With the many updates to Mortal Kombat XL, the NetherRealm Studios title is once again seeing new players coming in to give it a go. To help these new players out, YOMI’s REO has started a new tutorial series that focuses on the basics of the game.
In the first episode, REO talks about one of the most basic elements of the game’s interface: the health bar.
While MKXL’s health bar seems to be just the same as those appearing in any other fighter, REO points out the fact that it actually has notches that help give a player a better idea of exactly how much health they and their opponent have left. Understanding this aspect of the health bar can give players a better idea of what combos they need to land, as well as the sorts of risks they should be taking, in order to secure a victory.
