Indeed, the first DLC for the game has already been enjoying a lot of success on the market, and people have been praising NetherRealm for their attention to detail in coming up with new things for their fans to play around with.
Above all, the studio has been getting praise for listening to what their fans want to see, and paying attention to the market. This is particularly important nowadays when fans have such easy access to tools for sharing their opinions and express what they want.
The game as a whole has been developed with a lot of attention to its competitive nature, something which fans of the franchise have wanted to see for a while now.
There has been worrying that “Mortal Kombat X” might be a bit too casual for the tastes of old school fans, particularly after the franchise as a whole started becoming too mainstream and simplified, but the final result was nothing of the sort. It’s a title with serious competitive potential and with just a few small updates to polish some of the more annoying issues with the balance, it could quickly become a very prominent title on the market for fighting games.
