Game Overview

Introducing Mortal Kombat: Armageddon – The latest chapter in Midway’s award-winning, best-selling video game fi ghting franchise. With the most complete Mortal Kombat roster ever, including nearly every character from the Mortal Kombat universe (past, present and future), a revolutionary Create-A-Fighter mode and Create-A-Fatality mode, plus a brand new Konquest mode, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon promises to be the most complete, intensely lethal, fi ghting experience ever!

The Good

Dozens of selectable fighters spanning the Mortal Kombat series' entire history, konquest mode is a much better action adventure game than last time.

The Bad

Gameplay hasn't evolved much and feels stiff and clunky at this point, new custom fatality system is a disappointing replacement to the classics, presentation recycles a lot of graphics and sound from years-old games.

The Bottom Line

The seventh entry in the ongoing fighting series is a full-blown armageddon, bringing together every bloodletting character in Mortal Kombat history as well as adding new characters eager for violence. Also featured are Create--A--Fighter mode, Create--A--Fatality mode, and a brand new Konquest mode.
