Xbox Kollector’s Edition (Scorpion) Compared to the likes of Special Forces, Deadly Alliance was a success, at least for the MK fans. It needed more polish, more content and more Fatalities, and a sequel was quickly underway to deliver all this and more. Deceptionis a major improvement over the shaky new mechanics in Deadly Alliance, but don’t expect this entry to replace Virtua Fighter 4 in your collection, either. It also gave us some of the most boring characters in the franchise. Don’t forget, we’re talking about the series that brought us Jarek, here. Deception starts off not long after the events of Deadly Alliance, and things are getting real bad, real fast. For one thing, the Deadly Alliance won.

Shang Tsung and Quan Chi have sent the Dragon King’s invincible army out after the heroes of Earthrealm, who quickly and fatally find out that they weren’t kidding about the ‘invincible’ part. While most of the heroes of Earthrealm are getting killed off, Raiden charges in to try and put a stop to the Deadly Alliance himself.

He puts up a good fight, but the two manage to overpower him. At this rate, the only thing that could possibly stop Quan Chi and Shang Tsung now is if Onaga himself showed up.

Guess what happens next? Raiden and the Deadly Alliance are even forced to team up to try to take Onaga down, but nothing they try works. In a last resort, Raiden blows himself and the Deadly Alliance up, but it doesn’t even scratch Onaga. Onaga’s plan, now that there’s nobody to stop him, is to gather six artifacts known as the Kamidogu, which are apparently part of an omnipotent power known as the One Being.

If the One Being awakens, it will merge all the realms into itself, which basically means it’ll destroy the universe. The good news is that Raiden survived blowing himself up, but now he’s super pissed. He’s put in so much effort protecting Earthrealm, and now that some idiot went out and resurrected Onaga, he’s going to protect the hell out of Earthrealm, whether they want it or not. And by protect, he means “Bring unlife to Liu Kang’s rotting corpse and use it as his own personal enforcer.” As you can imagine from the way the story goes, things are even darker and gritter this time. You can tell even from the menus that this won’t be a happy game, with a thunderstorm going on in the background and the dark techno that plays over the character select screen. Speaking of characters, there’s actually a lot more than there were in the predecessor. After effects cs6 (11.0.4) update.

Some of them return from Deadly Alliance, but there’s also quite a few characters who haven’t made an appearance in a “major” MK game since the 2D games, like Sindel and Baraka. And of course, there are a few new guys in there, too. Not that most of them are any good. Mortal Kombat Deception (Xbox) The basic fighting mechanics are mostly unchanged from Deadly Alliance. Everybody stills gets two fighting styles and one weapon. Many combos have been shortened down, with few that have more than about five hits. Some characters like Kenshi still have some insanely long combos for 10 inputs or more, though, if you happen to be a genius at memorizing things.
