Mortal Kombat 1 players are finding themselves quite upset this week following the announcement that paid Fatalities will soon be coming to the popular fighting game. With the last few Mortal Kombat installments, NetherRealm Studios has added paid content that players can choose to purchase outside of the main game. Not only has this additional content taken the form of DLC fighters and story expansions, but an in-game storefront has also been established that gives players new cosmetic options for various characters. Now, with Mortal Kombat 1, NetherRealm is tucking exclusive Fatalities behind a paywall too, and it’s not going over well with fans.
Yeah that’s fair. I know as an adult I have more control so I avoid those games (now) but once you’re in, your locked into that fomo.
But I see it negatively impacting my kids more than anything. Imagine growing up playing those games… I had Mario and games you bought and owned lol I can’t relate to most of the games of today.
