MK9 was outsourced on PC to some garbage dev and was a terrible game with late patch updates compared to console, which was laughably bad for competitive play. I don't expect this to be any different but we'll see, it's pretty obvious netherrealm does not give a fuck about PC.

And Jesus Christ that song was awful, could of picked literally any other rapper and it would of been better.
That was 7 years ago at this point. Since then MKX had a garbage initial port that was later fixed up by another team for MKXL, and it's now best version from a technical perspective. IJ2 was ported by the same people who fixed MKX and was a great port, but it was 6 months late.

Yeah...I'm going to need 2 v 2 tag mode in this game. I want to play with three friends at the same time like in MK9!

I think the song choice fits the personality of the series well. It isn't taking itself seriously.

All these peeps happy for PC day one.....did you forget what happened the last time? Even the fucking preload didn't work properly, it was that bad. Now we just need an Angry Joe/Ed Boon interview talking about the state of the PC port and Im gonna nope out of this and wait for other people to be my testers.
The last time was Injustice 2, which has a great PC port, but it was 6 months late.
MKX was fixed on PC with MKXL, and is the best version of the game from a technical perspective.
I mean, don't preorder it (don't preorder games in general), but don't act like it's going to be a dumpster fire because you want to ignore the last 4 years of PC versions of Netherrealm games

I can't believe they went with hip hop for the trailer again after last time. Oh well. Gear is confirmed. This is gonna be rad.

Switch version is a suprise! I'll have to wait to see how performance is. This just reminds me I have to finish playing MK9 and MKX.

Going in with the MK II iconography. I wonder if that means anything gameplay or philosophically for the game.

Honestly gave me more MK4 vibes than anything. Closer to MK X in terms of visual style too.

Cautiously optimistic. MK X played really well, but I still long for my MK II heyday stuff.

Subby gets killed in the X trailer and now is entirely absent?

This disrespect can not stand, Boon must be stopped.

I didn't know there was going to be a Switch version until I saw this topic. That's awesome!
When's the beta dropping?

Happy that they apparently continue with Gear so i can dress up my ninja dolls.

Just hope they reduce it and make it more special and not 500 similar looking pieces like in Injustice 2.

I want MK2 style fighting to come back. Solid, simple, fun. Comes down to fundamentals, mind games, and experience.

I mean it's their own characters rather than licensed iconic ones. Also we better get costumes based off the movie versions!

...and what do all those games have in common for the PC?

Gear system making it to MK, I'm not loving the idea. Everyone will look like Ironman and getting the look you want for your fighter will take ages. Bleh.

The music really doesn't suit the game at all (hip hop is a hype killer and I can't stand the sound of it), but what a cool trailer.

Of course there was a 2nd Scorpion. Boon would never allow Scorpion to straight up lose.
