By broadening their gameplay modes they open Mortal Kombat to a new audience while keeping true to their roots.
The tetris and chess modes were bold moves and smart moves.
The wife for the first time wanted to play Mortal Kombat...asked ME to play Mortal Kombat. We played tetirs kombat and eventually that led to her wanting to fight me, and with any combat game - the button mashing females get their share of wins :)
The graphics and 3D environments looked awesome in this one and the character list was somewhat small but satisfying enough.
The RPG aspect of the game is the best in series. It was a lot of fun developing the storyline and then being able to play with the finished product in versus modes was fun too.
As always the krypt was massive and there is a lot of time to spend just opening and unlocking graves.
The combat is very fun as usual. The game has a ton of replay value because of it.
This is one of those games I will probably still have when I am loading up my PS6. Fighting fans rejoice this game is everything it says it is.
