Numerous Functions in Mortal Kombat 11 Require a Network Connection
Mortal Kombat 11 requires a network connection to unlock a large part of the content. Such rumors appeared on the Internet and were allegedly confirmed by a deleted tweet by one of its creators. In addition, the presence of microtransactions has been confirmed.
The launch of Injustice 2's Multiverse mode, in which we take part in duels on special rules.
- Krypt, Time Towers and achievements in Mortal Kombat 11 will be unavailable in offline mode;
- The information comes from people who managed to get copies of the game before its release and was confirmed by a NetherRealm Studios employee (in an tweet that was later deleted);
- The creators confirmed the presence of microtransactions, which will enable faster acquisition of cosmetic elements.
Some people pointed out that perhaps the creators deliberately blocked access to these attractions so that such leaks would not reveal everything that the game has to offer. In this case, we would gain access to them after ing the day one patch. It would make sense, but it would not please those who prefer to play offline. Unfortunately, it looks like it's not just a matter of updating. Another Reddit reported a Twitter post posted by a NetherRealm Studios employee. This one was supposed to announce that Mortal Kombat 11 required a network connection not only to unlock achievements and use the shop, but also to play in the Krypt and Time Towers. The tweet has already been deleted, and for a change, nobody managed to take a screenshot of it. However, Tyaren from Resetera forum confirmed that the aforementioned items are unavailable in offline mode even after installing the day one patch.
Although we still do not have an official confirmation of these reports, the information has curbed the enthusiasm of many players. This solution means that without playing online we won't get anything in Mortal Kombat 11 except the characters unlocked for progress in the story mode. Particularly disappointed are not only people with an unreliable internet connection but also the owners of Nintendo Switch. They were counting on the possibility of acquiring content while using the console in mobile mode, for example on the way to work, which in the current situation may be a bit difficult. Some also ask why you need a network connection to play in Time Tower mode when you don't need it for the aforementioned Multiverse in Injustice 2.
This is not the only piece of news that hasn't made Mortal Kombat fans happy in recent days. The developers will keep their word on the another production released by Warner Bros. Interactive became infamous de facto for forcing a long grind on players who wanted to see the true end of Tallion's story without reaching into their wallets.
