Mortal Kombat 11 - Xbox ARGENTINA Digital Key
Mortal Combat 11 for PC is a 2.5D fighting game that marks – as the name implies
– an impressive twenty-seven years of Mortal Kombat. This not only gives players
gives a lot of and back story (especially new players) but it also means the
developers have had plenty of practise at making compelling and immersive
fighting games. This experience shows!
2D is, obviously, flat images having length and breadth. 3D offers depth
alongside, whether actual depth, as in real life scenarios, or simulated depth
for games and movies. 2.5D is when the illusion of 3D is offered on a 2D
platform, or when a game is sometimes 2D with some fully 3D features. This game
is the former.
About the game
Players all start out with the same equipment and form, much of which can then
be customised to suit their preferences. The appearance of the avatar has no
bearing on the abilities of the character, so a player can bring all their
aesthetic tastes to bear without making their avatar weaker or less capable,
unlike in some other games.
There is a total of twenty-five playable characters, many with fascinating and
compelling back stories, which gives every player plenty of choice when it comes
to looks, aggression, defence and so on.
Time Travelling Fun
The main feature of this version of the Mortal Kombat timeline is the time
travel element. This is ideal for older players who get a nostalgic glimpse into
previous games, while newer players get to see old storylines rewind and work
out differently. This fascinating features leads to some very different outcomes
– and different outcomes than those desired by the players too!
In order to earn enough points for upgrades and access to locked areas, players
might find that some grinding is necessary. Grinding is repeating tasks or going
over old missions in order to gain experience points or other benefits. However,
this can be enjoyable, especially repeating easier missions with new powers: old
enemies are splattered with joyful ease!
Last Resort Death Knell
One new modification in this game is the introduction of Fatal Blows. These are
not available all the time, only being usable once your health level as dropped
to dangerous lows. They are a sort of last resort, a final flourish to attempt
to get your opponent before he or she finishes you off.
The offence and defence metres are now separate, so you can boost your offence
to make an attack particularly strong or you can boost defence for cunning
roll-escapes or counterattacks without using up too much power. Tutorials will
quickly and easily talk you through using these new features, and you’ll be
fighting your way to success in no time.
Ways to play
Story Mode
As mentioned above, the back story for MK is now a long and complicated saga
worthy of publication as a standalone book or movie. Play through the game,
until you achieve one of the two official endings – or go off canon and make up
your own ending!
Combat mode
Blood splashes everywhere as you just enjoy the sickening but inventive ways to
paint the gore around, taking out everyone you see. Explore the open map to find
targets or follow the on-screen instructions, just taking your own blood-thirsty
time about it!
Krypt mode
This is more of a sub-game than a mode, and can save you some of the
above-mentioned grinding. Plunder the island for treasure and other loot,
smashing down walls and opening chests to retrieve gold and other valuables,
which can then be used to buy customised skins, weapons and gears, secret
entrances and even to modify AI behaviour in your own favour.
