FULL STORY
======================================================================

NetherRealm Studios has released a new update for Mortal Kombat 1 , rolling 
it out across PS5 , Xbox Series X |S, and PC, but unfortunately, Nintendo 
Switch players are having to wait a little longer for any sort of update. 

Designed to target in-game fixes and character-specific adjustments, the 
update was rolled out alongside a Tweet via the Mortal Kombat 1 page, stating 
that The latest patch is now available for #MK1 across platforms. Be sure to 
update your game to make sure you are kombat ready. But, when you visit the 
official patch notes , theres no reference to the Nintendo Switch. The latest 
patch is now available for #MK1 across platforms. Be sure to update your game 
to make sure you're kombat ready.See all patch notes here:

The release of Mortal Kombat 1 on the handheld hybrid console hasnt been 
smooth sailing thus far. In fact, Mortal Kombat 1 on Nintendo Switch has been 
slammed as garbage by gamers , so the release of a patch to target its 
performance is definitely needed. But, this lack of acknowledgment within the 
patch notes isnt going unnoticed. 

In response to the Tweet, and in turn the update as a whole, the frustration 
of Switch players is being shared. Many users have replied to the Tweet 
asking when a Nintendo Switch patch will arrive, and why it seems to be 
missed out on the list when its the platform that most desperately needs some 
work, even going so far as to ask whether the Switch version is being 
forgotten. Switch patch? Any acknowledgement of it unlike the radio silence 
that's been going on? @noobde so disappointed October 2, 2023 See more 

However, a patch on Nintendo Switch isnt the only thing players are 
requesting. The game still has some serious crashing issues, including 
crashes across Xbox Series X|S and PS5 when a female kombatant is in the 
Finish Her sequence, and throughout the Invasion mode. These are just a few 
issues being brought to light by players in response to the most recent patch 
notes. Can we fix the crashing on female kombatants when they're put in a 
finish state please! October 2, 2023 See more 

With Ed Boon clarifying that the state of the Nintendo Switch port wasnt 
ideal, and promising it would be fixed soon, hopefully, it isnt too long 
before the game receives a well-needed update on the console - its just 
impossible to say when exactly we can expect to see it. 

 Despite its performance on Nintendo Switch, Mortal Kombat 1 could be one of 
the best fighting games . However, if youre looking for a little less 
hand-to-hand combat, you might want to consider looking at the best FPS games
