Disappointing, but sadly not surprising. It sucks for those who upgraded their PCs just for MKX.

Me too. I still play the game every single day and couldn't wait to play as Bo Rai Cho.

NRS/WB is showing me the middle finger. Well, guess what, I'll return the favor. They are not getting my money ever again. I'm done with them and their games, for good.

Releasing the game and KP1 on PC, but not releasing KP2, is not only immoral, but also court case worthy. WB needs to be taught a lesson, but, fortunately for them, I don't live in the USA. So, NRS/WB, enjoy my fat FU to all of you!

And you, Ed Boon, I don't care about your insomnia. Probably your consciousness is suffering because of your lies and malignant corporate behaviour. It's a good sign actually, there's still time for redemption.

People were running petitions for Tremor and it worked, so maybe..?


I doubt it since considering the comments of that petition with all manner of slurs aimed at NRS.

I know people on PC are angry but that kind of discourse is strongly disadvised.

The only reason I can think of is that WB is stopping outsourcing the game out now considering what happenned on launch. I do not think NRS ever worked on the PC version.

Further solidifies my decision to be done with MKX. Better luck on MK11, NRS.

Blame WB. I doubt NRS has or had anything to do with the PC version or it's fate. NRS is likely under contract by WB...So even if Boon was like "Hey WB, we really want to make sure our PC fan base has a quality game as well..." and WB responds with "Fuck you, we don't care. Its not profitable at this point so we are abandoning it" There really isn't anything NRS or Boon can do about it.

I guess this is goodbye. I will not be going to this site anymore since WB Games forced me to purchase a new graphics card TWICE in the past year. First to replace my 560 ti with a 960 for MKX, then to replace my 960 with a 970 for Arkham Knight. Now you're cutting off PC players from not only additional content but also balance patches.

I'm not going to lie, it was fun. But WB Games have done nothing to make me want to purchase another game from them. This may change in the future as both EA and Capcom have corrected many business practices that I disagreed with (although EA still will not discount Bioware Points during sales) and I feel comfortable supporting both companies but never have I been treated this poorly by a publisher. Even Activision doesn't treat their players like this and they're the only other publisher who I will not give money to.

If you need to know why I won't give money to activision, it's due to Bobby Kotick's sexual harrassment issues, refusal to drop prices and stingy non-discounts along with DLC that costs more than the base game (Black Ops 1 is still $100 despite being released back in 2010), closure of profitable studios like Neversoft, half finished games like the Amazing Spider-Man 2, gloating about mistreating employees to shareholders, cash grab microtransactionfests like Skylanders, wasting Raven on making multiplayer maps despite their proven track record, ruining Soldier of Fortune, canceling Guitar Hero and annualizing Call of Duty. You would need to TRY to be as terrible of a publisher as Activision but somehow, in some way, WB Games actually became possibly worse.

So thanks WB, I'll be a few hundred dollars richer every year knowing that I won't be spending money on your titles. Perhaps I'll put that money in a savings account. Perhaps I'll be spending it on a few nice dinners for myself. But regardless of what I do with it, you will no longer have it. If you somehow stop treating customers like dirt, I may decide to purchase future titles but if you continue to outright spit in the faces of customers, I'll not only cancel my HBO subscription but I'll also avoid any Warner Bros films and DC Comics that I find.


Don't fret like this.

Keep in mind the PC Port was handled by the same company that was responsible for the previous gen ports. In other words, they failed miserably. This is what happens when a game designed specifically for consoles is handed off to a 3rd party developer to do the conversion (or vice versa). WB doesnt pick good vendors to handle their conversions, as evidenced with both MKX and AK. I totally get your frustration if PC is the only gaming platform you have, in which case I understand, but don't say you're done with the products if you do have another option. I'm sure they'll get their shit together eventually. I'm sure there will be another way. Not particularly fond of their business practices this generation myself, but I'm keeping some faith that it'll improve. I would've loved to have picked up MKX for PC on sale in the future...the modding potential + graphics/framerate potentially would've been amazing.

#pcmasterrace here

This is quite painful. I have a gamer PC and I bought MKX, been having awesome gamenights with two controllers, a few mates, anf several beers. Performance was off in certain patches but IMHO it alway got fixed quick.

I just don"t understand this sudden 'no love for pc' bullshit as if i recall correctly the game sold well on steam. Oh well... at least nothing will distract me from Fallout 4 in the near future.

Still. I call this a dick move.

WB really shat the bed with their ports of recent releases. Sucks for people that got roped in. I'm not surprised at all that the PC isn't getting any patches or new content though. NRS has likely never touched the PC version and it's really not their job to. WB contracted them to make the current gen console versions only. NRS would have to learn and integrate a whole different build of the game to support PC content and that's no small task. WB promised things they couldn't deliver and the blame lies squarely with them. It's WB who is choosing not to hire a studio to support that release.

In the future, as far WB games in general go, if ya can't get the version of the game that the primary developer is making then it's probably wise to take a pass. Or at least a generous "Wait and See" period. That's what I do anyway.

I mean, I'm pretty sure he's paid to rep his franchise even if he doesn't work on a port for it. lol As others have said, if anyone is to blame it's WB.

We don't know the details either way. To say it's WB's doing and that NRS is completely without fault is as naive as saying the opposite.

I mean, maybe but considering they (being WB) were involved with two incredibly shitty PC ports within months of eachother (MKX & Arkham Knight), that is VERY suspect. There were those reports about WB knowing how shitty the Batman port was and still releasing it anyway so the fingers seem to be pointing solely at them for giving the go-ahead on subpar projects to be sold to the public knowing they're faulty.

It's true that no one outside of NRS and WB has all the details, but it's not a question that NRS had nothing to do with the PC port. That was confirmed when the game was announced.

After High Voltage's performance on the PC port I can't say I'm surprised by this. I guess it sucks for PC players but after the reception of the port I suppose they can't be shocked by this news either.


According to moderator on the Official Forums, High Voltage are no longer involved with MKX and the reason why KP2 is not coming is because there is not a developer working on it. NRS only handles the console version.

Agreed, but it proves what a liar Boon really is. He probably never even saw the PC version no less played it and went into the version with Asskissing Joe and lied his ass off saying it was going to be awesome and just like the console versions.
