**I originally wrote this review with 1-star, but I've since solved the issue, so I'm bumping it up to 3. I had to go through a ridiculous series of steps to get the game to work.** Original 1-star review: Before the first story mode cutscene ends, the game crashes back to the PS4 home screen.

NetherRealm Studios are back with another instalment of the iconic and legendary franchise with Mortal Kombat 11 . This could very well be the best in the series yet, with gameplay being arguably better than it's ever been, it certainly looks its best and as an overall package, it also represents...

I bought this game for my son. He plays against his brothers, uncle & friends. They enjoy the game.

Best mortal kombat EVER! I didn't think it could get any better than the previous version! Instant "Klassic"!
