Mortal Kombat 1: Definitive Edition announced! End of the games cycle?

The Definitive Edition has been announced with everything already released + the new movie skins. This is a major signal that the cycle of the game is nearing it's end if hasn't reached it already. The only saving grace is Ed saying more on an X post and the "AND MORE" below. I don't think now was the time to be vague as this tells everyone the game is done and in it's definitive state. Did not expect that today! Price tag is $59.99

 

@Roy Arkon was beating his chest all week about how much more content we're getting lmao

 

I'm betting "And more" refers to things like premium shop announcers and items.

And the trailer says "And more".

Nice try dummy

It is still more though. Any kind of content is still content.

 

I hope "and more" is the announcement that they're getting rid of Cianciolo

 

Not to be that guy and seemingly come off like I'd defending WB and potentially predatory marketing practices but... support =/=content. Releasing a definitive edition doesn't mean they won't continue to support the game, it only implies that the cycle of content behind a pay wall is over. They can still drop QoL patches and the like. I'm pretty sure MKX's final balance patch came after MKXLs release.

So you're saying there's still a chance they release Sonya for free, right

We already know they'll do one more patch. But it usually is just one more patch.

mk1 is the longest supported game in NRS history... .

 

It also includes the preorder bonuses like UMK3 noob and Sub Zero, and probably Mk2 Kitana and Mileena, so it should even out I guess.

I own everything and the price is still 49.99 for me. It makes no sense.

Sure, why not.

Could be. Too early to say what their support will look like this time around.

I do not know why people are laughing at that.. I mean it is literally true. It is not like there is a debate about it.. facts are facts.

It isnt yet, though. Mk11 was supported longer
