Updated October 21, 2023 by Ritwik Mitra: The release of Mortal Kombat 1 has been an absolute hit, with many people loving NetherRealm's work on the franchise once again. As always, the fighting action is in a class of its own, with the story mode also being a light-hearted romp featuring some of Mortal Kombat's best characters who have been rebooted in a new universe that was established following the events of Mortal Kombat 11.

Most people may have shifted to this new game, but there are still many people who can't get enough of MK11 and still love playing it... especially with the new Mortal Kombat game costing a pretty penny. Pairing this title with mods is a great way to enhance the fun one can experience with this title.

12 UMK3 Klassic Ninja Skin Pack

• Creator: SHAAR

The classic look of Mortal Kombat is something that fans still remember fondly to this day. After all, this fighting game is one of the most iconic titles ever made and is partly responsible for the ESRB rating that fans still see on their video games to this day. The original game had to make do with limited space on cartridges, which led to sprites being color-swapped and used for most fighters.

The fact that technical limitations led to the iconic outfits that Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Reptile are known for is pretty fascinating in its own right. Players can bring back these legendary outfits that let them enjoy the glory days of Mortal Kombat with a fresh coat of paint once again.

Most people frown upon horror movies as nothing more than popcorn flicks made exclusively to deliver cheap jumpscares, utilizing done-to-death horror tropes that people can predict with ease. While these criticisms are understandable, what people should realize is that grouping every horror movie under this bracket isn't particularly wise or accurate either.

After all, many great horror movies are true works of cinema, and that's not even mentioning the many iconic monsters and villains in horror movies that have become a mainstay of pop culture. Mortal Kombat 11 players can pay homage to these characters with this great and simple skin mod that lets players rip apart heads and limbs while dressed up as iconic horror villains.

3 60 FPS And Ultra Wide Screen Support

• Creator: Endri Lauson

The gameplay of Mortal Kombat is 60 FPS, which is a blast to witness. However, this doesn't apply to the menu screens and some fatalities, where the game is limited to 30 FPS for what we can only assume was cinematic purposes. While the intention behind this limitation is understandable, it's still rather odd that there's no option to remove it.

Thankfully, this simple mod takes care of these issues with the greatest of ease. Along with enabling 60 FPS in all of the game's scenes, the mod also adds ultra-widescreen support to the game by removing the black bars that would appear otherwise.

How To Install

• Download the assets of this mod.
• Place it in the Binaries/Retail folder with the .exe file.
• Launch the FpsCapRemoverByEndri_v2.0.2.exe file to activate the effects of this mod!
