Mortal Kombat 1 patch notes Archives

NetherRealm Studios has rolled out a new update for Mortal Kombat 1, concentrating primarily on fine-tuning the DLC character Takeda Takahashi. Takeda, known for his techno-whip combat style and affiliation with the Shirai Ryu clan, was introduced in July as part of the post-launch content for Mortal Kombat 1. This update is the latest in a series of patches aimed at refining the game since its release in October of last year. Takeda Takahashi Gets Key Adjustments The update brings several changes to Takeda, focusing on his attack mechanics and overall effectiveness in battle. Notably, his Swift Stride move now has increased active armor frames, providing better defense during execution. Additionally, the Shooting Star and Falling Star attacks have been adjusted to hit low instead of mid, offering more strategic options for players. These changes aim to balance Takeda's gameplay, making him a more formidable opponent in the arena. Kameo Fighters See Important Tweaks Alongside Takeda, several Kameo fighters, including Frost, Tremor, and Ferra, have received adjustments to enhance their performance and balance. Frost's Snow Flakes Cancel move now allows the main fighter to recover more quickly, and her exit from the playfield has been sped up, making her a more agile Kameo option. Tremor's various Transmute attacks have been rebalanced with changes to their recharge rates and delays, ensuring a more fluid combat experience. Meanwhile, Ferra's health has been reduced, and her Torr Stance: Slide! move now inflicts less blockstun, slightly decreasing her defensive capabilities. Khaos Reigns Expansion on the Horizon As Mortal Kombat 1 fans anticipate the upcoming Khaos Reigns expansion set to launch on September 24, this update serves as a precursor to the new content. The expansion will introduce a fresh story campaign featuring Titan Havik’s plot to unleash chaos across the Mortal Kombat multiverse, along with three new fighters: Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot. Additionally, Kombat Pack 2 will bring iconic guest characters such as Ghostface, T-1000, and Conan the Barbarian to the roster, promising to keep the game’s momentum strong. Ongoing Commitment to Player Feedback NetherRealm has demonstrated a consistent commitment to player feedback, continually refining Mortal Kombat 1 through these updates. The developers have not only addressed character balancing but have also worked to fix glitches and enhance overall gameplay. This dedication ensures that Mortal Kombat 1 remains a polished and engaging entry in the series, evolving with each patch and expansion.
