From a gameplay perspective it's probably my favorite game in the franchise.It also fixes a lot of issues that I had with mk11 gameplay. The kameos are a great mechanic and allow for a bunch of really creative ways to play and the roster is the best since mk9 with characters like Smoke,Kenshi,Ashrah and Havik returning. But the game doesn't feel like it was rushed to release with things like no pinning moves not available at launch and other small technical issues.
