The storyline in Mortal Kombat 11 Komplete Edition and Aftermath is collectively the best in the series by a landslide. This review is going to be covering the version that includes the aforementioned DLC. MK is still growing strong with the release of 2019’s Mortal Kombat 11 and its subsequent story DLC, Aftermath. ESRB ratings exist as a direct result of MK and other titles such as Night Trap pushing boundaries in what was then considered solely ‘children’s entertainment’. Mortal Kombat helped sculpt the landscape of extreme content in gaming and how it’s managed.
If you, dear reader, were born in the 80s and didn’t spend a decent portion of the 90s playing Mortal Kombat in your local arcade, chipper or on your SEGA MegaDrive, then it is this writer’s duty to inform you that you had responsible parents in an era when rear seatbelts were still optional.
