Unfortunately, winning in a brutal death match doesn't make up for the lacking character selection.
The controls get a tad sticky at times, however the sweet taste of victory makes up for that. It's also the first time weapons are available to all characters. MK4 is of course the first addition to feature 3D rendered characters and enviroments. The manual provides data on special moves and fatalities for each of the in-game characters. Other modes of play include one-on-one simple clashes, two-on-two matches and three forms of endurance options. Mortal Kombat 4 supports keyboard (re-mapping is supported), game pad and joystick input and offers a tournament mode with up to four or eight character bracketing. There are now five towers to climb, each progressively more difficult than the one before. Each warrior possesses a specific weapon that can be stolen, dropped or picked up. Returning characters from previous games not only retain their special moves and combinations but can now use newly designed additional moves as well. An option to set up a team of fighters (controlled by you) to go against the CPU is also available. As in past iterations of the game, gameplay consists of selecting one of the characters and challenging either computer controlled characters or one human opponent for supremacy in the battle arena.
The total number of characters now available numbers 17, including two hidden warriors. Mortal Kombat 4 contains seven new warrior-fighters and offers more than nine 3D battle arenas. The war has been rekindled but this time mortals can win it! That was then, this is now: Shinnok has managed to escape from his prison of exile and with renewed menace threatens the world once again. He was exiled to the Netherealm at the hands of the fierce warrior Raiden. The basic story remains intact, a story that began with the defeat of the Elder God Shinnok thousands of years in the past.
The venerable series of Mortal Kombat games continues with Mortal Kombat 4 by Midway Games.
