Mortal Kombat 1 Player 1 Advantage update patch notes
A surprise update for Mortal Kombat 1 went live just a few moments ago. Now, NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Games have released the full set of patch notes to detail what all is included in the latest update.
The most important fix that comes included in this patch is the correction to the Player 1 advantage we saw previously. On top of this, there are move list corrections, as well as some character-specific fixes as well.
We have gone ahead and tested the P1 Advantage fix ourselves. We can confirm that the previous issue has been properly addressed.
