Gameplay

This two-player fighting game, released in 1996, offers a digitized version of Mortal Kombat's signature brutal combat. Players choose from a roster of characters—including Smoke, who is immediately accessible—and face off against each other in one-on-one battles. The gameplay revolves around executing a variety of punches, kicks, and special moves to deplete an opponent’s health bar while defending against their attacks. Mortal Kombat 3 represents a bootleg arcade release based on the Sega Genesis version of the game. This means that certain aspects may differ from the original arcade experience. The familiar fighting mechanics remain central, allowing players to perform finishing moves and explore character-specific abilities. Expect straightforward versus gameplay with the distinct visual style associated with the Mortal Kombat series.
