Mortal Kombat 11 is releasing on the Nintendo Switch, marking the first MK game on a Nintendo system since the series reboot. We noted in a recent hands-on preview that the Switch version was a noticeable visual downgrade, but that it played smoothly and kept the fighting consistent. A new trailer shows both of those aspects in action.

　　It's no surprise that the official Switch trailer emphasizes the on-the-go aspect. The trailer (above) shows a piece of a cutscene before pulling back and showing gameplay on a smaller Switch window playing footage of the fights. It's difficult to see due to the smaller screen size but the fights are a little low-fi compared to what you may have gotten accustomed to seeing in other gameplay trailers and Kombat Kasts.
