Sure, it might have only been twice at this point, but compared to the likes of Street Fighter and Tekken, who are still carrying on the same storyline after decades, Mortal Kombat is not the same game that it once was. There's a lot more to MK1 that the video elaborates on, so give it a watch and let us know in the comments what you learned and what you're most excited for.Mortal Kombat might just hold the distinction of being the most rebooted fighting game franchise of all time. There's, of course, drawbacks to being wrong about your up blocking, so let the mind games commence. The concept here is simple, but the implications are vast as up blocking is a specific defensive call out players can make against opponents who are attacking from the sky or with an overhead.īlocking a high-hitting attack with up block will net the defender better situations and potential for punishes, inevitably leading to a more nuanced back and forth as the fight rolls on. There's also a new blocking mechanic that's something like the flawless blocks we saw in Mortal Kombat 11: up block.
This actually makes a lot of sense since it's your kameo helper who comes in and breaks up the action, and this might finally be the correct cost that balances this super powerful ability. You can break even the Fatal Blow (often referred to as X-Ray attacks as well) sequences this time around, but doing so will cost you all of your meter and requires that your kameo fighter is available. They're something of a get out of jail free card that can be activated when a player is being actively hit in a combo sequence, but as you might expect, such a powerful tool comes at a costly price. Kameos are, for instance, tied directly to the combo breaker mechanic now.Ĭombo breakers are massively powerful maneuvers that've been around in Mortal Kombat (on and off) for years now. Ketchup and Mustard already did a full video breaking down kameos as it's such an integral part of the MK1 experience, but we get to see some of its influence in this examination as well.
Every player will select a kameo fighter to help out their main character in every match, and this can best be compared to the "special partner" assist mechanic from back in Marvel vs.
The most foundational mechanic in Mortal Kombat 1 has to be the new "kameo" assist.
