Summary

Mortal Kombat X is the tenth main game in the one-on-one fighting series and a sequel to the 2011 title Mortal Kombat. The game stays close to the visual style and the mechanics of the 2011 reboot. The main controls are still based on two types of punches and kicks, and blocking, to form combos with uppercuts, teleports, special moves that incorporate weapons and fatalities. The three-tiered energy from the previous title returns, making available X-Ray moves, powered up EX moves and combo breakers. As introduced in Injustice: Gods Among Us, characters can use the environment to re-position themselves or optionally use parts as weapons. Each character now has three variations with different moves and weapons. There is once again a sprinting gauge, returning from Mortal Kombat 4.

Mortal Kombat has dabbled in horror icons as characters in the past. Next up? Friday the 13th's Jason Voorhees in next month's Mortal Kombat X. The bad news? The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions have been delayed until summer.

Mortal Kombat X is coming to iOS and Android next month as a free-to-play fighting/card-game, shades of the mobile version of Injustice: Gods Among Us. The mobile MK will link to the console version for unlockable goodness. I don't know about you, but "Swipe! Finish Him" doesn't have quite the same ring.

Notice anything different about Mortal Kombat X's Scorpion? As first shown in the tie-in comic, the demonic teleporting ninja sure looks a lot more human in the newest teaser for Netherrealm's upcoming fighting game.
