Overview
Description

Mortal Kombat: Special Forces is a 2000 action-adventure spin-off putting players in control of the Special Forces agent Jackson 'Jax' Briggs. Set before the events of the original Mortal Kombat tournament, the game details Jax's dangerous mission to track down the criminal mastermind Kano and rescue his missing partner, Lieutenant Sonya Blade. Players navigate through complex 3D environments, utilizing an arsenal of heavy weaponry and devastating martial arts combos. As the story unfolds, Jax finds himself pulled deeper into the supernatural conspiracies of the Mortal Kombat universe, culminating in an unforeseen and dramatic climax against his arch-rival.

WWF Attitude brings the excitement of 1990s professional wrestling to your screen, featuring a roster of more than 40 iconic superstars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and The Undertaker. Customize move sets and costumes to craft a unique competitor and dominate the squared circle. The game supports both single‑player and split‑screen multiplayer, with two‑man commentary from Shane McMahon and Jerry "The King" Lawler adding authentic broadcast flavor. Perfect for fans of classic wrestling action and competitive couch co‑op.
