. Story
The story of how the heroes and villains of Mortal Kombat and
the DC universe could find themselves not only existing on the
same plain, but battling each other revolves around coincidental
victories in the respective realms by Raiden and Superman. In
Raiden's case it was a victory over Shao Kahn, while Superman
bested Darkseid. These occurred at the exact same time and
involved inter-dimensional elements, which somehow merged their
two enemies into one being, Dark Kahn, while allowing the
characters of the two universes to interact. In this merging the
powers of the heroes and villains are scrambled as well, making
some stronger than they ever were, and leaving others vulnerable
for the first time in their lives, allowing each to battle on
more or less equal footing. And battle they do without realizing
that the uncontrollable rage that they feel for each other is
actually the work of Dark Khan.
Gameplay
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe being a fighter, gameplay consists
of one-on-one battles, both in local play and online, in which
players can choose a character from either side who will face off
against a counterpart from the other. Each character has unique
attacks and special finishing moves, and fighting arenas vary
depending on whether your character comes from the Mortal Kombat
or DC universe. Keeping with the reputation for brutality in the
Mortal Kombat franchise, characters from this side will have
access to alities, while the historically less overly violent
DC characters will execute "heroic brutalities," which are end
moves where the nent while beaten, is not killed. The game
also features new gameplay mechanics such as: Freefall Kombat, in
which players can engage in extended combat while in midair;
Klose Kombat, during which the play angle moves to a close-up
view of the action; The Test Your Might mini-game where you smash
your nent through walls; and Rage Mode, which increases the
power of a character's attack by 50% and provides protection
against being stunned by an nent.
