NetherRealm Studios has answered the calls of Mortal Kombat 11 players on the Nintendo Switch by releasing a significant update designed to enhance performance and address graphical issues. Since its early access release, the Switch version of this iconic fighting game has faced criticism for its visual and performance disparities when compared to the PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S editions.
The concerns persisted even after the game’s official launch on September 19, but Ed Boon, the game’s director and series creator, assured fans that an update was on the horizon. Now, nearly a month later, the first patch for the Nintendo Switch has finally arrived, and it appears to have resolved many of the issues that players have been contending with.
This comprehensive update not only tackles visual and performance problems but also brings stability improvements and bug fixes to the game. Additionally, Mortal Kombat 11 on the Nintendo Switch benefits from gameplay balance adjustments and localization fixes, providing a more polished gaming experience.
One notable inclusion in this update is the official introduction of season one of Invasions, a unique single-player mode characterized by an RPG-style board game and challenges. During the game’s initial release, the Nintendo Switch version lacked this crucial content, setting it apart from its platform counterparts. However, Warner Bros. Games has remained true to its commitment by adding this feature, enriching the gameplay experience for Mortal Kombat enthusiasts on the Nintendo Switch.
