A great game.
Im not a really fan of mobile games. Or usually i just get bored of them very quickly. But MK Onslaught is the only game I play every day for the past couple months. I read some reviews where people say its pay 2 play, it actually is not. I have not purchased anything at all (no koins or krystals) the Boss Tower Liu Kang gives you 3 times free money and XP a day and the Scarlet tower gives you the books. You just need to keep playing in the arena and get XP and Coins and then you can buy more krystals or any upgrades etc. in Chasm you can also get a lot of things to upgrade your players. I wish there were more stories. - I guess 1story comes every once to three months. So no complaints at all. Best game, love it love it love it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Decent hero collector
As far as these style of games go this one is trying to do it well for sure.
The pricing on micros isn’t insane if you just want to dip a toe into spending, however, FTP players will have a very good way to get gear and progress using the kronicle events every month if you don’t want to spend.
The only place it seems lacking is arena, the rock/paper/scissors style tags they use seems like a good system till you get to the end game arena, then it does seemingly nothing.
I can have a full team of mind characters and still get completely destroyed by a body team that should be easy.
Once you get to the endgame, like most other systems like this, the mechanics matter much less than just overpowering your opponent with high tier characters

Great game with battery drain issue
UPDATE EDIT: I love this game for having fun with playing it and it is really enjoyable. I am impressed with the story mode, arena fight, graphics effects and eyes catching environments. But there are a big issues with the game. It is quick battery drain down my iPhone. I live in Dhaka city of Bangladesh, and my internet connection is OK with MK game log in based Wi-Fi and mobile internet data. However, last month, I installed the game and played it with login OK. Then after 10 minutes of gameplay, suddenly my phone was heat and hot. I have noticed that my phone battery drained so fast from 100% to 20% for 30 minutes gameplay. This issue has happened because of the graphics and heavy effects. This is why I gave you 4 out of 5 stats. Hey developers, just fix the horrible issue and make a new graphics optimization option and add it to the setting of this game.

Log-in issue and battery drain
I love this game for having fun with playing it and it is really enjoyable. I am impressed with the story mode, arena fight, graphics effects and eyes catching environments. But there are two big issues with the game. They're Log in issue (of latest version December 2023) and quick battery drain down my iPhone. Despite my internet connection is simply good, after updating the latest version of this game, I opened it and tapped log in. The logging in has been processing for lots of time. This issue wasted my time and my pleasure of playing MKO (Mortal Kombat Onslaught). I live in Dhaka city of Bangladesh. However, last month, I installed the game and played it with login OK. Then after 10 minutes of gameplay, suddenly my phone was heat and hot. I have noticed that my phone battery drained so fast from 100% to 20% for 30 minutes gameplay. This issue has happened because of the graphics and heavy effects. Hey developers, just fix these issues right now.

Boring
I will give the developers credit, they took Mortal Kombat and made it boring. That is an accomplishment. This game is what you would expect from a gatcha game that came out years ago. There are loading times between simple screens. Everything in the ui is obtuse and not user friendly. You want to equip a weapon? Multiple screens, you have to click on the slot and then go find the weapon you want. Most games now have a simple equip all button. Icons are small and hard to see on a phone and finding out info on what your skills do requires multiple screens, rather than just having them listed when you open up your character menu. You have to look at each one, one by one.
8 years ago this would have been a below average game, but now if it was not for the license no one would be playing.

Great game
Ok first of all- lotsa reviews are pointing out little things that don’t affect gameplay at all, it’s a new game, patches and updates will be coming out as needed. Saw someone complaining about needing coins to remove/exchange equipment. The cost is barely noticeable unless your completely out of coins.
The game is good. Arts great, battles are easy enough to pick up on quickly, pulls are what you expect from a gatcha type game few good, few bad… it is what it is.
As it’s new I’m sure they will be adding more events and content to make resource collection a bit easier-although they give away plenty, we of course still always need more lol.
This games definitely worth the play. Try it yourself before you let ignorant reviews push you away!

Game is good, premium characters too op
This game is fun, love the fact that there’s a whole other story for the campaign. Boss fights are fun and all the other things.
The reason for 2 stars, because in the arena mode, everyone has these premium characters from lucky rolls, while I have 4 equally leveled characters as well as I outplay them with 3 mind affinity against 2 body affinity’s which is a counter, but I still lose and can’t even kill one of the premium characters the other player has. I try different matchups, most of my characters have max level items but I still lose. I try everyday to try and roll for a premium character but my luck is awful apparently :) . Premium Kung Lao and FuJin are the most OP characters in the game.

