Made obsolete by UMK3 but still deserves credit for speeding up the gameplay and creating some of the most memorable fatalities.

I prefer it to a lot of the later stuff. There was some fun in this system with juggles and whatnot.

But it is still kinda clunky.

I do not think the MK games (except possibly UMK3) have aged nearly as gracefully as many of the Capcom and SNK fighters from the same era. In just about every way besides the gameplay I do think MK2 holds up gracefully but the gameplay is kind of just okay.

By 2024 standards, maybe not amazing, but for when it came out, it deserves a lot of credit.

A huge impactful improvement over 1 and a pioneer in its own way, but there's been far better MKs released later
