During the 1992/93 period DOOM & MK were my first games that I was ever playing on PC and I was astonished by both. After 30 years those are still one of the best franchises in their genre on the market releasing games like Doom Eternal or Mortal Kombat 11 (and those are still one of my favorites right now). Mortal Kombat 1 will be mostly the same in game mechanics as MK11 with some tweaks regarding combos, cameo assists and single player modes...
Story wise, (without spoiling anything) if anybody finished MK11 main story & the aftermath story expansion could notice why are all those changes in characters now like Raiden, Lin Kuei ninjas and so on (It's an entire cool global plot behind it). I love fighting games mostly coz' I also love to practice martial arts after job, and between Street Fighter, Tekken, and Mortal Kombat/Injustice, those combat artforms made by NetherRealm Studio are what I enjoy the most in fighting games (coz' those have a great story developed behind them and also coz' and also coz' offers a more serious and nostalgic vibe to me knowing my own past gaming profile).

Already have 438h in MK11 on Steam so I also pre-ordered the entire package of MK1 coz' was on my radar for so long. Watching those story bits and raw gameplay footage from trailers, I really feel at home and very pleased to see them combining again parts that made MK great in the past and new fresh content:
MORTAL KOMBAT !!!