Battery Killer
I’ve been enjoying playing this game this past week and I would like to play even more but wow does this game kill my battery. I have an iPhone 13 Pro and it’s microwaving my phone. Not only does it get hot but the battery is drained really quick to the point where one time I had to charge my phone twice (yeah I was playing a lot lol). Please add a graphics slider so we can choose to wether have good graphics at the cost of battery or lower them a bit and enjoy more battery life. I was really getting addicted to this game but until they do something about the game draining my battery I will not be playing it.

Sigh.
Originally I had written a massive review that lined out all of my issues. But I’ll just cut it down to the most basic: Micro. Transaction. City. This game is designed to be pay to win. It is designed to take your money. This is not f2p friendly. Genuinely one of the worst cases of this I’ve ever seen. God awful writing. Just. God awful. It makes MK4’s writing look good. This is on par with MK Annihilation’s terrible writing. Remember Sindel’s “too bad YOU will die!”? Yeah this game makes that look Shakespearean. Overtly dated. Same style of game as Street Fighter Duel. But Duel plays like a game developed and made in the last two years. Onslaught plays like it was developed and made around the same time as 11. Because it was. And nothing was changed. WB has got to get it together.
Update: you can’t even refill your event energy for free more than twice total and it costs as much as a pull. Jesus Christ this is embarrassing.

Has potential
The game itself has good ideas and the graphics and gameplay is quite good. However, there are many issues with the overall experience. Progression in all ways is terrible. You need different teams of all affinities to get higher in the boss towers which is critical for acquiring upgrade materials when it already takes forever to upgrade your core 4 units. Rewards from dailies and missions are minuscule compared to the terrible drop rates for decent units when summoning and the materials needed to upgrade that unit when you finally do get someone useful. You just end up getting stuck unless you spend a ton of money and then there’s pretty much nothing else you can do. I myself am willing to spend a little and have already, and even still I feel completely stuck. I will stick around for a bit but the game needs some serious changes and better rewards if the devs want people to stick around. Just feels too unforgiving right now. Also, the game will burn through your phone and kill the battery very fast.

Few Key Things Missing
Appreciate the level of detail and flexibility for free to play people. Few items of feedback: huge battery drain, identifiers missing, auto target select is off. Identifiers Missing: in skill descriptions it will state “other magic opponents” or “outworld teammates” but these are literally stated nowhere. Idk which of my team is outworld, netherrealm, or earth realm if I don’t know the lore. Auto Select Problems: when my teammates are on “auto” they will choose opponents with largest health or Quan Chi when he is invincible. The targeting system needs to be recalibrated to factor invulnerable opponents and low priority targets. Gold Shortage: after completing the campaign, there are no additional avenues to get gold aside from arena rewards and lui kang tower. Giving you like 100k/200k tops if you play it right? Should be more refreshing koins arena rewards (given the reset is every 12 weeks). I get this is a scheme to pay for gold but even the exchange rate is terrible. 1 million koins is 10 levels on a character above 60….. forcing people to wait weeks/months to upgrade.

Far better than expected
Game burns up the phone for a strategic style game but is worth it in it plays well looks good and the balance and reward system are good. The AI shows problematic issues that could be discussed away with added descriptors in abilities subtext. IE just had a vs battle with scorpion who (I didn’t see) doesn’t have a reason to have broken as he often does from fighting the trait compatible opponent directly in front of him to spear a far one he is weak against dragging them to him and stopping fighting the one he was winning against ensuring defeat in the battle. This since it is beyond control creates distaste but could be avoided if a hint of reason would be given for such things in character abilities. Still worth five stars for overall gameplay.

