Fans have taken to the likes of X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok to question NetherRealm's decision to market Mortal Kombat 1 as a $70 Switch release. It has been called "robbery" and "disrespectful" to users.

I don't like how many posts cater to outrage lately, true.

But I don't think this one is manufactured.

Yeah, manufactured might have been the wrong word. Pointless? Uncalled for?

But why would it be pointless or uncalled for? $70 for a rather old game?

Edit: I've been schooled. Is a brand new game with a confusing name. Still $70 for a console game; yikes.

This is a brand new game, they just gave it a confusing name
