Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (SNES) game description
The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) version was developed by Avalanche Software and published by Williams Entertainment in June 1996 in North America and by Acclaim Entertainment on November 28, 1996 in Europe. The limitations of the system led to many cuts that were made to fit everything on a SNES cartridge: the announcer no longer says the characters’ names; Sheeva was removed, only the five new arcade backgrounds are featured; and Shao Kahn’s Lost Treasures chest has only 10 boxes instead of 12.
Many changes affected the game’s finishing moves: Rain and Noob Saibot have no regular Fatalities or other finishing moves; Kitana’s “Kiss of Death” only inflates heads (the same effect as Kabal’s “Air Pump” Fatality); Sonya Blade’s Friendship from MK3 is used, as opposed to her Friendship from the arcade version of UMK3; Ermac’s Fatality is altered; Scorpion’s “Hellraiser” Fatality is different (he takes the opponent back to the Hell stage, where the opponent simply burns to ash) and is no longer censored like the arcade one. Animality finishing moves were also removed, ironically keeping the Mercy move, which was originally a requirement for Animalities in MK3.
On the other hand, Brutalities were introduced; a finishing move in which the player attacks their opponent with a series of kicks and punches which result in the victim exploding. At the same time, some changes were actually improvements over the arcade version. Rain and Noob Saibot are made into playable characters for the first time. Mileena, Ermac, and Classic Sub-Zero are playable out of the box. Motaro and Shao Kahn are unlockable characters for two-player fights, although only one player can choose a boss at a time.
There is a variety of new levels, some of which are interactive. Characters can uppercut someone, causing them to hit the ground hard and crash through to the bottom floor, or they can knocked someone off a bridge, landing in a pit of spikes.
Players can go against the computer one-on-one, two-on-two, or take part in the 8-fighter tournament.
