Enter sorcerer and shapeshifter, Shang Tsung. Liu Kang and Raiden have defeated Kronika, but in order to restart time, they need to locate her crown. If I could give you any kind of guarantee to warrant the purchase of Aftermath, it is this: if you loved Mortal Kombat 11’s campaign, this is just as satisfying.Īftermath continues straight after the events of the base game. I guess it’s down to how much you want to see old and new faces return. Time travel acted as the core focus of the original story, allowing NetherRealm to do whatever they wanted, and as it ended, it felt like the perfect end to an intense tale. Yes, it’s magnificent, and the new characters are pretty damn cool, but that price tag is a bit too much for what you’re getting. That being said, paying around £40 to play a further three hours is pretty steep. As much as I never expected there to be any kind of continuation, I can’t help but thank the Elder Gods for its creation. It was filled with madness, gore, action, and chaos, but also did a fantastic job of lumping together the entire roster and tell a story so over-the-top that every second felt like my eyeballs were being injected with adrenaline. I loved everything about Mortal Kombat 11, but the campaign was definitely the highlight. When NetherRealm announced the Aftermath Expansion, I was delighted.
