Mortal Kombat 11 - Official Nintendo Switch Gameplay Reveal

I've been waiting so long for this! I own every enhanced console and a gaming PC, but I decided to pre-order on Switch for the portability. They didn't show too much and it all went by pretty fast, but it looked perfectly acceptable. If I get all the content and am only missing out on graphical fidelity, I'm perfectly okay with that. I even customized my left joy-con with a proper d-pad in preparation for the game. I. AM. READY!!!!!!

'ello baby, did you miss me?
lmao Johnny and Sonya beating on each other.

I cannot wait to play this freaking story mode.
There is some weird ass shit going on with Sonya in this story mode.

First we get a glimpse of her being held captive by Tekunin assholes behind Johnny, while he's punching Kano in the balls, which Johnny doesn't seem to be too stressed out about. Then in Old Skool vs New Skool we get Cassie walking up to Sonya confrontationally in Kano's club, which the trailer segues into a 1v1 between them but for all we know that's just a trailer being deliberately misleading. But now we have Sonya punching Johnny in the face in Kano's club? But either before or after that scene, we see Sonya, Johnny, and Cassie fighting minigun Kano outside the club.

Hmmm. The safe guess is still on trailer magic, right? Young Sonya is just hyper-confrontational and it makes her butt heads with the people she's supposed to be helping. But the more intriguing guess is that Sonya... goes rogue?

Now that we know that Triborg's backstory is essentially canon, and that Black Dragon is assaulting S-F command to either steal Sektor or steal Sektor's memories, it at least gives us a good idea of why the fuck S-F would care enough about Black Dragon to hunt them down later on. If the Black Dragon create an army of Tekunin, that would actually make them a legitimate threat to everyone.

Take it, it was made for that purpose :D

Can't wait for the game. And I'll make more awesome gifs after the game will be released

You could also try using a switch pro controller (the real ones not the hori brand ones). feels amazing in your hands

It is very confusing, my bet is she'll just have trouble adjusting or believing what's happening, imagine finding out you have a kick-ass daughter? XD And maybe Sonya and Johnny need to fight for some other reason than them just wanting to pummel each other? Like are the Kanos forcing them and holding Cassie hostage?

There’s multiple things you can do. Hori actually makes an officially licensed left joy con with a d-pad. But it doesn’t work wirelessly and doesn’t have vibration function. But it’s relatively cheap and you can get it on Amazon for $20. There’s also a company that makes outer shells where you can mod a joy con you already own. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076SN9G5Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Ou6TCb32ZG8KR

That’s just one example but they make multiple colors and stuff. You can look up a tutorial on YouTube for the proper steps on how to do that.

If you’re not comfortable doing the modding yourself, there’s also a highly reviewed and respected seller on Etsy who you can send your joy cons to and he’ll mod them for you. He also has already modded ones up for sale. You’d think this would cost a lot extra, but he’s very reasonable with his prices for everything.

Anyways, hopefully that helps and you find the method that works best for you! But if you plan on playing MK11 on the go, I’d highly suggest getting that proper d pad.

Switch version looks awesome, everyone who's played it at PAX including Yagotcaged kid said the switch plays amazing gameplay wise. Can't wait to get my hands on it, glad I preordered it.
