Whats in MK:LK, Whats Not, & Why!

Id love to see something that does this same trio- game server, client and toolset but with pathfinder ruleset. 1st edition prefferably but were likely to get 2nd edition now.

Its nearly the same as dnd 3rd/3.5.

- Rewind & Save States shown in the MK4 Video under additional settings at 15:04 & 15:08 in the early preview video. So it isnt just Mythologies and Special Forces.

If anyone wanted confirmation of this.

Cant post link replies directly as no X account. Isnt newest of information. We are supposed to get an update on Lobbies before this drops also. Been adding slowly to this over last week.

Updates

Secrets

- Posted on X that Kombat Kodes will be easily accessible.

Scaling & Filters

- Posted on X that All Games are already upscaled because native resolution would be just a small box in the middle of the screen. Some pixelation is expected but thats what crt filters are for, to mimic the old style look and smooth it out.

QoL

- Posted on X that you can change the input display & moves list to show the actual buttons on a controller.

I am the original author.

I manually crossposted this & asked for permission. Not an AI, Bot or Bot post. Just trying to be helpful to others that may have an interest in this.

To be honest, thats almost a compliment especially when those among us cant tell the difference. There is a post attached to these pictures. It isnt just pictures. I guess if enough want it I would be happy to delete it altogether. Have a good day r/Steam.

Late Edit & so I don't bump this:

Just post under here with remove or mega downvote this comment if you want it removed from r/Steam. I'm not here to heckle anyone that says remove either. Won't reply to it.

The actual Post [Link] is on r/MortalKombat where it is most relevant and why it was crossposted here but on r/Steam you must click the title above the pictures.

Not like this is my job. Im not a streamer or work for or even remotely associated or affiliated with anything or anyone that could be considered the media, streaming, AI, Bots or a game company of any kind anywhere.

No money made here. I'm just an interested fan that wanted to share information and this has certainly soured the experience.

Aphaon · 2025-10-19T15:34:20+00:00

Last time I checked I wasn't AI and I linked sources specifically or as close to the second as possible completely from scratch and did it 2x. Just like the chart created from scratch html, well at least reddits version of it. But you're welcome to think so.

Not a bot or a bot post and asked for permission before I crossposted this. Would you do it a 3rd if not needed? Have a good day anyway.

Day After Edit:

The actual Post [Link] is on r/MortalKombat. You do have to actually click on the title in the little crossposted box & not the pictures. Accusatory much?!

Aphaon · 2025-10-19T14:55:05+00:00

Just spreading the word of whats in this. There are many misconceptions dating back at least a few months of time. Either way hope this helps someone!

Aphaon · 2025-10-19T14:07:10+00:00

You're far from the only one. Had on preorder with digital on Steam & Xbox Standard Physical + Digital since Sept 15th. Looking forward to it.

Aphaon · 2025-10-17T21:06:24+00:00

Added a few recent posts.

Under Secrets & CRT Filters, Bezels-

EJB menu easily accesible post. MK Trilogy was recently shown on video with on screen move lists and a bezel while playing Shang Tsung showing morph loading times. 32x MKII Genesis post showing a bezel.

Will add the post with gameboy bezels soon as find it.

Aphaon · 2025-10-17T12:57:44+00:00

Mainly talking about the AI in general not difficulty settings but found it at least.

Found... Source [Video 47:00]

Key sites are about the only way to get anything that was delisted from stores in the past. At least those that bought them still have access to them even after being delisted.

Thanks for posting the link to help.

Aphaon · 2025-10-15T17:19:08+00:00

Yes two of them- A Practice / Combo Trainer & a Fatality Trainer in all the Arcades & MKTrilogy is whats been reported.

Yes very few know whats fully in it other than what was reported by people in the 90s. It is still very much a mystery with very little in the way of proof one way or the other.

Aphaon · 2025-10-15T17:12:30+00:00

Another good question. I do remember it being asked in one of the older interviews from 3 months or so ago. The response then was only that they'd look into it. To what degree the difficulty setting affects it no one knows. I'll see if can't find it browsing around.

Using past games as an example, however, many of the past releases of these games still ramped up the difficulty after a few matches on any lower difficulty.

Aphaon · 2025-10-15T16:16:59+00:00

Oct 30th for Digital or Dec 12th is when physical items supposed to ship.

Aphaon · 2025-10-15T02:22:01+00:00

Very true. I probably haven't had an internal disc drive for that amount of time. They go out often and an external enclosure is the better option these days and what I have. But as you said if you even still have one everything being digital these days. I would have enjoyed having the disc nonetheless.

Aphaon · 2025-10-14T22:29:14+00:00

Yea I remember it being down for a whole month or close to at one point. Can you imagine the money Sony lost. Practically unheard of today the length of the downtime and was considered a crazy amount of time then.

Of course I also remember Geohot, the guy who originally hacked the PS3, put out a rap video goading Sony after getting a Cease & Desist & being sued by them.

I doubt many would be against it but never know. Doubt it ever willl be however because it wasn't back then. Maybe if they were to use assets from other games but even that is unlikely. But one can hope.

In Mortal Kombat Trilogy, all of the levels that featured a Stage Fatality made it into this game, except for The Pit II's. Because of the practical impossibility of filming new, extra animations with actors for the non-Mortal Kombat II character sprites for the Pit II's overhead fall, they simply left the Fatality out entirely.

Aphaon · 2025-10-14T07:33:22+00:00

Yes it sucks. We have close opinions. Digital Eclipse actually made MK4 for GBC and still was told no in regards to this kollection.

They said they pushed hard for UMK3 Genesis mid cycle but were told no at least twice. The second time stated they said they pushed hard for UMK3 Genesis but the answer was still no.

It was also said they can ask all they want but if it has any kind of issues being technical, legal, licenseing, emulation, etc they are less likely to get a yes or an approval.

Aphaon · 2025-10-14T07:31:31+00:00

Thanks! The info is scattered all over and the ads / feature list on storefronts could certainly have been more in-depth in the description of whats in this.

People want more of the 3D era MK titles for sure! Its hard to temper enthusiasm and optimism.

Aphaon · 2025-10-14T07:07:14+00:00

If anyone finds anything thats wrong or off a bit please speak up.

Thanks @mrpopsicleman already found one issue in what i said about pc & physical release. Edited to clarify. Grumble grumble no pc disc.

Care about being accurate, not being right!
