Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe vs Mortal Kombat X
Side-by-side comparison of features, pricing, ratings, and alternatives.


Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is an arcade-style fighting game that brings together iconic champions from two distinct worlds. Following a catastrophic merging of Earthrealm and the DC Universe due to a clash between Raiden and Superman against their respective archenemies, characters experience violent rage outbreaks and must battle to uncover the truth. The gameplay blends classic 2D Mortal Kombat mechanics with 3D elements, focusing on accessible special moves rather than overly complex combos. The title features a total of 22 fighters, incorporating traditional Mortal Kombat Fatalities alongside toned-down Heroic Brutalities for DC heroes to respect their moral codes.
The game retains the two‑punch/two‑kick control scheme, adds a sprint gauge, and expands the three‑tiered energy system for X‑Ray, EX and combo‑breaker moves, while letting players use the environment as a weapon. Available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, it offers both single‑player story and robust online multiplayer modes for competitive play.
