I know many don't appreciate long reviews but, it is necessary that I do so and go over some of the aspects of the game to remove your delimma of wether or not to buy this game.
Don't just go on the overall user reviews as they don't always tend to some individual's personal choices.

The gameplay is very fast paced and fluid, one of the many perks I enjoy. It has strong flexible combat, oh my bad, Kombat, and no playable character is too overpowered so as to not being able to kounter attacks, or block,etc. Although you might find most of the people using Scorpion as it is one the most easiest to use among all other characters (also that it is a on the cover poster of the game). All the playable characters have 3 different sets (with the exception of Triborg having a fourth one), the overall gameplay of a charater is same but each of the character type provides enough variety to play with and experiment. According to me this game has very good replayability, as it will easily take 50+ hours or so to completely master a player that too not entirely and come to think of it there are 25 players (where Goro was a preorder bonus, now added DLC) +8 DLC characters. Also the new level interactions added are very fluid in movement and use. The online lobby is a bit empty now, quite obvious as this game is already 2 years old, and mostly with experienced players, so you might have a hard time winning an online match.

X -Ray moves
The game has become quite famous because of the X-Ray moves, it is one of the example of the utter gruesomeness this game has to offer, if you have not seen a X-Ray move of this game before, I say you go and take a look on YouTube, if you are comfortable with it (or even enjoy it) this game will do you good. (Psst.. wanna learn skeleton structure and play at the same time, this game is your perfect goto guide)

Fatality/Brutality
Here we come to the most important part of the game, the finishers - Fatality/Brutality (Brutality has been added in this edition and did not exist earlier). This part of the game in its first installment was responsible for the birth of the ESRB rating. Although it were sprites that were used back then, now it is rendered graphics (And boy it looks yummy!), Go check it out first if you haven't already, it is excessively gruesome. If you love it, don't read much further buy the game!(well do read cause you might not find paying for additional players satisfactory) The fatality is quite easy to execute compared to the brutality which require a sequence of moves to be done during the duration of the match in order to execute it successfully, but boy it is satisfactory.

The game graphics are just marvelous, very realistic, bearing in mind it came out in 2015 (Please do not compare this statment to Crysis 3) The level design is very well done and the whole level as a good depth to itself. Even the texture details are well done. Also any blood splattered on the floor of the arena well be there till the end of the match. Compared to MK9 the human body is much more proportionate in this edition of the game. I recommend having a decently powerful machine (Please do not use a Potato PC) to enjoy the fluidity this game has to offer. Although it sucks that the game is locked in 60FPS.

I wouldn't say much over this point, but I would suggest that you buy the DLCs during the sale if you really want. I hate the fact that the MK frachise is trying to milk this game for money with DLC characters, so not happy here!

I really don't know what to say, if you enjoy fluid, fast, and gruesome gameplay, this is meant for you. If not then I really don't recommend it for you as you might just end up throwing up your intestines (actually happens in a Fatality)!

The game is amazing for an indie game! The quality of the game is marvellous! Amazing work done!
10/10 from my side!

Awesome game! Awesome singleplayer, multiplayer and extremely easy snapmap. Lived up to the hype! Would recommend to anyone.


Update: It has been more than a year since the game launched but bethesda has failed to provide a simple anticheat to the Multiplayer, really dissapointed.
