If you’ve been struggling against Mortal Kombat X’s most recent DLC character, Tanya, there is some good news out there.
MKX Players on PlayStation 4 — soon on Xbox One — will now be greeted with a new patch that developer NetherRealm Studios says will “normalize” Tanya by removing invincibility frames from her teleports and more. It should also be noted that both Kung Lao and Shinnok have also received a slight nerf to some of their specials moves that left them with a 20+ frame advantage on block. The update, which is also a compatibility pack for Tremor, adds the “Klassic” Ermac costume and offers a first look at the costumes for Klassic Pack 2 and reveals Tremor’s variations as well the content of Klassic Fatality Pack 2.
Klassic Fatality Pack 2:
- Kung Lao: Hat Split from MK2
- Jax: Arm Rip from MK2
- Kitana: Fan Decapitation from MK2
- Mileena: Man-Eater from MK2
Tremor variations:
- Aftershock
