Mortal Kombat 11, fans angry at the end of support
Mortal Kombat 11
In the last few hours, through a post on his Twitter profile, NetherRealm has announced the end of support for Mortal Kombat 11. We are talking about news that comes with no small surprise, especially for players who were still waiting for the arrival of other patches. As specified in the tweet, the development studio has made this decision to “focus on its next project.”After just over two years, therefore, Mortal Kombat 11 will no longer receive new characters or DLC in general. This news has left many fans with their mouths, complaining about the end of the release of updates. However, it is good to specify that NetherRealm never actually talked about the end of the release of patches, which is why they could continue to arrive.
The problem, according to users, would have been precisely the cessation of the balancing of the characters: we therefore hope for more specific details from the developer, which in fact could also arrive in the next few hours. In fact, it would be very strange that the title's support ended just two years after its release. In fact, we remember how Bandai Namco or Capcom are still continuing to release updates for their Tekken 7 or Street Fighter V, precisely to support the community and continue to improve their works.
NetherRealm is now focusing on its next project and after more than two years of supporting Mortal Kombat 11, DLC for the game, including characters, has come to an end.

However, the announcement of works on a new project, not yet announced, is very interesting. While it is legitimate to have expectations regarding the successor of Mortal Kombat 11, many believe that NetherRealm has long been working to make Injustice 3. Unfortunately, nothing has been specified about the next project, nor how long it has been in development at the software house. However, Mortal Kombat 11 still managed to please players all over the world, totaling more than eight million copies sold to date.

Mortal Kombat 11 will not receive any more DLC, NetherRealm says
NetherRealm Studios announced on Twitter that it is no longer creating new DLC for Mortal Kombat 11. The studio will now focus on creating an entirely new project after supporting Mortal Kombat 11 with new content for about two years.
Mortal Kombat 11 was released in 2019 and has seen a rather healthy stream of DLC that added 12 new characters to the roster, which increased the total number of fighters in the game to 35. Many DLC characters, such as Fujin and Mileena, were characters from previous Mortal Kombat titles. However, NetherRealm Studios added five guest characters from different franchises: Spawn, Robocop, Rambo, Terminator, and The Joker from the DC comics appeared in the game as guest DLC.

Interestingly, the tweet did not indicate that it will cease support for the game in terms of patches, balancing, or ladder updates. With that in mind, there is a possibility that NetherRealm will still have an active hand in the life of Mortal Kombat 11. However, it will no longer add new content to the game.
For players who are interested in getting the full experience of Mortal Kombat 11, NetherRealm Studios released Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate in November. This ultimate edition includes all of the game’s story and character DLC content, in addition to costume DLC like the “Klassic MK Movie” skins that made certain characters resemble their 1995 movie counterparts.
