Mortal Kombat 12 Story
)
Generally speaking, the Mortal Kombat video game series is one of the most popular franchises in gaming history due to its unique story telling and fast-paced gameplay.
Going by how the Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath expansion ended, we could see a likely reboot in Mortal Kombat 12 and an end to the trilogy, with Lord Raiden and protector of Earthrealm ascending to godhood, Kronika was defeated, and the sands of time had been extinguished.

If MK12 is going to be based on the animated movies that have followed the launch of Mortal Kombat 11.
Then there’s a probability that many of the characters and ideas from MK11 will return in Mortal Kombat 12.
Mortal Kombat 12 is also expected to be a 2D fighting game, going by what its predecessor showed us.
But we also expect an expansion on this system in Mortal Kombat 12, as well as more exciting new features and characters.
