A new Mortal Kombat 1 update is live on PC, Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. And alongside the update, developer NetherRealm Studios has released the patch notes, which in turn not only reveal, but detail everything the update does to the fighting game.
NetherRealm Studios is calling the new MK1 update the “October Update,” and unfortunately, it does not feature any new content or any new features. There are a plethora of changes and improvements to the game though.
