Mortal Kombat 1 has already been out for a few days for players that have early access, and many have quickly discovered that its Nintendo Switch port looks a bit… funky.
Hearing that Mortal Kombat 1 would be coming to Switch alongside PlayStation and Xbox, and that it wouldn't be a cloud port, was definitely a welcome surprise initially. It did of course come with questions as to how well it would run, given that the Switch isn't the most powerful console around. Now that people have been able to play it, it's safe to say that while for the most part it's a solid port, there's one area where the game feels a bit off: characters' faces.
Overall, the models honestly look as good as you could expect them to. But when it comes to facial animations, everyone is looking a bit dead-eyed. It's thoroughly in uncanny valley territory, and as you can see below, it turns Johnny Cage from an action movie star into someone that realised they don't have left on this mortal plane and haven't done anything with their life.
