Mortal Kombat is a genre defining game which was an instant hit back when it was first released, players spent hours dueling with each other and battling out with their favorite characters. As the years passed by, the developers adapted the game and delivered the same amount of fun as its predecessors.

A game that is sold by the premise of blood spill and carnage, it has more than just that to offer. With memorable characters with a strong storyline at the back of it, Mortal Kombat found itself a large audience wanting to share in the fun of absolute mayhem and superhuman abilities.

The special thing about Mortal Kombat series is the characters and the fact that they aren’t one dimensional, characters range from absolutely evil to one of the purest-hearted in the gaming universe. Another thing to note is the character designs that are used which give each character a unique skill set that makes playing with them even more fun.

Fatalities though littered with gore, seem more like a statement showing off to your friends while holding their character’s spine in your hands or freezing them and shattering them into a million pieces.
