The latest game in the Mortal Kombat franchise gives you the same core gameplay with a few new abilities and a plethora of playable characters.

Overview

Mortal Kombat: Armageddon is the latest installment in the critically acclaimed Mortal Kombat franchise. It was said to feature every Mortal Kombat character that had appeared in any of the past games, but it fell a bit short of its promise leaving some out, but it introduced two new characters named Daegon and Taven. The Wii version of the game includes one returning character absent from the PS2 and Xbox versions in Khameleon.

Features

Konquest - Konquest returns again in Armageddon telling the story of brothers Taven and Daegon and their awakening. The player controls Taven, while Daegon plots to destroy him. Throughout Konquest mode the player will unlock numerous characters and rewards for use in arcade mode. In the end, Taven will be unlocked as a playable character.

Kreate a Fighter - On top of the hordes of playable characters that the game comes with out of the box, there is a full fledged character customization feature that lets you create your own character and customize anything from its appearance, fighting style, stance, and even its button control scheme.

Kreate a Fatality - For the first time in the Mortal Kombat series, the player is given the ability to create their own fatality for their character. This comes at a cost though because the classic preset button combinations used in previous Mortal Kombat games was removed. With create a fatality you choose from a bunch of certain button combonations that you chain together to perform a multiple move fatality. The maximum number of moves you can do in one fatality is 11, but you must do them quick because you are given a time limit to complete each one.

Motor Kombat

Motor Kombat - Armageddon also introduces a new mini game to the series called Motor Kombat. It is very similar to games like Mario Kart in that you are given a choice of characters each with their own attacks that will help you slow down you opponents in your race to the finish line. The characters you get to choose from are Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Bo' Rai Cho, Jax, Baraka, Raiden, Kitana, Mileena, Cyrax, and Johnny Cage. There are multiple different tracks to choose from as well. You can choose from Bo' rai Cho's Brewery, Botan Jungle, Lin Kuei Raceway, Lost Pyramid, and Outworld Refinery.
