Mortal Kombat X is a 2015 fighting game developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It is the tenth main installment in the Mortal Kombat franchise and a sequel to Mortal Kombat (2011), taking place 25 years later after the events of its predecessor. High Voltage Software developed the Windows version of the game, with Polish studio QLOC taking over the work on it shortly after the release of Kombat Pack 1.

Runs well on modern hardware.

MKX is very light to load even for mid-low PC and also pretty much fun to play, definitely worth buying.
MKX is one of the better Mortal Kombat games, I really enjoy it. The story is fairly short, should only take about an hour or two. Has some QTEs mixed in, so be aware. Lots of singleplayer content available, and lots of characters and variations on those characters to learn. Stages are highly interactable, which can change your strategies as the match goes on. Highly recommend this one!
Wouldnt recommend to most, I love MKX but for most generic players this game isnt going to be for them. Ive played this game for 14 hours, learning combos- wait I mean "kombos" (as MK refer to them). Personally I would say this is the best fighting game to this date as it has some of the best features that other fighting games dont have. Moreover, its probably the best MK (Mortal Kombat) game to this date and that includes the most recent release MK1 (or MK13). The reason why I say this game isnt the best for people who just want to "hop on" and have some fun is because you simply cant. Ive spend 99% of the time in training mode, learning Scorpion and im still rusty with him. I went into ONE online match against another Scorpion and, I KID YOU NOT the win rate % was 0%!!! (I lost that game of course). Overall, this game isnt for the weak (or for those who just want to buy a game just to play for 5-10 hours). If you want to get good you will be spending hours on training mode and relying on muscle memory (and its probably best to play every day to practice said combos to get familiar with the characters). Think of it this way, its like learning to play the piano, you practice and overtime you WILL get better at the game. The only difference being that you wont be learning to play a piece of elegant music, rather you will be learning how to survive against a demon who hasnt stepped off the game since it first released 10 years ago... Good Luck... (your gunna need more than luck, maybe some willpower too)
