Mortal Kombat 1 developer NetherRealm has released a brand new update for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC – but not Nintendo Switch. The new Mortal Kombat 1 update was originally scheduled to launch late last week, but was delayed due to a back-end issue. The Mortal Kombat 1 update fixes one of the biggest problems with the game, particularly if you’re playing as the second player.
Indeed, as you can see from the patch notes below, the Mortal Kombat 1 update seemingly fixes the Player 1 advantage issue.
The issue could cause Player 2 to push their opponent away further during certain combo sequences. This means that while player 1 can execute lengthy combos, the second player would come up short.
Elsewhere, NetherRealm has corrected the move lists, performed a variety of localisation fixes, and solved an issue with Stryker and Sektor’s unbreakable attacks.
There are also a number of individual character fixes, for the likes of Goro, Kung Lao, Ashrah, Havik, Shujinko and Jax.
That’s on top of a selection of balance fixes for certain moves. You can see the full list of Mortal Kombat 1 patch notes below…
