Fatalities, gore and brutal versus: from the first Mortal Kombat to Mortal Kombat II, the series marked the history of fighting games — and of censorship. RomWize re-ranks the best entries by its re-evaluated scores, each with its current score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition is the enriched version with all DLC including Freddy Krueger and Skarlet. The definitive version of the best Mortal Kombat in years with all available additional content. Essential for fans."
"Mortal Kombat is the masterful saga reboot with the alternative history of the first three arcs. Epic cinematic story mode, Krypt, Towers. Deepest combat gameplay in years. A franchise MK peak."
"Mortal Kombat 11 pairs theatrical gore with a fighting system of surgical precision. The Fatalities stay gleefully obscene, but it's the offensive and defensive meter mechanics that hold serious players. On Switch it runs better than anyone feared."
"Mortal Kombat Trilogy is the ultimate compilation of Mortal Kombat's 2D era, gathering all characters from the first three entries. Impressive complete roster with Fatalities, Brutalities and Animalities. A must for classic MK fans seeking the most complete 2D experience on PS1."
"MK franchise surprise: a side-scrolling beat'em up with Kung Lao and Liu Kang in the Mortal Kombat universe. The Streets of Rage approach in the MK universe with bloody combos is successful. An original and enjoyable title taking the franchise off the beaten path."
"First Midway Mortal Kombat in 3D, the formula reinvented after the 2D golden age. Solid roster, signature brutality intact and spectacular fatalities. Technical polish still wanting but it puts the franchise back on the rails. Pleasant without more."
"Direct sequel to Deadly Alliance, denser and slyer. Surprising Konquest adventure mode, sharpened combat mechanics and a wider roster. Still not the 2D peak but clearly the strongest 3D MK formula of the time. For series fans."
