The new battles modes are really the best, this time MK includes the most large mode, funny an enjoyable that can wrap to you, and if you want to complete the whole game you should stay playing a large time, the most and new interesting mode include is the Konquest mode, here you must complete around 200 missions, and at the time you are playing you can learn how this new release of MK work, like combos, specials moves and other things that make this game unique also this mode work like a useful tutorial if you are novice and want to be an expert on this Deadly Alliance.
THE NEW BATTLE MODE
The most important feature that make the best arcade battle game I had ever seen is the battle style where you can choose 3 different styles with any character and one of them can fit on you , and you can do impressive combos while you change of style, that changes of styles and with a correct sequence of moves the combo can carry 10 or 12 knocks of all types. This styles are related with martial arts like Judo, Muay, Thai and Baji. This styles wrap to you in entertained and original battle and should be you playing hours and hours, something very special of this battles styles is that each style have their own combo moves and if you want the best combo you can combine between this three styles and make a impressive combo but the hard of this arrive here, you must learn the styles with each character and improve your abilities in the game, this process probably take weeks to learn but when you have done this and you convert in a good opponent you wont be satisfied because is time to unlock the extra items in the game and play more and more.
SCENARIOS
The variety of scenarios and the quality of them are excellent, there are 20 variety of scenarios each of them has impressive designs, some of them includes statues, rocks and other things that make the scenarios really attractive and softly to play the game.
THE KRYPT
A special characteristic that own Deadly Alliance is that you can buy arenas, characters, clothes, and a lot of things. If you want to buy all the items you should play a really long time because in the Krypt exists 676 boxes where you can find interesting things that will make the game more attractive to you, you can buy all the items but there is a prize for that you must own the money winning bonus game, finish your opponent, completing the konquest mode and you can repeat the process the times that you want to have more and more coins.
BONUS GAME
There are two bonus games. Where you can win coins to buy new item in the krypt section, at the begging of the bonus games it will be very easy, but later you will be in a serious problem because the difficult wont be the same.
GRAPHICS
A good work on it, around 20 different scenarios with several details and the characters have the best mobility that make the game very playable.
The scenarios are the best, they have filled with the minimum details that combines with the battles, and creates an ambient of suspense.
SOUND
The sound of the game has the quality that this game is made and the music improve good the action .
PLAYABILITY
The game has an excellent playability, when you dominates this new battle mode of MK you will be surprised because this is really fantastic and awesome, with the knocks, swords and other things that make an interesting game, but the most important thing here is that if you are a novice only follow the tutorial in konquest mode and complete all the instructions, after you have done this you will control all the movements of your character or characters if you have a good memory and easily kill your opponent with a smart victory.
CONCLUSION
I like this game and I expect that the saga of Mortal Kombat never dies, this is the most and incredible game that completes just everything that a gamer would want. The new characteristics that includes Deadly Alliance are the most controversial and interesting .
