Dislike
- Cassie Cage (Personality/Design) I feel she was too much like Sonya and Johnny and less like a unique character
- All of the new characters except Takeda, and Kotal Kahn. Imo they could of gone without Cassie, and Jacquie as they just seem like knockoffs of their parents.
- That WB nerfed the amount of Koins you get to entice Microtransactions
- No real Stage Fatalities
- No Konquest mode
- Netcode
- No Filtering options for connections in matchmaking queue
- Playback/Record match is broken (Can't watch the full online match replay without getting "Playback Data Does Not Agree". Also updates break your replays so you can't watch old footage ever again)
- Interactables added to game
- The amount of grinding it takes to unlock costumes/concept art/extras
- No cyber ninjas
- No playable Smoke, Reiko, Fujin, Frost, Shang Tsung, Noob, Li Mei, Havik, Hotaru, Rain
- Reptile is still a jobber, so is Ermac
- Johnny Cage is Shonen protagonist for what felt like the majority of the game
- It felt like Cassie Cage bodies Shinnok out of nowhere
- Story (direction it went, what they did with the new characters, jumping around with the time frame)
- Lack of Konquest
- Lack of costumes for the majority of the cast
- Some of the variations don't add as much change to the character as they led you to believe
- Test Your Might seemed impossible in this game (I'm looking at the last one)
- No friendships, Animatlities and only two fatalities
- Some character's brutalities are better than their fatalities
- Raiden's Second Fatalitiy
- Can't take a break on King Of The Hill if you're the winner
- KOTH points are glitched (When you eventually leave, you have a high chance for your points to disappear)
- In game frame data is incorrect
- Music, This might have the worst soundtrack for all the MK Main games (imo Deception and MKDA were the best)