Ultra pay 2 win
I started playing and thought wow this is great.. Then you make it out of the first chapter and realize a couple things.. 1) your characters do not level up when fighting or do any activities. Which is a huge problem considering you won’t get anywhere if they aren't getting stronger. you cannot progress the story. 2) most games that are similar to this. Give you at least a couple opportunities to build a decent team without spending.. This game however gives you one shot to get a decent character without spending. I got Fujin.. pretty boring in my opinion, but I leveled him up and tried. Long story short I’m stuck on chapter 2 due to a ridiculous paywall. Im not against spending some cash but theres no guarantee of getting something decent. Game is flat out too expensive. they should give you a little bit more to keep you interested. I imagine they will update soon a lot of similar reviews say the same. Give us a little bit more opportunity to build a team we like. As for now, I’m not spending. Going to need to dangle a better carrot than that WB…

Okay for what it is I guess
I was expecting an epic battler but nah just some idle game with lots of in game purchases to progress or else you get stuck on ridiculous fights unable to progress. You either gotta wait and collect or buy some currency. But again for what it is, not too bad. Just wish you could have a bigger team of fighters like why add slots for six when you can only carry four? Changing their positions is literally pointless because I can put support up front and fighters immediately rush in to cover.

Bones to pick
Fun game/ cool graphics and environment. My main grudges are the game eats my battery and overheats my phone. Can play for about 30 minutes and my phone is down 60% and runs hot. I don’t have this issue with larger and multiplayer games at all. Another annoying Gacha game just like MK mobile except your team plays auto all at once and it’s not close up to see how cool your characters are.
Manage to hit wall way early grinding story mode doesn’t do anything if you have 3 star on mission. Haven’t seen any brutalities or fatalities, probably make you jump through hoops and over pay to get just like MK Mobile. I will be deleting this game soon if the battery consumption isn’t fixed. No game is worth destroying my iPhone 15s battery

Not as I expected to be
At first I was soo excited for the this game like you don’t understand. But, when I kept playing it made me not like it. I wanted to be more how the marvel: strike force game is to where I can pick an ability to fight my enemies, I can’t even pick an ability to fight my enemies I have to wait till the power move is up to finally fight them and it kinda cuts out the purpose of my characters. Second, it doesn’t give me enough money to summon a character cause my rewards every time I pass a level it doesn’t give the coins for it. Last, the voice overs if you gonna do a dialogue for a game at least have voices for all the characters not just some like I said it defeats the purpose of having a story mode. Sad to say but I will uninstall this game.

Log in bug?
Every time I try to start the game I get stuck on the loading screen for an hour plus and the text at the bottom says logging into account when I don’t even own an account. I know that the game is new and released a few days ago but I’m already experiencing problems and I haven’t even started the game, I can’t even play the game because I’m stuck on the loading screen FOREVER please fix this bug so I and others experiencing this problem can play the game.

Pay to win
Pay to win and extremly overpriced the stuff the give you at the start goes away in about 3.2 seconds and the only way to get better charecters is to spend like 60 bucks for a guaranteed 5 star and that with the 3 times value of each 30 dollar offer so they value it at like 180 for one charecter and you need minimum 4 for a team usually resources and progression is pretty fast at the start of the game but I guess nobody told them that or I mean maybe they just want you to pay to play I guess also doesn’t even feel like I’m playing the game rather just watching the computer play it for me I guys I could sit there and tap my screen randomly but that isn’t fun

Started off pretty fun but…
This game was fine and even enjoyable. You seen it before the gacha game where you spend a bit and hopefully you get that 5-star character that can pull you out from the trenches. This game isn’t different from that formula. I do have one big issue: My game constantly does this thing where 2 characters on my roster just don’t move and don’t hit. It doesn’t matter where I slot them in the pre-fight staging area. That is a HUGE deal when there isnt any manual commands and you’re at the mercy of RNG. I can’t RNG anything if my characters don’t move or attempt to fight. This needs to be fixed asap otherwise the game will lose players really quick. Guarantee it.

Coin wall gacha
Its good and i wanted to love it, it has a lot of potential but its not actually enjoyable after the first chapter. My reasoning is that there is no EXP for any characters for a victory. This then requires coin for leveling all characters which means you will always be poorly trying to earn more coin, waiting for kang tower, otherwise you cannot progress and you cannot diversify your character sets in any kind of pace.
I tried three different optimized ways of using all resources and none of them permits getting past part of the kitana chapter 3 regardless, the only factor that changes this is pure RNG getting god tier 5 stars not just one but two that go well together.
I even tried starter bundle but it does almost nothing to increase character progression. It was a fun experiment but its not on par to raid for a similar kind of comparison.
