Mortal Kombat, commonly abbreviated MK, is a science fantasy series of fighting games created by Ed Boon and John Tobias. The first four renditions and their updates were developed by Midway Games and initially released on arcade machines. The arcade titles were later picked up by Acclaim Entertainment for the home console conversions. Beginning with Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, Midway Games exclusively created home versions of Mortal Kombat up until Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. Following Midway's bankruptcy, the franchise was picked up by Warner Bros. in July 2009 and became a part of the Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment Branch.
The series takes place in a fictional universe that consists of six surviving realms which, according to in-game backstories, were created by the Elder Gods. The Mortal Kombat: Deception manual described the six realms as: "Earthrealm, home to such legendary heroes as Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Liu Kang, Kung Lao, and Jax, and also under the protection of the Thunder God Raiden; Netherrealm, which fiery depths are inhospitable to but the most vile, a realm of demons and shadowy warriors; Outworld, a realm of constant strife and where Emperor Shao Kahn claims this realm as his own; Seido, The Realm of Order, whose inhabitants prize structure and order above all else; The Realm of Chaos, whose inhabitants do not abide by any rules whatsoever, where constant turmoil and change are worshipped here; and Edenia, which is known for its beauty, artistic expression, and longevity of its inhabitants." The Elder Gods decreed that the denizens of one realm could only conquer another realm by defeating the defending realm's greatest warriors in ten consecutive Mortal Kombat tournaments.

One of my favorite games from childhood, Teken and Moral Kombat, I started playing Mortal Kombat on my SEGA and played on my PS1 also saw "Mortal Kombat" movie(it's pretty old aswel) but for many years now I didnt play in it, I heard that in 2011 they released a new Game version - "Mortal Kombat 9" with amazing graphics but I aint really interested in it that much anymore.
-Still thx for these characters, <3 for Jax.

I played the first Mortal Kombat games until 3rd part on either NES, SEGA or Arcade. I played the 4th part on PC. Other than that, I don't like the newer ones. I like the dark theme in the game, way more darker than Street Fighter. It has one of the best and most underrated game soundtracks ever (Reptile's theme for example).
