Mortal Kombat 11 (PS4 / PC / XB1)
“Finish him!!” Those immortal words have echoed from eleven brutal incarnations of this legendary game series, and they never get old. Having surpassed Street Fighter as the king of beat-’em-ups a long time ago, Mortal Kombat’s main adversary, the superheroic Injustice series, is ironically brought to us by the same developers… NetherRealm Studio. Forget the tights and capes though, MK11 has a point of its own to prove when it comes to ultra-violent fighting games.
Gaming Heaven
- Storymode features some mind-blowing cinematics – MK has never looked so good.
- Along with the single player story, here are various solo and multiplayer game modes to try out, including Krypt and Towers of Time.
- Littered with Easter Eggs to appease fans of the series, along with artwork to collect and new fatalities to master.
- The fighting is, as you would guess, more than up to the brutal and bloody standard you would expect of the franchise. However, it is now a more refined and tactical affair, which is no bad thing.

Gaming Hell
- Many of the characters follow the same fighting stance, meaning that while they are easy to learn, many are only cosmetically different.
