Netherrealm Studios has just announced the mobile version of Mortal Kombat X for iOS and Android devices. From the released trailer and press release the game seems similar to the mobile version of Injustice: Gods Among Us. Fans will also be delighted to know, that the mobile version will include Finishing Moves and will integrate with the Console/PC versions. Take a look at the press release and trailer for more information:

The trailer has a very nostalgic factor to it, so we thought it would be cool to make some screenshots of the footage with classic games:

I just hope that it doesn't mean that you must have both versions in order to unlock content for one of the versions that you can't do normally, or at least that I don't have to pay more money playing the mobile version (in free to play mobile games you need to pay money in order to progress the games), or at the very least, that I won't have to pay that much money or that the content isn't really that improtant for the console versions. As long as that's the case, I'm fine by that. The mobile version does look awesome though.

I can imagine that this is exactly what it means. This was how it was with Injustice at the beginning. I think later all changed but initially there was content which was only unlockable if you have the other version.

Then like I said, I hope that the unlockable content isn't that important, or at least I won't have to go through a huge paywall, or maybe the path to that content will be free of charge.

The way it was with Injustice. It was enough to register an account for the Mobile version to get unlock content on the console version.

As far as I know the unlockables for console verions on the mobile one were some alternate costumes. If that's gonna be the case for MKX, then that's sounds cool and all but unless those costumes in MKX's mobile are gonna be really good, I'm not sure if I'm gonna get the mobile version.
