Is it still worth playing?

NetherRealm Studios' 2019 2.5D fighting game for consoles and Windows, with a story mode in which Kronika, the keeper of time, rewrites history after Shinnok's defeat. Fatal Blows become available when your health drops below 30 percent and can be used once per match, and Krushing Blows are critical hit versions of special moves that trigger under certain conditions. Characters walk more slowly and running has been removed, so matches have a slower pace, and combos depend on each character's precise inputs. Besides the story there are Klassic Towers, Towers of Time and the Krypt, where gold opens chests, plus local and online play. Even now, slower movement and fixed inputs for every character make each match a matter of careful positioning.
