After finally completing the story mode of Mortal Kombat (2011). Moreover, learning about the ten-year Anniversary of its successor I figure well, I need to go back and replay a beloved sequel that has made everything better than I remembered in terms of giving Raiden much better combo moves, if you know what I mean. Though there are for certain a ton of great memories I have of the game in terms of the game’s promotion as well as a ton of new elements that still hold up.
Two years after the defeat of Outworlds ruler, Shao Kahn, Shinnok attacks Earth Realm with his army of NetherRealm demons, as well as Earth Realm warriors who were killed during Kahn's invasion and are now resurrected as revenants under Quan Chi's control.
I knew ten years ago I was planning on pre-ordering this game, but when the launch trailer came out and they included System of a Down's "Chop Suey" playing and it got me excited beyond measure that I even watched the trailer, multiple times. What really makes the MKX intriguing to play as well is a new set of characters such as Cassie Cage and Jacqui Briggs who are both the daughters of Johnny Cage, Sonya and Jax's, moreover brings something new as well as something exciting for story development because we always knew that Cage and Sonya would hook up and now is the time they finally do and that's something you'd love to see. Moreover, you do see the chemistry between the two from being annoyed with one another to truly caring for one another, especially their daughter as well. The other thing in what I like most about the game is, we get to see a much better look of Outworld on the outside aspect, usually and I would imagine Ed Boon and his crew didn't have enough money to make a better version of Outworld, but with this game you see Outworld with a mix of Middle East with Aztec vibes to it, and the new Emperor of Kotal Kahn sets a new tone for it as an Emperor whose on neutral sides to the coin in situations but a more respectable Emperor. The other thing and this is coming from a fans point is that we finally get to see Scorpion behind the mask, as Hanzo Hasashi a ninja whose not all about revenge but trying to restore honor to his forgotten clan almost the same as Sub-Zero moreover finally seeing these too finally become allies and not just rivals or enemies as well. The other entertainment factor is granted I was a bit weary on this idea, but having played Jason Voorhees in MKX, I have to give some bonus points for impressed because it truly is fun to play some of these characters like the Alien or Predator so, now you can have your own Alien vs Predator almost the same way you can have a 80's showdown between Robocop and the Terminator in MK11. Ten years after the games were released, Mortal Kombat X or XL still holds up from great story mode to increasing more special guest characters appearing in the game. And even having beloved characters like Liu Kang and Kitana as evil revenants to fight Earth Realm warriors, to make the story more compelling and not just allowing Liu Kang as the main hero but have some of these young warriors like Cassie Cage to be the new protagonist in this tenth installment to the Mortal Kombat franchise. So, if you have a PS4 or Xbox One then I would highly recommend playing this game as well as recommend having a horror movie showdown between Jason and Leatherface, for which would make a very interesting showdown, moreover shows Jason being offered an alliance with Liu Kang in the NetherRealm but decides to kill Liu Kang anyway for which shows why Jason is an unstoppable killing machine.
