Mortal Kombat 3

Game review

The third part of the well-known game series. Compared to previous versions of the game, there were no big changes to the game principles. Combos have been added and animalities have been added to fatalities, babalities and friendships. You get a choice of fourteen fighters plus one bonus one (unlocked after you finish the whole tournament). There are some well-known main characters missing tho (such as Scorpion, Reptile and Rayden), not sure why they removed them, I think they were pretty popular. Sub-Zero underwent a facelift, Kano and Sonya Blade experienced a comeback. The robots Sektor and Cyrax were introduced, the four-armed Sheeva, representative of the Shokan family, took her place, and the centaur Motaro took the role of subboss. The game received a slightly better graphics and I think that the fatality is bloodier than before - sometimes exaggerated, but whatever - it's what we love about this game, right? :) For gamers, who love Mortal Kombat series is Mortal Kombat 3 must have.

Did you know Mortal Kombat is not just a bloody fighting game. It has story too. Shao Kahn, tired of constant defeats in tournaments, proceeds with a 10,000-year-old plan, which includes reviving his consort, Queen of Outworld Sindel. This is only possible on Earth. This crosses the line, the two worlds partially merge, and millions of people die. The survivors are saved by Raiden, the patron of Earth. However, he cannot do more, his supernatural abilities do not work in the Otherworld. Shao Kahn sends his extermination squads to Earth, Raiden, on the other hand, drives people to attack. The disaster must be averted at all costs…

It was only in this part that the classic main menu appeared in the game, earlier parts did not have automatic controls. The novelty was the game over the network, the IPX protocol was supported. The combo has become a powerful tool in the hands of docile players. Animality could only be used in the third round, and only after the winner had given the loser one more chance, "tapped out" the so-called mercies, and the opponent arrived again. Mortal Kombat 3, along with its later re-releases, was the last 2D brawler in the series.
