Mortal Kombat 1 leaves early access tomorrow, September 19, but before its official release, fans of the series have been amazed by the game’s performance on Nintendo Switch. You’re going to laugh.
Thanks to its early access period, clips and screenshots of the game’s performance on Switch have been circulating on social media, with countless fans mocking the questionable character models seen on the Switch. By the way, you have to watch the launch trailer.
Especially if we compare it to the PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S versions. That’s where you can see that the Nintendo Switch has become obsolete.
This is not MK1; it’s something else
YouTube and TikToker Johniibo shared a video of the Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1 and said, “The sad part is that it doesn’t actually feel terrible to play, it just really hurts my eyes. It’s like PS2 graphics at best.”
Many fans have been questioning the pricing of the different versions of the game, pointing out that the Switch version costs the same as the PS5 or PC versions. And of course, it doesn’t seem like the same game.
Despite the negative response, a series of particularly funny facial expressions from the game have already been gaining traction as memes and reaction photos.
A Twitter user wrote: “The Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1 is the best trash port in history just for the memes.”
But this is just a meme, a minor issue that we can use for some good laughs. Because the reality is that Mortal Kombat 1 is turning out to be a fantastic game, with very good reviews and a warm reception from players.
If you’re thinking about getting MK1, rest assured that it’s a good decision. 2023 is shaping up to be the year of fighting games. First, it was Street Fighter 6, and now Mortal Kombat 1. May the fighting games be blessed.
