Despites a high launch price and few new costumes, MK11 Aftermath pruposes three new cool caracters, with Robocop as a guest star, a new pretty amazing cinematic mode.

While not revolutionary by any stretch, Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath breathes new life into the experience in smart and welcome ways. With the exception of the average Robocop, the new characters are unique and brimming with potential, and the story content is a short but sweet trip through the world of Mortal Kombat post-MK11 - hefty price-tag aside.

Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath brings a whole lot of content to an already massive fighting game, and makes it even better. A definite buy for the fans.

Although the most significant changes to Mortal Kombat 11 come from an update that doesn’t require you to put down more money for an expansion, Aftermath still manages to be a worthwhile addition for its story mode and Shang Tsung’s exceedingly fun performance alone.

The new DLC brings more fun to an already great game, however, it should have been available at a more reasonable price point.

All in all, MK11: Aftermath is a fun reason to revisit an aging game. The new story is enjoyable for Shang Tsung alone, and the new characters add a bit to the game. However, if you've been keeping up with MK, then the $40 price tag might be too heavy for the amount of content that you get. Once the price comes down, it'll be a worthwhile way to round out Mortal Kombat 11's story. You'll get to arrest evil sorcerers as Robocop, and isn't that what we've all wanted to do?

It is a steep price for three characters and a new three-hour campaign, but the quality is there. For fans, it is a no-brainer, but for casuals the barrier to entry is high.

In terms of the quality of the content, Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath is a great addition to a genre that typically only sees smaller updates like characters and stages. Shang Tsung taking a lead role brings a classic Mortal Kombat feel back to the story that has long since abandoned the more grounded conflict between the realms for events taking place on a much grander scale across time. While its price as an add-on may be pretty high for what it ultimately delivers, being part and parcel of a complete collection of Mortal Kombat 11 makes it a great entry point for new players who didn’t pick the brutal fighter up since it released last year.

Although the steep price may be tough to swallow, Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath is an impressive addition to the core game. The new additions to the roster are (generally speaking) a blast to use, and the additional story beats give fresh life to some of the more colorful faces of the franchise.

Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath Kollection is a great re-release, including an interesting additional story that expands the game world and adds three cool characters, as well as a full "battle set" with six new fighters. All of them have their own unique features and are aimed at different audiences. The new chapters of the story are well-directed and represent a fascinating mini-series with breaks for gameplay. In addition, the new arenas, as well as the introduction of Stage Fatality and Friendship, will please old fans of the series.

Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath gives us a delicious performance after an already impressive first showing, but nothing much else.

While this is a good DLC story-wise, there was a lot more to be expected in terms of other content - especially considering its hefty price.

Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath is the biggest update for the game yet. It adds three hours to the already epic storyline and next to that three great characters, Sheeva, Fujin and RoboCop. Next to the new story and characters the bloodshed can be varied in new levels with stage fatalities of in a more peaceful matter with a friendship. The only real downside to the content is the price. If you already have the game and other DLC this is a pretty steap deal. Otherwise, this is the moment to step in the game.

Ask yourself two questions: Did you love the Mortal Kombat 11 campaign and want more? Are you dying to play as Fuijin, Sheeva, and/or RoboCop? If the answer is yes to either of these questions, then MK11: Aftermath is a definite buy if you enjoyed the gameplay of Mortal Kombat 11. If not, then I’d hold off.

Unfortunately, the Aftermath expansion pales in comparison to previous Kombat Pack in terms of both content and price. Without a doubt, this expansion has less value than Kombat Packs and is not recommended since other than a story section and 3 new characters, it has nothing to offer

Blood and guts are still in the Mortal Kombat saga, and this edition is the most complete to date, with added characters, settings and stories.
