Mortal Kombat 11 launched this week, but it hasn’t been entirely smooth sailing. Players have taken issue with some features of the game such as Towers of Time, particularly that it was too difficult and unfair. NetherRealm Studios has been looking to address the situation with hot fixes and patches.
NetherRealm has confirmed that two Switch updates are in the works. One of these, which should be out within the next couple of days, will involve character tuning to reduce difficulty in Tower of Time. The second patch will reduce AI difficulty and provide players with a thank you gift.
Here’s the full rundown:

We are continuing to implement a variety of initiatives in our IP expansion business. Starting in April, we launched a T-shirt collaboration with UNIQLO CO., LTD. in various regions of the world earlier this month. We will continue our efforts to increase opportunities for people to have access to Nintendo IP and increase the value of that IP, which is the source of our competitive edge.

Next, I will cover our mobile business. We are continuously implementing events and updates and adding more ways to satisfy consumers as we work to optimize how we operate each application. Overall revenue from the mobile business has expanded compared to the previous fiscal year. As previously mentioned, we will release both Dr. Mario World and Mario Kart Tour this summer. This means we will be operating a total of six applications globally starting this summer.
As we announced the other day, we are accepting applications for closed beta testing of Mario Kart Tour. The closed beta is scheduled to start on May 21 (Pacific Daylight Time). Based on the information we gather from this testing and from the opinions of the participants, we will proceed with final preparations for release.
The six applications including Mario Kart Tour deal with different IP, and the goals and the characteristics for the
applications also differ. Going forward, we will leverage the ubiquity of mobile devices to expand the number of
people who have access to Nintendo IP through multiple applications like these.

We are also bringing an even richer variety of new titles from other software publishers as we enter the third year of Nintendo Switch. What you see here is just a sample. These will range from evergreen titles for video game fans to titles that can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age or gender, characteristic titles created by indie developers, a variety of genre-specific games, and more. By bringing them together, the Nintendo Switch library will continue to meet consumers’ diverse tastes.
Many publishers are developing titles for Nintendo Switch because it has met our expectations of widespread adoption, and because we made our development environment available from the very beginning. The number of Nintendo Switch development kits shipped to publishers continues to greatly exceed the number of kits for any of our previous platforms, and many developers are creating titles for Nintendo Switch.
