Is it still worth playing?

A standalone update of Mortal Kombat 3, this 1995 arcade fighting game added the characters Reptile, Kitana, Jade and Scorpion. It also brought a 2 on 2 mode with up to three human players, an eight player Tournament mode and an extra Master difficulty. Shao Kahn's Lost Treasures, prizes that lead to extra fights or cutscenes, open after finishing the main game or the Tournament. Some characters gained new moves or combos, other combos were made weaker, and chain combos can start with a jump punch or vertical jump kick. Only regular uppercuts send an opponent to the level above in multi-layered stages. The opponent's AI was also improved. For a night with friends, modes for several players on one side are still a good choice.
