Mortal Kombat X Is The Best Selling Launch In Franchise History (Causing Connection Problems)

Mortal Kombat X has been one of the most anticipated games coming out this year. Full stop. The frenzy over the game has been overwhelming for everyone, and now it is out, people are certainly having fun discombobulating opponents all over the shop.

That's why it shouldn't be surprising to hear that it's been the largest launch in the franchises history. So popular that some are experiencing online connectivity issues. Speaking on Twitter, Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon said:

Thank you everyone for making Mortal Kombat X the biggest launch in MK history. You made the game FAR exceed our wildest expectations….!!

The Mobile & console games have had literally millions of players getting online in a really short period of time, hitting our servers HARD!

We love that so many players want to play MKX and are working (like mad) on all the issues some of you are experiencing! We WILL fix them! — Ed Boon (@noobde) April 16, 2015

Hopefully these issues are addressed, but I actually have had no issue with the game thus far. Besides the PC version, which has had issues, the game seems to have had a fairly solid launch. That's always encouraging to see.
