

Unlike the evil Shang Tsung, Liu Kang uses his new powers to create a better world. On the other hand, if you chose Liu Kang in the final fight, he gets Kronika’s hourglass. Needless to say, following the story with a plot that sees our heroes trying to rebalance the realms and stop Shang Tsung’s evil magic has been done before.

With all the power in the evil sorcerer’s hands and nobody to stop him, he crafts a reality where he conquers all the realms as a god and enslaves his former foes. If you aren’t as familiar with MK11’s Aftermath, the bad ending sees Shang Tsung finally defeat Liu Kang and take control of Kronika’s hourglass. And although it remains unclear which ending is canon, it makes far more sense to go with the happier outcome. Depending on whether you chose to play as Shang Tsung or Liu Kang, you could either get the “good” or “bad” ending. If you played the Aftermath DLC in Mortal Kombat 11, you know that there are two endings. A continuation of Mortal Kombat 11’s good ending to Aftermath I think I speak for most fans when I say that it’s time for tag team battles to make a kome-back in Mortal Kombat 12.

Although the feature became widely popular, it was glaringly absent from Mortal Kombat X and strikingly limited in MK11. The ability to select two fighters for a team battle made gameplay more strategical in that you had to down both opponents to win, and you could take advantage of double-team moves as well. This time, though, you could pick two fighters to switch back and forth between. For years, the staple mode of Mortal Kombat was the one-on-one fights.

However, another feature Mortal Kombat 9 brought to the series was the inclusion of tag team battles. In addition, new features like the X-Ray move and more realistic damage physics helped modernize the famed series and breathe new life into it. For example, the game’s campaign helped introduce a new audience to the MK universe by serving as a soft reboot for the original trilogy. When Mortal Kombat 9 hit shelves in 2011, fans and critics alike celebrated the game’s innovations that helped bring the franchise into the modern era.
