Mortal Kombat Receives New Patch Update

Popular fighting game Mortal Kombat X has received a new patch update. Patch 1.02 which has been available to download since this weekend, has introduced brand new skins and also minor gameplay changes. Below are a list of changes:
  • General - Throws (regular or command grabs) will no longer sometimes connect on a grounded reacting opponent off a counter hit.
  • Shinnok (Impostor) - He can now control the location of a stolen Goro Stomp.
  • Subzero (Grandmaster) - Combos on a grounded opponent frozen by the Ice Klone will now scale properly.
  • Takeda (Ronin) - Added a new move "Quick Kall" (Down, Towards, Front Punch) which quickly returns a dropped blade without doing an attack.
  • Takeda (Shirai Ryu) – He will now always teleport to the other side when doing the Air Shirai Ryu Port.
The game which was released last week had a massive launch, with the franchise claiming it was the biggest in its history. This is even though it only released in 3 formats: PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are scheduled for a Summer release.
