MK1 on Switch Missing Key Mode at Launch
Mortal Kombat 1: The Good, The Bad, and The Missing
It’s the dawn of a new era for the Mortal Kombat franchise, as Mortal Kombat 1 hits the market today with reimagined characters and a fresh new story. But unfortunately, the Nintendo Switch version seems to have fallen a little short, sporting lackluster graphics and missing a key game mode. Ah, the joys of being a Switch player!
Let’s start with the missing mode, shall we? Invasions mode, a single-player experience where players embark on board-game-like missions and minigames, has left Switch players wanting more. At launch, all they get is the introductory Cage Mansion stage. The rest of the content, featuring the legendary Scorpion, is nowhere to be found. Talk about a tease!
But fear not, weary Switch warriors, for Warner Bros. has heard your cries of disappointment. They offered a brief mea culpa on the official Mortal Kombat support site, acknowledging the missing content and assuring players that it was removed “to ensure the best possible experience for Switch players at launch.” How noble of them. They promise to release the full first season of Invasions content “in a matter of weeks.” Here’s hoping the delay doesn’t make the season feel like an eternity!
Now, let’s address the elephant in the room: the graphics. Oh, the graphics! Switch players couldn’t help but notice the stark difference between the Switch version and other consoles. Some even went as far as calling the $70 price tag “disrespectful.” Ouch! Looks like the Switch got the short end of the graphical stick this time.
But hey, it’s not all doom and gloom. Mortal Kombat 1 is still available on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, PC, and of course, the Switch. Along with the game, the first Kombat Pass is up for grabs, featuring an impressive roster including Quan Chi, Ermac, Takeda, Omni-Man, Peacemaker, and Homelander. No release dates for these characters have been announced yet, so keep your fingers crossed and your fatalities at the ready!

Hang in there, Switch warriors! The Mortal Kombat chaos will unfold on your console soon enough, and you’ll be able to deliver bone-crushing fatalities with glee.
