“Mortal Kombat 1” trailer

Mortal Kombat 1 gameplay

“Mortal Kombat 1” provides players with a variety of game features. It includes story mode, online multiplayer with rollback netcode, and offline play. The game introduces Kameo Fighters to assist players in battle, each selected before the match. These warriors provide summons and ambushes, performing deadly and brutal acts. The chosen Kameo Fighter also affects the player’s health.

The critical strike, returning from Mortal Kombat 11, is a collaborative move with Kameo Fighters when the player’s health drops below 30%, with an X-ray effect. The aerial kombat combo system seen in previous games is back with a vengeance.

For single player, the game features a story mode and a traditional tower mode, with the addition of a seasonal invasion mode. Invasion combines fighting with board game and role-playing elements, requiring players to complete on-board challenges to earn rewards. Each invasion season lasts approximately six weeks, and each season has its own board and theme.

In multiplayer, players can enjoy local mode where they compete on the same console, online mode where they compete against global opponents, and tournament mode where tournaments are held using a unified ruleset.

Mortal Kombat 1 plot

After defeating Kronika and Shang Tsung, Liu Kang became the protector of the Earth Kingdom and formed an alliance with the outside world.

As the team uncovers Shang Tsung’s activities, they uncover a massive soul-stealing plot.

Faced with challenges and betrayals, they join forces with the outside world to thwart the wizard’s treachery. “The Rock” is revealed to be Shang Tsung from a previous timeline, designed to absorb Liu Kang’s timeline, leading to an epic battle. Through sacrifice and alliance, Liu Kang achieved victory, eliminated the threat, and prepared the world for future conflicts. In a post-credits scene, Titan Harvick vows to start a new, longer battle.
