The single player mode isn’t quite as brutal as what you had to face in Mortal Kombat II, and in the early matches, one could almost say it’s fairly reasonable. Besides the new features, though, the controls and actual fighting mechanics are mostly similar, including the rather peculiar way the series handles special move inputs. For the most part, the game does play a lot faster than Mortal Kombat II ever did, which might be a good thing for some people, and an issue for others. The problem is that most of these combos can do around 30% damage to an opponent, so there’s a lot of temptation to abuse your standard chain combo instead of using a little creativity. On one hand, the auto combos are a good way for anybody new to the game to get in some decent damage without learning the ins and outs of the combo system. Technically, there’s nothing stopping you from still using the traditional juggle combos that you would use in Mortal Kombat 2, although a couple of auto-combos will do just as much damage as one of the more complex custom combos. Some characters only have about three or four auto-combos to use, while others, like Sonya, have up to seven. And so, the survivors have to fight their way to Shao Kahn, kill him once more, and save what’s left of the world.ĭial-a-combos, which are rather common in 3D fighters, but pretty rare in 2D ones, are basically a string of buttons you hit in sequence to pull off an automatic combo. Raiden manages to protect the lives of the returning characters, but since he has no power in Outworld, he’s out of the fight. Millions die instantly as Outworld and Earthrealm merge, and most of the survivors are killed by Shao Kahn’s army, including Johnny Cage. This somehow creates a loophole allowing Shao Kahn and his army to march straight in. He has Shang Tsung resurrect his dead wife, Queen Sindel, somewhere in the Earthrealm. Not only that, but he has a new plan to conquer Earthrealm, this time skipping over the whole ‘tournament’ thing entirely. It turns out Shao Kahn wasn’t quite dead, despite quite clearly turning into stone and exploding at the end of MK2. Unfortunately, this is the point in the fighting game genre where Capcom and SNK were beginning to take some bold new steps, and MK3 doesn’t really do too much to change up the engine or the typical mechanics that make up an MK game. There’s a new setting for all the violence to take place in, new gameplay mechanics, new secrets, new characters, and with that, a whole lot of new fatalities. Some of them worked, while others don’t work quite so well. But this time around, instead of just taking the original Mortal Kombat and polishing it, a few new ideas were added in. With as much popularity as the series had, another sequel was inevitable. Merchandise was being made, comics were being published, and talks of a major motion picture were in the air.
