How the Story Works

The story mode depends on which side you choose at the beginning of the game. Depending on the side you choose, the other side will be perceived as invaders and as a threat. This allows for some unlikely alliances within the same universe. Eventually, the reason for the fusion of the two worlds is explained in the storyline.
In order to balance the gameplay, some of the more powerful characters' superpowers were altered from their original cannon. For instance, Superman will be vulnerable to things like Scorpion's spear.VideoGamesBlogger.com: Official Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe Characters List
