Versions
Unlike Mortal Kombat, where most of the consoles had different looks and gameplay features, [Mortal Kombat II was consistent throughout all of the consoles. The SNES version displayed a disclaimer, noting that there was blood and violence in the game. The Sega Genesis version also had the blood and fatalities, but the game lacked the look of the SNES version. Also, Goro's Lair was not in the Sega Genesis version, as it was replaced by a level with a blue portal in the background. The Sega Saturn version is considered to be the best version available because of its enhanced look and quick loading times. However, the game lacks the Shao Kahn voice-overs and the female screams by Kitana and Milleena.
