Sheeva has a wonderful range of multi-hit moves that make you feel like you’ve well and truly pounded your opponent by the end of each match, while Fujin feels incredibly unique considering the game’s expansive roster. Sheeva and Fujin are honestly quite brilliant. The real value of the Aftermath expansion, then, is in the three characters it adds to the game. “Sheeva and Fujin are honestly quite brilliant” The trouble is, once you have completed it, you’re unlikely to return. You’ll earn lots of neat rewards by playing through it too. The production values are as high as ever, and taking control of characters neglected by the main story is a nice touch. The Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath story will take you around three hours to complete, and you’ll be entertained for all of it. Presenting a plan to thwart Kronika once and for all, Shang Tsung is of course up to his scheming again, and in doing so he steals every scene. Picking up where the story of vanilla Mortal Kombat 11 left off, the limelight is given to classic characters added via DLC: Shang Tsung, Nightwolf, Sindel, and newcomers Sheeva and Fujin. The content included in aftermath is actually pretty good. “The Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath story will take you around three hours to complete, and you’ll be entertained for all of it”
While Aftermath costs £34.99/$39.99, everything else is free for all. Though it has landed at the same time of a brilliant new patch, adding new stages, Friendships, stage fatalities and balance changes to the game. It doesn’t even introduce any new trophies or achievements for those interested in such things. It offers additional story chapters, three new characters and very little else. Unfortunately the same can’t be said of Aftermath, a expansion for the game landing pretty much one year after its original launch.
Needless to say, it offers tremendous value for money, even if it’s a little grindy at times what with so much content locked away in its Krypt. It has plenty of characters (even more if you’ve purchased the Kombat Pack), a brilliant story mode, and so many customisation options that you can spend hours just tweaking your favourite combatants. That said, I'm on Twitter So holler.Mortal Kombat 11 is undoubtedly one of the finest fighting games available right now, especially for those who don’t actually like fighting other players.
Oh, FYI, I'd love to write the Gargoyles movie for Disney. In closing, let me remind you that the geek shall inherit the Earth. Business-wise, I make big cheddar (not really) as a copywriter and digital strategist working with some of the top brands in the Latin America region. And yes, I've written sports for them too! Not bad for someone from the Caribbean, eh? To top all this off, I've scribed short films and documentaries, conceptualizing stories and scripts from a human interest and social justice perspective. I also write about music in terms of punk, indie, hardcore and emo because well, they rock! If you're bored by now, then you also don't want to hear that I write for ESPN on the PR side of things. On the geek side of things, I write about comics, cartoons, video games, television, movies and basically, all things nerdy.
It was boring so I decided to write about things I love.
