Mortal Kombat 11 1.15 Update Patch Notes | Minor balance changes

The Mortal Kombat 11 1.15 update patch notes contain some decent changes especially considering the game’s balance. The balance changes might not be as vast as the last patch, but they do have some decent tweaks. Most of these have to do with The Joker, the game’s most recent DLC fighter that joined the game late last month. These patch notes also coincide with the game’s newest Kombat League season. Just be warned that, like the other updates, this patch is only currently out for PS4 and Xbox One. It’ll be out later for the PC and Switch.

Mortal Kombat 11 1.15 Update Patch Notes | Minor balance changes

Weirdly enough, the 1.15 patch doesn’t have much outside of the balance changes. Some of them are some bug fixes while other characters had some moves adjusted. They’re incredibly minor tweaks like Erron Black’s away and back punch move now has one more frame of hit advantage along with a different hit reaction. Kano’s up and back punch getup attack and his back punch now have more range. Kotal Kahn’s Fatal Blow is also better, too, as it has a different reaction when hitting airborne opponents and has a bigger hit region. These characters needed some buffs, after all. You can read the exact details below.

The Joker saw the most changes, which makes sense, given how he is the newest. He mostly got some of his rare bugs fixed but that also includes his most prevalent bug: the throw escape bug. Players could escape either of his throws with the same button, which is different from every other throw. Now, that is correct and players will have to press the correct escape button depending on the throw.
